Coffee is one of those great pleasures that has been sorely abused but is fighting back in a big way. Much abused by the shameless addition of Chickory and the explosion of "Instant" coffee blends which sell by the millions of tons worldwide.

But anyone who appreciates the aroma and pleasure of drinking true coffee prepared from freshly ground beans will tell you that like is too short. Instant coffee is only a mere shadow of what coffee really should taste like.

In order to get the best from coffee and experience the full taste and great aroma the beans should be kept in an airtight container until just before preparation. Only then should they be poured into a grinder to render them to the appropriate consistency for the device to be used (Fine for filters and somewhat courser for cafeterias and espresso machines).

And then water just off the boil should be used to extract the liquor from the ground beans after which the spent grounds may be discarded or put to some other use. Coffee should be drunk hot and shortly after preparation. Remember that the wonderful seductive aroma it gives off is part of ...
... its taste so it is best drunk while the aroma is still tantalizing your taste buds. Reheating in a microwave or even on a hot range somewhat diminishes the taste.

Now we come to coffee blends. Some coffees are strong, some are bitter and many have different tastes. Portuguese, Spanish and Italian coffee shops have had espresso machines as part of their standard equipment for generations. Espresso itself tends to be very strong and somewhat bitter providing the drinker with a jolt of the stimulant that such coffee provides. But not everyone likes espresso. The popularizing of coffee brewed for you by the now famous Starbucks and other specialist chain coffee shops has made the general public far more aware of the pleasures of coffee.
