To choose the type of coffee that is ideal for you, you need to try different varieties. Compounds contained in natural beans stimulate taste buds, so we experience different shades and aromas, but these sensations are highly individual.

Tips for choosing coffee based on personal preferences

We are all unique, just like coffee. So when choosing, focus on your taste preferences.

• If you want a clean and acidic taste, choose 100% Arabica coffee and light roast.
• If you prefer a richer taste, with a predominance of bitterness and a dense body, then choose coffee from a mixture of varieties or even types.
• A mixture of Arabica and Robusta will be tart, the more Robusta it contains, the more caffeine it contains.
• The darker the roast of coffee, the more bitter the taste of the drink.

How to store coffee properly

After finding the perfect coffee, the question arises of how to store it.
The maximum flavor palette of coffee will be revealed in a cup if no more than three months have passed since roasting . Do not buy coffee for future use. Coffee is a living product, it is better to buy it more often and in small portions.

Coffee should be stored in a dark place, without oxygen . It is desirable that there are no pungent smelling substances nearby.

There is an opinion that coffee can be frozen to extend its freshness. Unfortunately, this method is not very effective. Indeed, it is possible to preserve freshness this way, but only if you defrost the coffee in portions for one-time use. If you put a large amount of coffee in the freezer and then defrost it in parts, the coffee will absorb a lot of moisture and aromas.

Storing coffee beans or ground coffee

One of the important questions is how best to store coffee: ground or beans. To extract maximum flavor and aroma substances, it is recommended to grind coffee immediately before brewing. If it is not possible to grind coffee every time, we recommend buying ground coffee in small quantities.

It is important to remember: the larger the area of ​​contact between coffee and oxygen, the faster it will lose its taste.

Keeping Coffee Fresh

The only way to get a consistently good cup of coffee is to always use freshly ground and freshly roasted coffee. Nowadays, it is possible to order coffee regularly without stocking up on it.
