The subjectivity of good and bad is too strong, and the good and bad here do not refer to the good and bad of personal taste. The so-called gold can not buy a good heart, even a cup of coffee others do not recognize. I think the best is the best. So today we're just going to do it from a general scientific point of view.

A good cup of coffee can make people feel relaxed and happy, but what does it depend on? Today we're going to look at three main ways to judge good coffee.
Origin of coffee beans
The subjectivity of good and bad is too strong, and the good and bad here do not refer to the good and bad of personal taste. The so-called gold can not buy a good heart, even a cup of coffee others do not recognize. I think the best is the best. So today we're just going to do it from a general scientific point of view.
Coffee bean
Good coffee beans are the prerequisite for good coffee. The quality of coffee beans is affected by growing conditions. For example, aracabi coffee beans, which we are most exposed to in our lives, need to be grown at high altitudes. Also, when the coffee beans are picked, whether they are picked by machine or by hand, the machine is rougher and the man is more careful. Also, whether the beans are selected, the selected beans are the best in size and quality.
The average good coffee bean is not particularly productive, so the price is generally relatively expensive. In general, raw beans produced in commercial quantities are not refined enough.
Baking process
With good green coffee beans, the next step is to roast and ripen them. It sounds simple, as if all you have to do is get the temperature right. Not so much. How coffee is roasted and how long it takes to roast the beans makes a big difference.
Coffee roasting
A good baker not only has a deep understanding of the characteristics of beans, but also needs to operate the baking equipment skillfully. In this way, we can roast coffee beans with characteristic flavor according to the variety of coffee beans. In particular, we can have a good understanding of the roasting time and depth of roasting.
A few seconds can have an effect on the coffee being roasted and, of course, on the difference, if only subtle, between the beans from batch to batch. Although there are many high-tech measuring AIDS to roasting, but as a traditional craft work, the experience of the roaster will directly affect the stability of the quality of the coffee produced.
Coffee making method
Once the beans are in the barista's hands, they are ground to different fineness depending on the type of coffee they are making. For example, espresso and hand-brewed coffee require different fineness. Only the right ground coffee particles can bring out the aroma and taste of coffee.
Coffee making
Next, make coffee. Similar to roasters, baristas also need to make a series of fine adjustments in the process, such as water temperature, water powder ratio, control of extraction time, etc., in order to find the most suitable recipe for the coffee bean, so as to perfectly present the most beautiful fragrance and taste in coffee, and bring the highest enjoyment to customers.
If there is insufficient extraction or extraction transition, then it will affect the taste of the coffee.
It might be a little subjective, but I think it's 20% raw beans, 40% roasters, 40% baristas. While good beans are a prerequisite for good coffee, you can't get good coffee without good roasters and baristas.
For consumers, my cup of coffee is good or not, first of all depends on your subjective feelings, I think good is good! The second question is whether you've ever had a cup of coffee that's scientifically green beans, scientifically roasted and technically made. Because everyone's taste is slightly different.
