Coffee. Additives (types, varieties, producers)

No, the lavazza is delicious. Especially compared to the last Vietnamese. It's scary even for a scrub))

I could not resist and opened one packet of coffee.
How fragrant it is! I brewed it in a finn, my husband ran to the aroma of coffee, although before that he was drinking another coffee from a Turk. I had to share. I drank pure coffee, delicious and aromatic. Now it is even cheaper on the site than I bought.
Very convenient packing of 50 gr. Together with the package it weighs 56g.

🔗

Alla, I also really liked the first two packs of such coffee, I just took the third to work - it even differs in color. Some mysterious story

[Svetlana]

Svetlanawhat coffee? The one that is packaged in 50 grams?
I ordered now (my husband's desire) again 500g, 531r in total.

No, no, the brand of coffee is the same, but the one that comes with the fin is. Like this 🔗

Everyone here is really into Vietnamese coffee, an epidemic. Is it better than Brazilian?
I heard that chocolate is added to coffee for finals, isn't that why it is sold only ground?

I tried to make coffee in a finn at work. The coffee was the most ordinary, I think jockey. Nothing good came of it. I can give the fin if anyone needs it, I'm in St. Petersburg. Fin is the simplest, stainless steel.

[Charlotte]

Charlotte, fin keep yourself. You need good coffee and the right grind, then the coffee will be delicious. I have a grain coffee of this company, but my husband almost ground it into dust, now he brews it in a Turk. Hope it will grind properly for fin.
I can't drink a Jockey ... We are all different.

I ordered Vitka 1517 for myself. And now the question arose. I have only two supermarkets in the vicinity of Bill and Five, a little further on the third Crossroads. Please tell me what kind of coffee to look for a coffee machine?

[Nasturcia]

Nasturcia, is there no dixie? If you have, try the Coffeehouse coffee in black and orange packs with the letter D.

Unfortunately not. Our five survived from neighboring houses Dixie, magnet, string bag.

I ordered two more sets with fin from WB, got a discount, only 410r set came out. Fin is good, all stainless steel and coffee in the set I really like.

Now in O'Key there are two types of Bushido coffee at a good discount (red and beige vacuum bags of 250g each), I like it, I bought it.

[Charlotte]

is it because it is sold only ground

Charlotte, well, why only ground ... the choice of beans is also very large!

There are big discounts in Wanlang until December 2, and when ordering today for an amount of 2 thousand or more, they give a reusable coupon for free shipping until January 31.
I took another set of green tea there - I really liked it that was sent with a teapot from China, I threw out a bag of bulldozer, I still hope to get something like that ...

Please tell me what kind of coffee there to look for a coffee machine

Everyone has different tastes. I would buy one that is made in Italy. I tried, would appreciate the taste and began to look in stores with a large selection. For example, on Ozone.

Today I opened a bag of coffee.

🔗

Strong coffee aroma, very dark color, fine grinding, not suitable for final.
I cooked it in a Turk, it says 100% Arabica, but there is bitterness, so Robusta is added there. I had to add sugar.

My coffee maker came. While drinking with the family Jardine Dessert. If in cappuccino or latte, then it's ok. And separately, too bitter and not enough foam. Another question, how do you get the cake washer? I have porridge with coffee in the horn.

Strong coffee aroma, very dark color, fine grinding, not suitable for final.
I cooked it in a Turk, it says 100% Arabica, but there is bitterness, so Robusta is added there.

Why such a conclusion? The color is very dark (strong roasting) + fine grinding (accelerated extraction) - so they give bitterness. Even French roasted Arabica is bitter. And the Italians are almost all lovers of extra dark roasting, that is, bitter taste And in the description of your coffee just: Country of brand, Country of origin - Italy

I have porridge with coffee in the horn.

Do you have adjustable horn pressure? If not adjustable, add more coffee. In my old Roventa, you can squeeze the horn of coffee harder or weaker, the harder the pressure, the tighter the "coffee pill"

Another question, how do you get the cake washer? I have porridge with coffee in the horn.

Read about Tamper for coffee, a thing just for forming a tablet in a cone

I have a spoon with tempera in the kit. But I probably don't have enough coffee. As a result, the lower risk in the filter does not allow to morning it.

