Coffee Territory

• It turns out that coffee is not only for reading its grounds. It gives a polish to produces made from dark leather. For that you can wrap moist grounds into the woolen rag and wipe leather’s surface.
• If you make coffee with strong drinks and you would like to decrease its proof, you can bring a beverage to a boil.
• One of the way to check freshness of coffee beans is to take one bean and crack it – if it turns crispy and tasty, it means that coffee is fresh. If the bean is chewing like rubber and besides tastes bitter, then coffee is not very clean and we advise do not use it.
• Ground coffee should be kept in china-ware or glass dishes, but not in metallic.
• Roasted coffee beans should be kept in hermetic containers. It protects coffee from off-flavors and loss of aroma. Roast as much coffee as it necessary for one dose. It is recommended to keep roasted coffee no more than a week. Store it in the dry and cool place, otherwise it will lose its qualities very quickly.
• Before grinding, look through and sort out coffee beans. After that, cut dockages out, because they worsen quality of beverage and may lead to coffee-grinder’s breakage. As far as possible it will be better to grind beans before its making. In this case you will get more flavored drink. Coffee should be roasted on a slow fire while continuous mixing. For coffee making use only fresh water. Already boiled water is unfit. It is better to use treated water.
• Make coffee in such a way, that for its readiness you can at once pour it into the cups. Prolonged infusion worsens coffee qualities. Do not warm up cool coffee. For the second time it is impossible to get a good drink. If it is necessary, you can keep coffee on water bath or in the thermos. Before making, swill coffee-pot with a hot water. Make coffee in china, ceramic, glassy, enamel wares or in stainless steel coffee-pots. The coffee-pots from oxidizing materials spoil taste, as well as they are of little help.
• Add a half of teaspoon into the coffee-pot with ready coffee. In this case the sediment will sink faster into the bottom.
• Some grains of salt before coffee making strengthen its aroma and improve its taste.
