Is hotter coffee better coffee?

G'day Mate!

When it comes to brewing coffee, temperature is key. The optimal temperature range for brewing coffee is typically between 90°C to 96°C. However, drinking coffee that hot can be unpleasant and may even burn your mouth. On the other hand, adding milk will lower the temperature of your coffee, bringing it down to a range between 50°C to 60°C. But what is the right temperature to enjoy your coffee? Experts recommend letting your coffee cool down for a few minutes before drinking it, as this can enhance the subtle flavors of the coffee. However, if your coffee is too cold, the flavors may not be as prominent and it may not taste as good. So, it's all about finding the right temperature that works for you and your taste preferences.

In addition to temperature, there are other factors to consider when brewing coffee. For example, the type of coffee beans used and the brewing method can also impact the taste of your coffee. Some people prefer a light roast, while others prefer a dark roast. Some people prefer a French press, while others prefer a drip coffee maker. Experimenting with different brewing methods and coffee beans can be a fun way to discover new flavours and find what works best for you.

Cheers and have a great day!