[Nasturcia]

Nasturcia, focus on the taste in the cup, a tablet for a coffee maker of this class is the tenth and unattainable thing.

For a tablet, an autoclamp is needed, as in Rovent, or a whole complex of factors: the correct horn, the correct grinding and filling, a three-way valve (will draw in excess water from the sieve), a temper with a diameter corresponding to the basket, and most importantly - training. YouTube is full of video tutorials.

I made another, third order at Tasty Coffee. So far, everything is very tasty! This time, the varieties hit the "discount of the week" on December 6th. I am already familiar with one variety, I fell in love very much, soft not annoying, absolutely not bitter, Brazil Ipanema Dulce. The second one is still unknown to me, I'll try

Tasty has very tasty coffee, but the aroma is very weak, almost not, I was surprised, I bought 5 different varieties, all of them have a weak aroma when brewing. Here you put your nose in a pack - the aroma is a-abaldet, but you cook and does not smell of anything and there is almost no smell in the cup, I brewed it in drip, espresso and fin, gave it to a neighbor - she brewed in a Turk, she noticed the lack of aroma.

Tasty has very tasty coffee, but the aroma is very weak, almost no, surprised, gave it to a neighbor - she brewed in a Turk, and she drew attention to the lack of aroma.

There is such a moment, also surprised. But for the taste, I forgive them for this lack. I cook ONLY in a Turk, I grind the grains myself before cooking

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila, try their espresso blend with the addition of Ugandan robusta, they smell bright.

Tasty hasn't ordered for a long time, I'll have to return to them somehow. In the summer I fry it myself, and in the winter that's it.

I just bought Bushido, by the way, the same taste-ah-ah, and the smell is weak
With robusta, almost 700r is worth it, well, I'll see if there will be a discount, but I still have to pay for the shipment .. no-no - no

and so I still pay for the shipment .. no-no - no

Sending by Mail is free, from 600 rubles. order or something. When ordering a couple of packs, I always get an amount over 600 rubles.

Hmm, strange, I buy coffee from Tasty all the time. But I cook not in a Turk, but in a coffee machine. The scent is on the whole apartment.

in the coffee machine. The scent is on the whole apartment.

How often? Perhaps, personally, I have already adapted the "scent" to the aromas. I cook two, three times a day))
I remember opening the package for the first time - I almost fell from the aroma in the room

My husband cooks in the morning, in a drip or espresso in Roventa, I sleep behind a closet, we have no walls in our house, after a small city apartment only a bathroom was separated, so there is one room, separated by furniture.So, how the compressor turns on for espresso I hear, but how coffee smells - no, well, there is no smell, everything is fine with my scent and my husband noted this
To receive by mail from our post office is not an option. Notifications do not come, packages are lost, queues for an hour or more. I received CDEK, I typed 5 packets, but I definitely don't need a drain anymore, in general, while Ozone and I are satisfied with coffee.

[Yuri K]

Yuri K, or maybe the aroma of delicious homemade bread interrupts the aroma of coffee

[francevna]

To receive by mail from our post office is not an option. Notifications do not come, packages are lost, queues for an hour or more.

Something you complicate everything ... Mail is now surprisingly working, notifications from the manufacturer itself come by SMS upon sending, order numbers, etc., and duplicated to the mail email. There is no need to wait for notifications at the post office for a long time, a notification has arrived that I have arrived at the office - I go and call my cell number (registered for quick issuance), tell them the code and immediately receive without any filling in forms, etc. But by and large, your business, I don't see any reason to persuade But with transport computers, yes, you need to order a ton there (just kidding), to organize free of charge, I immediately dismissed this option for myself, and it takes half a day to get to transport in my city by transport, well, nafig ...
On the 5th day, he comes to me by mail, mainly from Izhevsk. The fried grains just have time to "rest".



francevna, well, of course not if no kidding! Apparently, I got used to it, although it's true, when opening the pack and serving milk - the aroma is incomparable, but when cooking - I hardly feel it

I also have a scent for the whole apartment from fresh Tasty coffee
I cook in a coffee machine.

