All about the Coffee

 Be the best recipe for making great coffee. I enjoy coffee Black as the devil, hot as hell, pure as an angel, and sweet as love. This might been so much and it has become my routine sipping it almost every morning.  

Coffee is a brewed drink from roasted coffee beans. The plants create coffee cherries contain the coffee beans inside. The plant itself can be found all over the world it is cultivated primarily in Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Africa. The two most commonly grown coffees are the highly regarded Coffea arabica, and the ‘Robusta’, form of the hardier Coffea canephora.

Once ripe, coffee berries are picked, processed, and dried. The seeds are then roasted to varying degrees, depending on the desired flavor. They are then ground and brewed to create coffee which can be presented in a variety of ways. 

The history of coffee starts in the Ethiopian highlands when a goat herder noticed his goats; they became so spirited that they did not want to sleep at night after eating berries from a certain tree.  

The goat herder then told an abbot about his finding, who usually made a drink with the berries and discovered that it kept him alert for the long hours of evening prayer. Soon, the knowledge of the energizing effects of the berries began to spread across the globe. 

Meanwhile, coffee was popular for the Arabians for. Muslims, who are forbidden from drink alcohol by the Koran, they found coffee's energizing properties to be an acceptable substitute. That is why the drink was often called 'wine of Araby' as when thousands of pilgrims visit the holy city of Mecca from all over the world every year

Of the two main species, Arabica coffee is often more highly regarded than Robusta; it is also has more flavor and contains less caffeine. Robusta coffee is healthier for our body, but tends to be bitter in taste. Good quality Robusta beans are used in some espresso blends to provide a full-bodied taste, and a better foam head (known as the crema), and to lower the ingredient cost. 

So, how do you take your coffee? I myself love hot black coffee for breakfast with little sugar. I also like it as latte when I order it from coffee shop. A latte is a coffee drink made with espresso and steamed milk. The best thing about a latte is the art pattern upon it, flowers, hearts, trees and other simple objects are always mesmerize me. 

 How does coffee affect your health? There has been contradictory evidence whether the caffeine in coffee causes or helps relive headaches. Doctors at the Diamond Headache Clinic in Chicago, Illinois, have found that the common painkiller, ibuprofen, is more active against tension headaches when combined with caffeine. The research was sponsored by Procter and Gamble, the multinational drug and Chemicals Company.

The contradiction still has not been solved. However, it is not recommended for those who have daily headaches or suffer from migraines, to drink coffee very often.
