As it is morning here, it's perfect to talk about coffee. I hope you will be having a nice cup of coffee there while reading my this article.... :)
What we are already drinking at the coffee shops are already blended and mixed through the perfection of barista and coffee machines. Combination of intense dark coffee capped by a honey-brown layer of crema or cream; should be rich and rull-bodied, not thin or watery; Ristreto (an intense, concentrated version of espresso); Americano (a shot of espresso with hot water added); Doppio (also known as double espresso); Flat white ( a no-nonsense milky coffee-espresso with hot milk, no froth); Latte (espresso with hot milk and a small head of dense frothed milk pored into it and dusted with chocolate powder); and Coretto (ice blended coffee with liquuor).
Coffee making is not as easy as you see; the preparation, the tools, the choice of ingredients, and [gaining] the expertise [to make] one is very hard. You have to perfect the skills. To keep coffee fresh, always store coffee away from its natural enemies; light, heat, oxygen, and humidity. Purchase coffee as whole beans and grind your own just before you use it, so that the coffee will stay fresh longer. Keep beans whole until ready to grind; then immediately brew the coffee, and grind only what you need.
Store ground coffee or whole coffee in an airtight, opaque canister; ceramic or glass canisters with metal rings that latch shut are also ideal containers for coffee. Never use a plastic container. These substances produce a fair amount of flavor migration and penetration, which will corrupt the coffee.