How often? Perhaps, personally, I have already adapted the "scent" to the aromas. I cook two, three times a day))

I only cook in the morning. Smells even on the second floor)
But my coffee is always fresh. I buy often and little by little

But my coffee is always fresh. I buy often and little by little

So am I the same way! Two packs of 250g. just enough for a month

Coffee machine. Scent throughout the house. I fry myself. There is a coffee grinder. 250g for a couple of weeks.
Here is freshly roasted Guatemala. Apple marshmallow on top, for the entourage.

Well, I don't know, maybe I bought the wrong varieties, but there are 5 different ones, there is no aroma, but they are ground, but they are stored in the refrigerator (until I open them). I don't bake bread every day and in the evening, and my husband drinks coffee every morning, and there is no aroma

yes they are ground

Maybe that's the case? I take in grains.

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila, Notices for half a year are not brought. The track is being tracked, I receive it by SMS.

I noticed that aroma is not always associated with taste. Perhaps she just sniffed, but in the coffee shop you can even hear the intoxicating aroma of coffee.

Peace be with you bakers!

7 unusual coffee facts you didn't know

Coffee is an amazing drink that people all over the world love to drink. Many people cannot start their day without a cup of morning coffee. Of course, there is a lot of talk about the dangers of caffeine, that coffee reduces the amount of calcium in the bones and negatively affects the work of the heart, but this drink also has a number of beneficial properties.

In particular, researchers recently found that coffee drinkers are less prone to suicide than non-coffee drinkers. The risk of suicide attempts among coffee addicts is reduced by 50% due to the effects of caffeine, since it affects the production of serotonin and dopamine in the body - neurotransmitters associated with emotion.

This is not the only useful property of coffee - we bring to your attention a few more facts about it that we learned.

1. Coffee invigorates only the lazy
Coffee is a great incentive for those who like to be lazy. For such people, coffee is an excellent stimulant, but for workaholics, on the contrary, it is contraindicated in this quality, since it produces the opposite effect.
Psychologist Jay Hocking came to this conclusion by experimenting on rats.Like humans, rats tend to look for ways out of various situations and solve problems they face - for example, going through a maze. It turned out that caffeine significantly reduced the activity of the most mobile rodents. The same rats that were initially "lazy" began to behave more actively after caffeine.
An interesting fact is that coffee invigorates women more than men: women after a few cups become more energetic, and men start to work slower and doubt the results.

2. Coffee helps with a hangover
The most unpleasant part of a hangover is a headache - severe migraines can completely poison your mood and prevent you from concentrating on work. Unfortunately, getting rid of a hangover migraine is sometimes difficult even with the help of analgesics.
However, coffee is great for a hangover headache. Painful sensations are formed due to the formation of acetate in the body under the influence of ethanol. Coffee helps block the conversion of acetaldehyde to acetate and, as a result, relieve pain. Just do not get too carried away with this method of treatment - for a person with an average body weight, a cup of coffee with a volume of 100–150 ml is enough.

3. You can brew tea from coffee
The taste of the drink made from the leaves of the coffee tree is no less interesting than the taste of the drink made from its beans. Tea that can be brewed from coffee leaves is not as strong as coffee itself, but it has a rich taste without the usual tea bitterness.
What's more, coffee tea contains less caffeine and more antioxidants than regular black tea, and also reduces the risk of diabetes and heart disease due to its high levels of special compounds.

4. Coffee can be simply inhaled
Especially for people who cannot imagine their life without caffeine, but for some reason cannot regularly drink coffee, a portable inhaler "AeroShot" was developed, which looks like a plastic cylinder the size of a hunting cartridge. Each device contains 100 mg of caffeine. In fact, it is a zero-calorie alternative to coffee and other energy drinks.
To take a dose of caffeine, you just need to pull out the bottom green edge of the cartridge and inhale. The total amount in the inhaler is enough for six to eight puffs. You don't have to consume everything at once, but close the valve and leave some of the caffeine for later.

5. Safe dose of caffeine - 400 mg per day
Each person reacts to caffeine differently depending on their metabolism. It has long been established that overuse of coffee can adversely affect health, and the safe dose of caffeine for each person is individual and depends on both physiology and the way the substance is consumed.
A 2003 study found that a safe dose of caffeine for a healthy adult is 400 mg per day (approximately 500 mg of coffee). A large dose can cause heart problems or negative mood changes.
However, one should not forget that pregnant women need to reduce this rate by almost half, since an excess of caffeine in the body increases the likelihood of miscarriage. In addition, smokers should also consume less coffee than non-smokers because their body cleans itself more slowly.

