For those who are not yet well-versed in the world of coffee, there can be one too many questions about the beverage/ the beans that puzzle them.
Every once in a while, we also come across some questions that are common. So in this blog post, we’re going to be answering a few of these for the coffee community.
What Coffee Has the Least Milk?
Originally, coffee was consumed without any milk. It was only several hundred years later that the practice of adding milk and other ingredients became common. Americano is a coffee that has no milk in it. You can also consider a macchiato. It contains the least milk out of all other milk-based coffee drinks.
What Coffee Has the Most Caffeine?
The caffeine quotient in a cup is affected by several factors. For starters, the bean itself. Robusta beans are known to have the most caffeine. Secondly, the roast level also determines how much caffeine there is in the coffee. 1 scoop of light roast coffee will have slightly more caffeine than 1 scoop of dark roast.
Where Did Coffee Originate?
Records suggest that the coffee plant, Coffea arabica, originated in a region of Ethiopia. From there, it was taken to Yemen, and gradually to the rest of the world.
Which Coffee Maker is the Best?
There is no universal answer to this question because every coffee brew gear has its own pros and cons. If you like a full-bodied brew, a Moka pot may be the best option for you. On the other hand, if you prefer convenience and quick brewing, a pod home espresso machine would be a good choice. So assess what is important to you and then choose a coffee maker that is the most suitable.
Where is Coffee Grown?
Coffee is grown along the Bean Belt. It is a strip of area going all the way around the earth. Located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, the regions in India where coffee is grown also lie within the Bean Belt. The environmental conditions in this area are ideal for coffee cultivation.
When Does Coffee Taste Sour?
Coffee should not taste sour. If it does, there can be a couple of different reasons for it. First, you should make sure that the coffee hasn’t gone bad or stale. Then, check if the coffee machine has been thoroughly cleaned to prevent any buildup from affecting the flavours in the cup. If you’ve ruled out both of these, the sourness could be a result of under-extraction. Using the right water temperature, the coffee grounds should be brewed for long enough to get an even extraction.
Are All Coffee Pods Compatible With All Machines?
No, coffee pods are specifically manufactured to suit certain coffee machines. For instance, our specialty South Indian filter kaapi pods are compatible with Nespresso machines. Before buying coffee pods, do your due diligence to make sure they are suitable with the gear you own.
Are Coffee Grounds Good For Plants?
Ground coffee has more than just one use, you know. Apart from making a stellar beverage, it is said to be useful for a home garden because coffee contains minerals which are good for the plants. However, it should not be used as a fertilizer substitute and only in moderation. Coffee can make the soil more acidic, which isn’t suitable for all plants.
What is Espresso?
The term “espresso” can be used to mean a type of coffee drink or coffee brewing method in which hot water is passed through tightly packed ground coffee at a high pressure to extract flavour compounds.
