Hot Coffee is still the most popular coffee drink, though there are modern iced coffee drinks or blended drinks have been introduced. Due to its symbols as social symbol for all generations, different ways of preparing coffee have been made.In spite of all that hot coffee is still the champion.
To Prepare Hot Coffee Correctly
The Right Temperature
The right temperature is required if you want to fully appreciate the palatable taste. You might risk of scalding your tongue if the water used to brew or mix the coffee is too hot, and you drink it immediately. What you have to do is wait for hot coffee to cool a little, this can be tricky because it may cool too much and therefore decrease its taste. If you let it stand in an open container for over 30 minutes the flavor deteriorates and in the end it gives you a bitter taste.
For those who do not use the brewer or drip coffee maker to brew coffee, the best temperature for brewing coffee is just off the boil, that is around 195 degrees. It is also the right temperature for extracting the correct flavor from the beans. Off the boil means after the water has reached a rolling boil you put it aside. Then wait for 2 minutes before serving.
Ideally, serving coffee at 165 - 175 degrees is the right temperature. This is sufficient enough to keep the flavor of the coffee. Letting it stand can lower the heat, however at the same time when it is left standing for too long, the flavor of the brew will be compromised. So be careful, you have to wait for it to stand so that over standing will not occur. If you use cups it cools faster than brewed coffee in a carafe or an air pot. The air pot is the best way to keep you brewed coffee since it is airtight and it prevents the coffee to cool quickly.
For most coffee lovers, they do not drink coffee in the morning only, but at any time after their meals or during their breaks. Some serious drinker even have hot coffee or cold coffee at night.
Hot coffee can be additive because it is a gentle stimulant which coffee lovers love.