6. Caffeine helps you to accept a point of view that is different from your own
Caffeine can have a special effect on the brain: in particular, it helps you agree with a statement that you previously disagreed with, because it increases the brain's ability to perceive the logic of other people's judgments.
True, the more distracted during the discussion of a particular issue by something that is not related to the subject of the conversation, the less likely it is to convince the opponent, since he will not be able to focus on the topic and pay due attention to the arguments given.

7. The most expensive coffee in the world is made from elephant poop
This type of coffee is called "Black Tusk" and is made in Thailand.Thai elephants are fed with the fruits of coffee, the beans are not completely digested in their intestines and are excreted along with the excrement, and thanks to the digestion process and the effect of stomach acid, the drink from the beans processed in this way has a special rich and mild taste without the usual coffee bitterness. In addition, other foods that elephants commonly eat, such as bananas and sugar cane, also influence the taste of the grains. On average, an animal takes about 15-30 hours to digest the fruit of coffee.
The cost of this type of coffee is $ 1100 per kg, but if you just want to try it, then you will have to pay $ 50 for a cup. The cost is due to the fact that keeping elephants in nature reserves is not so cheap. In addition, elephants are specially fed only with Thai Arabica coffee grown at an altitude of 1500 m, while elephants need to eat about 32 kg of coffee fruits to produce one kg of coffee beans.

[Anatoly]

Anatoly, I would like to make tea from the leaves of the coffee tree.

[Yuri K]

Yuri K,, completely disappointed in the store-bought grain coffee, before with pleasure I drank Paulig "Arabica", but now it has become sour ... most likely they cheat in Tver, now I drink Lavazza "ORO", but I want freshly roasted. Advise which variety to order in Testikof for the Turks (Brazil wanted Ipanema Dulce, but not now).

[Natalia]

Paulig used to drink Arabica with pleasure, but now he has become sour ...

Natalia, I thought my taste had changed. But after making Vietnamese coffee in fin, even my husband does not want Paulig "Arabica", and I have another kg of coffee beans.

[GuGu]

GuGu,
ordered: Honduras San Marcos, Vietnam Tai Nguyen, Colombia Dulima, Brazil Mojiana, Mexico Chiapas. Believe it or not - almost all are delicious !!! The only one that disappointed Colombia Doolima is none at all. The "aroma" from purely cooked, immediately from cezve, by some kind of dental office, more precisely by the preparations used in dentistry, seemed especially disgusting. Milk added to coffee after 3-4 minutes softened this "aroma", but still I could not drink it with pleasure. I recommend Honduras San Marcos, for me he was in second place after Brazil Ipanema Dulce, more brutal than Impanema.
I don't order fresh roast in kilos. Only to spoil the taste, the grain should not lie for more than a couple of months. Better to place an order in a month or two. Moreover, there is free delivery by Mail, if the order is from 600 rubles (maybe now that has changed, I ordered the last time almost two months ago)

[Yuri K]

Yuri K, I will order !!! According to the description, I think I will also like Italian Roast and Brazil Cerrado. Thank you!!!

People! I want my relatives as a present (February 23, March 8 and birthdays - March and April) to order freshly roasted beans in a test coffee. They recently bought themselves a coffee machine with a built-in coffee grinder, and are wildly delighted with it. What can you advise?

in

Start simple - take signature espresso mixes from your father-in-law.

Today I accidentally found a Korean way of making dalgon coffee in Tyrnet

The ratio of coffee: sugar: water is 1: 1: 1, this mixture is whipped with a blender to "standing peaks", then put into milk, mixed and drunk. They write you can replace whipping with a blender 400 by stirring with a spoon by hand. Milk should be much more than a mixture of coffee, sugar and water, otherwise it is insanely strong.




But I don't really understand, instant coffee or something !? It's just getting to me

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila, it would be interesting to know if there is pure coffee in the bag or there are any additives. I can also stir soluble in this way, but not for long, only dilute with water and add a little milk.

I report - I tried it! Only foolishly poured hot milk (oh no need ...). Mixed at the rate of one measuring tablespoon for 350 ml of milk, instant Vietnamese coffee pure (no additives). Delicious!
