Where and how can you find the world’s best coffee? You can actually get ‘the perfect cup’ right at your home or office! Here is a recipe for the perfect cup. Make sure you meet all the criteria in order to attain the best coffee.
Step 1: Your coffee roaster/retailer must have the very best quality green coffee beans available. Coffee is as good as its source. Therefore, it is essential that you find a coffee roasting company that imports from an excellent green coffee farm. You also need to know which type of coffee beans you prefer – Arabica or Robusta. The difference between the two specifies was discussed in this blog.
Step 2: You must purchase fresh roasted AND whole bean from a reputable local roasting company. You need to make sure your coffee is not stale. The vast majority of coffee that can be purchased in grocery stores, convenience stores, and in many specialty stores is stale because roasted coffee is perishable. In whole bean, as an example, the quality diminishes after 10-15 days.
Step 3: You must find out what your favorite coffees are. What is your favorite coffee in terms of origin, altitude, type, roast? Planet Coffee can help you in this regard.
Step 5: It must be properly ground. It depends on what you are drinking, but if it’s a pour-over coffee then we suggest you get a good burr grinder that allows for an accurate and consistent grind adjustment. If you like French press, medium or dark-roasted coffee beans ground in a coarse setting usually work best.
Step 6: It must be properly brewed. You are very likely to experience the perfect cup when you use bottled or filtered water because coffee is 98% water. It’s also beneficial to consider brewing time, temperature and the right dose of coffee beans.
