Autumn Fieber

Hello there,

There it is... the beautiful and colourful... depression. It's ridiculous, but only this season has such connotations with this mood/mental disorder. I don't know why, because when leafs change their tones and everything around has golden and amber colours it makes this season very aesthetic, for me this season is a queen of the year. Only factor that I hate is atmospheric pressure, because it makes us zombies with lack of possibility of thinking, but for that the best is morning coffee :).

Unfortunately, today I want to say something about infusions. The truth is that my kitchen cupboards are full of every type of tea, herbs and other stuff that I don't even know what it is. Thanks to my fiancée I can write this entry, she is type of tea-lover who only buys all kind of tea for autumn, but drinks only earl grey (1 cup every week) and that's all. Well, I present you my top 4 of those inventions:
4. Red tea Pu-erh with lemon flavour: it's kind of spicy tea that I like to taste from time to time.
3. It's composition of dried fruits and herbs: chokeberries, hips, apple, hibiscus and orange, it can be drunk as warming mixture in cold evenings.
2. "Strawberry cupcake" tea with dried strawberries and aromatase of whipped cream.
1. Green tea with dried mango and coconut, this tea has the taste of exotic fruits and if someone tried those in exotic place, it's good remainder, specially, during cold evenings.

That's all for now
See ya!

El Salvador and Brazil

Hello there This post will be the same as last one, because it's continuation of taste series. Today, I'll present coffee of Brazil and El Salvador. With every brew, unfortunately, I've been realizing that the roast grade is accidental... But anyway I prepare the same brewings, i.e., Espresso, Latte, Alternative one (usually in Chemex). So this two were quite good. It is my subjective note. For more information about how I'm brewing and appraising it please read the last update. Salwador SHG: Taste profile (of manufacturer): cinnamon and spicy with berries aftertaste. Opinion: Alternative=3/5, Latte=4/5, Espresso=3,5/5. Why: Roasted to dark to conserve the taste as an alternative, in espresso was like others, I mean, nothing original. Brazylia Santos: Taste profile (of manufacturer): mango, melon, orange and black tea.  Opinion: Alternative: 3,25/5, Latte=4/5, Espresso=4/5. Why: Like Salwador roasted to dark and it's impossible to extract tha...

Strong enough

Hello there, Do you remember the coffee that I mentioned in the last post entry? That one which time of freshness keeps for 3 months. So today I want to give you some information about it. Well, it's darkly roasted coffee with a mysterious sticker on package... I think that's a strong woman, but maybe it's a picture that shows how somebody could feel after drinking it, I don't know, but it's kind of funny picture, look at it!   So, the aesthetic part we have done, it's good to get down to the taste. Its destination is rather to express machine or French pot than to Chemex or Dripper, because of dark roasted level. It contains 100 % of arabica coffee beans, but it's not a single origin, well it comes from Brazil, Guatemala, Salvador, Costa Rica and India. The taste is quite good, I mean, not surprising, but also not disappointing. It's a good gift for someone who we don't know so much. I'm talking (writing) about espresso, in the cause of...

How to start...

Hello there, Maybe it's too late to resolve the title problem. I refer to how to start drinking coffee in another (at least no typical way, only grounded coffee with boiled water or instant). At first, it's good to ask yourself what amount of money you can spend on it. I'll demonstrate few basic options to start it well. The first one can be hario v60 dripper the basic set with dripper, serving pot, 50 paperfilters and plastic spoon which can be used to measure costs approx. £15. Basic Rhinowaveres hand grinder costs approx. £28 and basic gooseneck kettle (you can bought it even for £1, but for check the real cost I will calculate it with £10 price. I assume that everyone has timer and kitchen thermometer. Equals £53. Second one can be Chemex which costs approx. £30 with £10 filters and £28 grinder equals £68 (for 4 cups set). The same price if you want to buy aeropress. Third one can be French press which costs approx. £8 (at Ikea store) with grinder equals £36. And ...
