Americans Are A Drip - At Least When It Comes To Coffee!
Your average cup of basic American coffee can be purchased virtually anywhere even at your local corner store. In many restaurants, a cup of plain coffee costs very little and you can have as many free refills as you like. Because this coffee is often rather flavorless, you can overwhelm it with cream and sugar, as you desire. Now take Italy for example. You can visit wonderful Italian cafes for a cup of tiny espresso. To make an Italian espresso, even in America, you need the right equipment, which is not cheap by any means. However, the taste makes up considerably for any other supposed inconveniences. In many places throughout the world, drinking coffee is not just consuming a beverage; it is a whole experience. Americans have numerous machines that are used to make coffee, however it is a shock to many visitors to see this brew served in either plastic or paper cups. Some people also take almost an insult to the delight many American's take in drinking their brew out of cups with slogans and pictures. Perhaps they see this as silly and somewhat immature. American coffee is viewed as a weak and watery beverage. The French for example love rich, dark, strong coffee. Another complaint by some when it comes to American coffee is the temperature the brew is served at. It seems that many believe that the proper way to serve a cup of coffee is very warm although not scalding hot. In America, people prefer their coffee to be almost able to burn your tongue. In Northern Italy as well as the Scandinavian countries, they have better grade beans and roast their beans a lot lighter than Americans typically do. Which very much affects the taste of a cup of coffee. People from other countries who come to America and order an espresso from a coffee shop or cafe are often disappointed and find the flavor not what they are used to. You have to wonder if it is really the fault of American's that their coffee products are not what other people would like them to be. After all, very few Americans have had the chance to be exposed to or taste a brew made from very high quality, lightly roasted beans. Typically Americans have been purchasing coffee that are often made from beans that are under roasted and have a poor grade in comparison. So, there is not much of a surprise that the coffee would seam to be of a poor quality to people who are used to something better. Americans are also often exposed to coffee that has been over roasted but placed in a fancy bag to make it appear gourmet and rather appealing. It is essential that one is aware that the bean used in created coffee grounds is just as essential as how the bean is roasted. If you prefer your coffee with plenty of sugar and milk or when the coffee grounds used are not of a good quality, it is better to use a darker blend. However, very good coffee is best enjoyed lighter. When a coffee is made from top-notch grounds, it is often incredibly easy to enjoy the brew as is. You do not want or need to dress the brew up with the flavor disguises of sugar and or milk. |
