Preparing coffee<\/strong> has become a real daily ritual for many of us. We enjoy it in the morning, in the office while we work and when we meet other people. But do you prepare it correctly? From AlterNativa3 we want to talk to you about some common mistakes.<\/p>\n

What is your favourite type of coffee?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

This is the first question you should ask yourself. Even if it is not your case, many people would not know how to answer it. We often drink coffee as a social activity and don't stop to think about its nuances.<\/p>\n

However, coffee from Colombia will not taste the same as coffee from Nicaragua. Depending on whether we are in the mood for something more intense or milder, one type or another will be better. Therefore, a first step is to get to know the different options available on the market. At AlterNativa3 we have a wide variety of Fairtrade coffees<\/a><\/strong> to choose from.<\/p>\n

Don't keep your coffee in the cupboard!<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

If you are one of those people who prefer to buy coffee already ground, it is important not to store it in the cupboard. It will oxidise and lose flavour, so it is best to store it in the cupboard. in an airtight container and in the refrigerator<\/strong>The new rules are designed to preserve its nuances.<\/p>\n

Water, more important than you think when it comes to coffee making<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Do you use tap water when making coffee? This will give a flavour that could mask the more subtle nuances of the coffee. It is therefore important that you pay enough attention to this aspect, so that its minerals do not have a negative effect in this respect.<\/p>\n

So how do you prepare coffee correctly?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

That said, let's briefly explain how to prepare a good coffee. The first thing to do? Take your favourite coffee out of the fridge and choose a quality water.<\/p>\n

When adding coffee to the filter, don't crush it with the spoon<\/strong>. Let it have some air in it so that the water can pass through properly.<\/p>\n

Then you move on to the actual preparation of your coffee. One point to note here is that the lid of the coffee maker is merely a safety feature. If you are careful not to spill the coffee, you can prepare your coffee with the lid open. What you get in this way is that, because it takes longer, the water is in contact with the coffee for a longer period of time<\/strong>so that it takes on more flavour.<\/p>\n

And at what temperature to serve it? Ideally, it should be served at 60\u00ba C, so that it is at 55\u00ba C when it rests in the cup. This is the ideal state to capture all the nuances of each bean.<\/p>\n
