Can coffee beans be brewed?
Reading time - 3 minutes.
It is not worth brewing whole coffee beans, nothing good will come of it. Reviews of those who have tried it only confirm the well-known truth - coffee beans must be ground before brewing. Only in this way will its taste and aroma be revealed. Otherwise, the resulting decoction from the beans can only be poured, it will not look like coffee at all.
Connoisseurs prefer to buy coffee beans to see their quality. The grains contain valuable essential oils. Oil droplets sometimes appear on the surface, but here they react with oxygen, which negatively affects the properties of the drink. When boiling whole grains, the most valuable remains inside, so the grains must be grinded in a convenient way. To prepare different types of coffee, a different grind is recommended: coarse, fine, like flour. Freshly ground coffee is much more aromatic and tastier. At the same time, you cannot leave ground coffee open for a long time - this is how valuable compounds evaporate, which significantly depletes the taste of an invigorating drink.
