This Week’s Brew: Understanding Coffee Beans
1. Single-Origin vs. Blends:
- Single-Origin: Coffee beans sourced from a single location, offering unique flavours that reflect the region's terroir. These are perfect for those who love to explore distinct taste profiles. - Blends: A mix of beans from different regions, skilfully combined to create a balanced and complex flavour. Blends are ideal for those who enjoy a consistent taste in every cup.
2. Roast Levels:
- Light Roast: Retains most of the beans' original flavours, often fruity and acidic. Great for pour-over or drip coffee. - Medium Roast: Offers a balance between the beans' natural flavours and the roasting process, resulting in a smoother, more rounded taste. Perfect for any brewing method. - Dark Roast: Rich, bold, and often with a smoky flavour. Ideal for espresso or French press.
