How do you make the tastiest coffee?

Making a nice cup of coffee is pretty simple and you just do it at home! There are several ways to make a tasty coffee. Read below to find out what you need to do this.

Coffee Machine

Making good coffee starts with a good coffee maker. This is because the coffee machine has a great influence on how your cup of coffee will be. Of course you want especially good coffee, but what machine do you need?

A coffee cup machine, coffee pod machine, cafetière, percolator, piston machine or a bean machine? With one you use ready-made cups or pads and with the other filter coffee or coffee beans. It is often said that bean coffee is the tastiest coffee, but actually it is a matter of taste.

Do you have a machine for filter coffee? Then you can also make your own filter coffee from your coffee beans. With a coffee grinder

you can easily grind your favorite coffee beans to the right consistency.

Good coffee

No matter what machine you have, the coffee you use determines the taste. Good quality coffee simply tastes so much better than lower quality coffee.

There are all kinds of factors that affect the quality of coffee. The place where the coffee is grown is one of those factors. For example, coffee beans from Ethiopia taste very different from beans from Brazil. There is no single answer to what makes the tastiest coffee beans, this is completely person dependent.

How the coffee is roasted also determines its taste and quality. Whether you end up using coffee beans, ground coffee or filter coffee, you will always notice how the coffee is roasted. The darker the beans, the more intense the bitter taste. Lightly roasted coffee tends to be more bright and sweeter.

Which coffee suits me best?

Do you like a firm and slightly bitter taste to your coffee? And do you like strong coffee or espresso? Chances are that you prefer dark roasted beans. Often these are Robusta beans, which have an intense taste of their own. Finely ground coffee is also a good choice for those who like bitter coffee. The coffee then has plenty of time to infuse and automatically becomes a lot more bitter.

Are you more of a fan of mild coffee with a rounded taste? Then Arabica beans are the best choice in combination with a lighter roast and perhaps a slightly coarser grind. The extraction of the coffee then takes less time and the result is softer and milder.
Do you still find coffee too strong, despite adjusting the grind and the roast? Then coffee with milk is probably just your thing. Try a cappuccino, flat white, latte macchiato or latte. Coffee variants with milk are best prepared with a whole milk but vegetable variants are also readily available these days.

Espresso

The ultimate strong coffee is, of course, an espresso. This is a small and strong cup of coffee of Italian origin that is prepared in a special way. The coffee grind for an espresso is very fine and the hot water is pressed through the coffee under high pressure. This way you get the typical strong coffee with a nice layer of crema.

For anyone with an espresso coffee machine, special espresso coffee beans are available. At Boot Koffie we have more than 12 different types of espresso beans in our range. These are all delicious espresso coffee beans that are freshly roasted all the time. You can also order ground espresso beans from us so you can enjoy strong coffee without a coffee grinder.

Decaffeinated

Are you such a big coffee lover that you prefer to drink coffee all day long? Then it might be wise to have a decaffeinated cup of coffee every now and then. Too much caffeine can cause you to become restless and have trouble falling asleep.

Decaffeinated coffee is often a neglected option. And yet there are delicious and high-quality decaffeinated coffee beans available. Unfortunately, cheap and lower quality coffee beans are often used to make decaffeinated coffee, which is a shame. Boot Koffie uses top quality coffee beans for its decaffeinated coffees, which are carefully decaffeinated. The result is a decaf coffee that is powerful and full of flavor.

Delicious decaffeinated coffee can of course be found in the webshop of Boot Koffie. Our decaffeinated coffee beans have a very fresh overtone and a soft body. You will notice that it differs little from regular coffee. Experience it yourself!
