Are there tricks that make the coffee taste more - or better? We share some good tricks to make home coffee - and other things - taste a little better. Buy whole beans and grind yourself - ready-ground coffee quickly loses flavor. Invest in a proper grinder for home use (eg a Wilfa that you can buy from us): always grind just before you brew. Never grind more than you currently need. Always store beans in their original packaging, tightly closed (with a clip) - make sure there is as little air as possible in the bag. Store the coffee at room temperature (it is a myth that it should be stored in the freezer). Coffee is a fresh product: rather buy a really small package with whole beans than a large one if the consumption is small. Dare to try something new: there are many different options in both grocery stores and specialty stores. Dare to try something other than dark roast: the taste does NOT get better because the beans are roasted too hard. Then many subtle flavors disappear instead. Do not overdose on the amount of coffee: the risk is that the coffee tastes bitter. Use good milk: at Espresso House we use so-called Latte Art milk. It is extra good when steaming the milk creamy to e.g. caffè latte or cappuccino. Steam stick COLD milk: it gets better then. När du ångspinner mjölk: se till att nosen på ångröret är strax under ytan när du börjar för att långsamt sänka röret längre ned i mjölken varefter den blir varm. Om det "tjuter" i röret - då gör du fel! Tvätta ALLTID ångröret direkt efter att du använt det - annars blir det svårt att få rent då mjölken bränner fast. Tänk på att mjölkbaserade kaffedrycker är en färskvara: att hålla dem varma i t.ex. en termokopp gör dem ingen rättvisa. Drick och njut direkt! Köp en porslinsfilterhållare och brygg direkt i koppen: häll färskmalet kaffe i filtret, fukta kaffet med nyuppkokt vatten. Låt svälla något. Tillsätt sedan resten av vattnet jämt och långsamt. Otroligt gott. Eller köp en Chemexbryggare (säljs i våra coffee shops) och brygg som ett riktigt proffs. Do not heat brew coffee. Do as in our coffee shops: store the freshly brewed coffee in a thermos of good quality. If coffee is heated too much and for too long, it becomes bitter. Do not use boiling / boiling water for green tea. It should have slightly cooler water. Pour a little cold water into the hot, or put in a small piece of ice. To get the same consistency on your chai at home, it is best to steam spin the milk or - if you do not have the opportunity to steam spin - whip it up when it is heated. Then mix with the chai powder (can be bought at our coffee shops).
