How do you drink your coffee?
Coffee is part of our day-to-day routine like almost no other food. It is taken for granted, served in thermos jugs and, if necessary, heated in the microwave… Did you know that coffee is not black but rather reddish brown?
Punch line: Many people don’t know. And that’s actually a shame, because so many of the nuances and flavors of coffee may be lost in the process of making it. Coffee is prepared too hot, too fast and in too high quantities. There are many things that should not be done with coffee, but today we would rather compile what can be done quite simply (even at home) correctly.
