How to drink espresso
Even in a coffee shop, you don't need a special environment to drink espresso, and sometimes you don't even need a table. Many people like to stand at the bar and watch the barista make a cup of espresso beautifully and smoothly, and then bring it over for three seconds and kill it.
Suggested collocation:
1. Fresh lemonade. Because espresso is very strong, you'd better drink some water before drinking it to clear the taste, at least not in a thirsty state.
2. Brownie cake, because coffee is bitter, it can be paired with a very sweet brownie cake to neutralize the taste.
3. Stand at the counter and chat with the barista, then leave quickly.
Because Macchiato has light milk bubbles on it, don't stir it with a coffee spoon when drinking. Even if sugar is added, it is best to sprinkle it evenly on the surface of the milk bubble and drink it directly at an angle, so that the coffee can still maintain a layered feeling when entering.
Suggested collocation:
1. Dark chocolate is a perfect match for Kung Fu coffee. Many cafes will offer such a classic match.
2. Listening to Chopin Mazuka and drinking such strong coffee is not suitable for listening to lively pop music. A piano that is somewhat quiet and somewhat powerful is very harmonious.
Types of espresso
Macchiato concentrated Macchiato is very feminine and looks like a miniature cappuccino. The biggest difference between them is that the weight of Macchiato is one third of that of cappuccino. Macchiato is an espresso with only a layer of milk foam on it, so it only stays on the lips, and the taste of espresso will not be diluted by milk. This kind of coffee is the most popular among kung fu coffees today, because many young cafes like to use this kind of coffee to change their patterns, such as caramel macchiato, but in fact, the weight has been silently increased several times, and the taste has also weakened a lot, just using this nice name.
Double espresso Double espresso Basically, this is a drink for men, strong and unpretentious, and an enhanced version of Kung Fu coffee for real coffee geeks. Generally, a single person is 7 7~ 10/0g powder 25~30ml for 25 ~ 30 seconds, and a double person is14 ~ 20g powder 45 ~ 60ml. The level is equivalent to the essence in liquor and perfume, which is quite choking and not everyone can digest it. Drinking this coffee will spoil people. If you get used to this strong taste, other coffees will taste like water. More extreme people like to add wine, such as rum or whisky, to double it and pursue the satisfaction of being completely surrounded by the taste.
Kangpana espresso Kangbaolan is an ordinary espresso with thick whipped cream on it. It is a kind of retro Kung Fu coffee, much like the aristocrats in Russia or the royal family in Austria, probably because fresh cream was relatively rare at that time. Ordinary cafes will be filled with glasses. In order to let the guests see the interface between whipped cream and coffee clearly, from the beginning to the gradual infiltration, the dark brown clear espresso became turbid, and the sweetness of cream also penetrated into the bitter coffee, becoming more affinity. For those who want to try Kung Fu coffee, it will be easier to start with this coffee.
Ingle espresso is the basic type of Kung Fu coffee and the most popular coffee in Europe. If you order only coffee in a cafe or restaurant, the waiter will definitely bring you a cup of such kung fu coffee directly. They like to put them in small glasses like shooters, and most of them are drained after one or two bites. Few of them are tasted slowly, just the opposite of China Kung Fu tea. Espresso liberates people from the unfathomable single product coffee and complex coffee bean producing areas. Deep roasted mixed coffee beans are usually chosen. Once the formula is confirmed, it will remain unchanged for decades and the taste is quite stable.
Is espresso good for losing weight?
Coffee can stimulate the brain, accelerate the metabolism of the body, and help to consume excess fat in the body, thus improving the effect of losing weight. But in the process of losing weight, it is best not to choose some instant coffee, because this kind of coffee will add a lot of sugar, milk or coffee partners, thus increasing the calories of coffee itself.
Caffeine in coffee will interfere with the absorption of minerals such as calcium, iron and zinc, so not everyone is suitable for drinking coffee to lose weight. Even adults should pay attention to healthy diet. In addition, women can't drink coffee during menstruation, otherwise it may cause symptoms of dysmenorrhea in women, and the patient's body will also be affected, which is not conducive to nutrient absorption.
If the dieter has symptoms such as stomach pain, stomach acid and abdominal distension during drinking coffee, he needs timely treatment and stops drinking coffee. It is suggested that you can drink black coffee one hour after meals, but not on an empty stomach, so as not to damage the gastrointestinal mucosa. In the process of eating, you need to reduce the intake of food with too many calories.
