When you buy whole coffee beans, do you automatically grind them before brewing your coffee? Do you shy away from buying whole beans because you don’t have a coffee grinder? Well, it may be time to try brewing whole bean coffee.
To make sure your whole bean coffee comes out as well as can be, you’ll want to follow these instructions and choose the best coffee. Alex’s Low-Acid Organic Coffee tastes great and is gentle on the stomach, and the coffee beans are the freshest possible. Here’s what you should know about how to prepare the perfect drink from whole bean coffee.
Why Make Coffee from Whole Beans?
Everyone makes coffee from ground coffee, so why would you even consider making whole bean coffee? There are some reasons to make coffee from whole beans.
First, it can give you a more consistent brew. That’s because coffee grinders have blades that can chop coffee beans unevenly. The pieces of coffee beans can be different sizes and shapes, which means that they will brew unevenly, just like you’ll get unevenly cooked meat or vegetables if you don’t cut them to be the same size.
The smaller pieces of coffee beans will release more flavors as they cook more. They may be more bitter. The larger pieces may not cook as much, and can provide a weaker flavor.
Another reason to make whole bean coffee is that it’s the freshest way to make your coffee. When beans are ground, they expose more surfaces to oxygen, which can cause oxidation and rancidity. They might also become more moist, which can reduce the coffee’s flavor.
Finally, it’s fun and different to make whole bean coffee. If you like playing around in the kitchen, or if you’re interested in immersing yourself in your coffee experience, this is a way to do it. It takes about an hour for the coffee to brew, which gives you plenty of time to savor the aroma as you go about your business and wait for your coffee to be ready.
