Do you wake up each morning to a pot of coffee that makes your nose twist? Have you dumbed down your tastebuds to the point where you'll even settle for a cup of instant?
When most of us want fine food we go to our favorite restaurant, or some of us might prepare our own meals at home. But when it comes to coffee, we rarely even ask, "is this premium, gourmet coffee?" Why not? Don't we deserve the best cup of coffee we can find?
Gourmet coffee sounds expensive but the reality is that coffee is extremely affordable, unless of course you're buying it at Starbucks every day.
To make your own gourmet coffee, start with the coffee beans. Gourmet Coffee beans can be purchased in several forms, by the pound or by the kilo and so on and there are several varieties from which to choose. Some of the most admired gourmet coffee beans include Kona, Jamaican Blue Mountain, and Sumatra types.
One of the tricks to preparing an amazing cup of gourmet coffee is to start with the beans. Don't buy pre-ground coffee as the grounds can dry. When left in whole bean form, the coffee bean protects its amazing freshness and flavor until the moment you brew it.
Coffee beans, like wine, are named after their region of origin. For instance the Kona Bean is grown in the volcanic soil of Kona, Hawaii. Kona beans are known for their rich, smooth flavor.
So now you need to grind your beans but in order to do so you need a grinder. There are a number of different grinders on the market, CoffeeMate makes a pretty good one as does Black and Decker. The grinders are on the low end of the price scale and give you limited control over the consistency.
Our favorite way to brew coffee is with a french press. French press coffee has a very bold flavor and makes just about any other coffee seem tame in comparison.
It is now time to dump out the old grinds and bring in the beans. Start grinding your way to the freshest way to start any morning today. - 24553
