"Coffee should be black as hell, strong as death, and as sweet as love"
Nothing beats having a cuppa. I can’t seem to have enough of this beverage. Every morning without fail, I’ll have a cup of kopi, sure it’s no gourmet coffee, but its sure has its own peculiar favour. Did you know that the kopi at the regular heartlands contained way way more caffeine than those found in starbucks, coffeebean, etc…. I dun care what the coffee barristers say, I like my coffee rough, overly flavoured and if I ever had to choose….I’d rather OD on caffeine the good old fashion way……
Heres some trivia to my overdue tribute to the beverage of choice
A scientific report form the University of California found that the steam rising from a cup of coffee contains the same amounts of antioxidants as three oranges. The antioxidants are heterocyclic compounds which prevents cancer and heart disease. It's good for you!
Advertisements for coffee in London in 1657 claimed that the beverage was a cure for scurvy, gout and other ills.
After they are roasted, and when the coffee beans begin to cool, they release about 700 chemical substances that make up the vaporizing aromas.
Beethoven who was a coffee lover, was so particular about his coffee that he always counted 60 beans each cup when he prepared his brew.
Coffee is generally roasted between 400F and 425F. The longer it is roasted, the darker the roast. Roasting time is usually from ten to twenty minutes.
Dark roasted coffees actually have LESS caffeine than medium roasts. The longer a coffee is roasted, the more caffeine burns off during the process.
In the 16th century, Turkish women could divorce their husbands if the man failed to keep his family's pot filled with coffee.
