Coffea species are shrubs or small trees native to tropical and southern Africa and tropical Asia. The seeds of some species, called coffee beans, are used to flavor various beverages and products.]]> 2021-04-06 19:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388730973 Harvesting of coffee luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388734937 Traditionally coffee is harvested by hand by one of two ways: strip picking or selective picking. Strip picking is exactly how it sounds, trees are harvested entirely at one time "stripping" all the beans off the branches, ripe as well as unripe cherries. Typically, only Robusta coffee is strip picked.]]> 2021-04-06 19:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388734937 Green coffee beans luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388745070  When the “seeds” or beans are removed from the fruit (cherry) of the coffee plant, they are green. Later, after they have been roasted, they take on their characteristic, dark brown color. Green coffee beans are dried and cleaned in preparation for roasting. If you want to roast your on your own, this is the state in which you will receive them. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:10:34 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388745070 Coffee roasting luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388757585 Roasting coffee transforms the chemical and physical properties of green coffee beans into roasted coffee products. The roasting process is what produces the characteristic flavor of coffee by causing the green coffee beans to change in taste. Unroasted beans contain similar if not higher levels of acids, protein, sugars, and caffeine as those that have been roasted, but lack the taste of roasted coffee beans due to the Maillard and other chemical reactions that occur during roasting. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:13:55 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388757585 Commercial coffee roasteries luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388761680  The vast majority of coffee is roasted commercially on a large scale, but small-scale commercial roasting has grown significantly with the trend toward "single-origin" coffees served at specialty shops. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:15:02 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388761680 Home coffee roasting - courtesy of Vlado :) luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388767521  Some coffee drinkers even roast coffee at home as a hobby in order to both experiment with the flavor profile of the beans and ensure the freshest possible roast. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388767521 Roasts - ask us to give you more info on this topic luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388795865  Sound is a good indicator of temperature during roasting. There are two temperature thresholds called "cracks" that roasters listen for. At approximately 196 °C (385 °F), the coffee will emit a cracking sound. This point is referred to as "first crack," marking the beginnings of a "light roast". At first crack, a large amount of the coffee's moisture has been evaporated and the beans will increase in size. When the coffee reaches approximately 224 °C (435 °F), it emits a "second crack", this sound represents the structure of the coffee starting to collapse. If the roast is allowed to progress further, it begins to take on the characteristics of the roasting process and loses the characteristics of the coffee's origin. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:24:21 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388795865 Coffee grinders luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388805818  Nothing compares to freshly ground coffee. Roasted coffee beans contain a number volatile aromatic substances, as well as captured carbon dioxide. Some of these can vanish in a matter of seconds after grinding the beans. For any coffee lover, a grinder isn't a matter of luxury, but a matter of necessity. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388805818 Lever espresso machine luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388810536 A spring piston lever works via an internal spring that pushes water through our ground coffee under pressure. The barista uses a lever (i.e. pulls the shot) to force the spring to compress. This ensures the water is at a perfect brewing temperature to avoid bitter shots. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:28:23 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388810536 Moka pot luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388820646 The moka pot is a stove-top or electric coffee maker that brews coffee by passing boiling water pressurised by steam through ground coffee. Named after the Yemeni city of Mocha, it was invented by Italian engineer Alfonso Bialetti in 1933 and quickly became one of the staples of Italian culture.]]> 2021-04-06 19:31:22 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388820646 V60 luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388823244 The V60 Coffee Dripper (also referred to as the V60 Coffee Maker) is made by Hario. Filter paper is inserted into the V shape and coffee grounds placed within the filter paper. The brewed coffee then drips into your cup, delivering a great coffee.]]> 2021-04-06 19:32:09 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388823244 AeroPress luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388829563  The AeroPress is a manual coffeemaker invented by Alan Adler, founder of AeroPress, Inc., formerly Aerobie, Inc. It consists of a cylindrical chamber, and a plunger with an airtight silicone seal, similar to a syringe. Ground coffee beans and water are steeped inside, then forced through a filter by pressing the plunger through the chamber. It is capable of brewing highly concentrated coffee, which the manufacturer describes as "espresso style", but can also be used to brew filter strength coffee, or cold brew coffee.[1]]]> 2021-04-06 19:34:01 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388829563 Turkish coffee luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388836185 Turkish coffee is very finely ground coffee brewed by boiling. Any coffee bean may be used; arabica varieties are considered best, but robusta or a blend is also used. The coffee grounds are left in the coffee when served.]]> 2021-04-06 19:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388836185 Espresso machine luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388843037   An espresso machine brews coffee by forcing pressurized water near boiling point through a "puck" of ground coffee and a filter in order to produce a thick, concentrated coffee called espresso. ]]> 2021-04-06 19:37:55 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388843037 Nitro cold brew machine luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388858835 The nitro cold brew works in a very simple way. Nitrogen doesn't dissolve easily in water making the coffee brew thicker and foamy. So, how does it works? The cold brew coffee inside a canister is given a shot of nitrogen or nitrous oxide through a high-pressure valve. The infusion creates a bubbling, creamy, and frothy concoction.]]> 2021-04-06 19:42:25 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388858835 Homemade cold brew luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388863071 Grind the coffee coarsely, which you can do yourself at home or wherever you buy the beans. Combine the grounds with water, then let it steep overnight, or for around 12 hours. During this time, the coffee slowly infuses into the water, creating a strong, concentrated brew.]]> 2021-04-06 19:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388863071 French Press luciadolincova https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388870867  Easy to brew and super consistent, the French Press is very reliable.

The prepared coffee is then poured off from the top.]]> 2021-04-06 19:48:45 UTC https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1388879727 PuckPuck Cold Brew dripper https://padlet.com/luciadolincova/sl1v997xaa8y6029/wish/1390366569 Slow dripped coffee through an Aeropress coffee maker.
