Should You Slurp Your Coffee?

Wheelin Pete's Green Coffee Company — Wed, 11 Oct 2017 20:05:39 +0000

Slurping coffee introduces air, which enhances the aromas and flavors you smell and taste, much like aerating wine. I like the effect of slurping, but not so much the raised eyebrows when I do it. Want to know my slurping hack at home? I use the steam wand on my espresso machine to introduce air into my coffee. I discovered this when I used the steam wand to reheat coffee, as I am the slowest coffee drinker on this continent. Happy Slurping! Wheelin Pete’s Green Coffee Company

One Bad Coffee Bean Can Spoil Your Morning!

Wheelin Pete's Green Coffee Company — Tue, 12 Sep 2017 19:21:55 +0000

Did you know human taste is so discriminatory that we can taste the off taste from one bad coffee bean in a cup of coffee? So what is the remedy? At Wheelin Pete’s Green Coffee not only do we buy premium specialty coffee but we hand sort through each pound we sell. But once you get those beans you should do the following:

Hand sort green coffee beans before roasting to eliminate bad beans or small pebbles we may have missed.
Hand sort again after roasting to remove any burned beans or beans that may have been stuck in your roaster from a previous cycle.
Keep all of your equipment clean to avoid burned or rancid coffee oils from transferring to fresh beans or coffee. This includes your roaster, storage containers, coffee grinder and brewing equipment.

Happy Roasting – Wheelin Pete’s Green Coffee

Coffee Grind Adjustments

Wheelin Pete's Green Coffee Company — Thu, 19 Jan 2017 19:05:30 +0000

I don’t know how your specific roasted coffee grinder adjusts but you should start with a medium grind. If the coffee is too weak make the grind finer and check the temperature of your water which should be about 190-195 degrees. If too strong use a coarser grind. Feel the grind with your fingers if it feels like white sugar it is perfect for espresso but too fine for pour overs, French Press or Drip. Grind is usually a matter of personal preference. Too fine and the water will over extract and the coffee more bitter. You are shooting for maximum flavor, sweetness and mouthfeel without over extraction.
