Place of origin and kind of green coffee beans
Generally medium-roast coffee has been distributed except special coffee shops due to distribution difficulties, but dark roast is highly recommended if tasting acidity and bitters of coffee. New generation has preferred light and medium roast, American style coffee. If you are a coffee mania, please find the real taste of coffee by dark roast coffee that has not been available due to distribution problem. For example, Stabux becomes favorite coffee in U.S.A by dark roast. The taste of coffee greatly depends on roasting process and therefore the coffee beans should be roasted suitably to my own taste.
Even well-roasted coffee should decide how to grind under the types of coffee makers. Generally for Espresso coffee and a coffee-brew maker using a paper filter coffee beans should be ground fine, and for Percolator coffee and a coffee maker using a metal filter beans should be ground coarse.
For extracting apparatus an electric coffee-brew maker that uses a paper filter, heats quickly and drips is recommended. It is available in the market. For coffee manias Espresso machine for home is recommended. Tab water makes coffee with superior taste rather than spring water or mineral water. The final factor to decide the coffee flavor is mixing proportion of coffee and water. The mixing proportion suitable to your own taste depends on your significant experience. Americans mix 3-4g coffee(1 spoon, 15ml) in 150cc water, Europeans do 5-6g coffee(1 1/4 spoons, 20ml). CR-100 made by Imex makes the coffee with same flavor even if roasting only one half of the conventional amount used. Please feel the original flavor of coffee made by using 2/3 of the conventional amount.
