Indonesia Coffee


The taste of delicious coffee can indeed evoke the atmosphere. Coffee is also able to build the spirit in the morning. After waking up, coffee will make the body feel fresh and powerful. But none of that would be meaningless without a special taste.

The enjoyment and freshness of coffee is strongly influenced by the type of coffee. However, proper brewing techniques are also capable of great influence on the resulting flavor. For that, it is important for coffee lovers to know how to brew coffee properly.

Before you start brewing coffee, you first need to know that buying coffee and brewing it as soon as possible is the most appropriate action. This allows you to get the best taste of the coffee you want to enjoy. In addition, make sure also that the equipment to be used is really clean. Make sure there is no coffee or coffee leftover before.

If you buy coffee, be sure to buy coffee in the form of beans, and grind it when brewed. Grinder coffee or grinder tool also there are several types. Burr or mill grinder is more recommended because the grinder is able to produce consistent grinding results. Should not use a blade grinder because the coffee grinder is not able to provide consistent mill results.

Flavors that are too bitter or too flat taste all because of the extraction of coffee produced. If the coffee beans are milled in a way that is too smooth, then the bitter taste will be felt. Conversely, if the taste of coffee is too flat, all because of the milling less smooth.
The use of water also affects the resulting flavor.


To get a taste of quality coffee, use filtered water or bottled water. To maintain flavor, avoid the use of distilled water or lightened minerals. The ratio of water used also needs to be considered, it is recommended 1gram coffee 15ml water. This calculation also applies to multiples.

The ideal water temperature for brewing coffee is between 90 to 96 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, coffee will be extracted optimally. Colder temperatures will cause the taste of coffee feels flat. Cooked coffee at too hot a temperature will also eliminate the taste quality of the coffee.

Old cooking or brewing coffee also affects the taste of coffee. The best taste of coffee will be felt after 4 minutes of contact between coffee with hot water. If you use a pot plunger, the ideal contact time is between 2 to 4 minutes. For this type of espresso coffee, the length of contact only ranges from 20 to 30 seconds. If the resulting flavor is less than optimal, it is likely that the contact time between coffee and hot water is too fast or even too long.

The best coffee taste can only be enjoyed as soon as the ideal contact time is reached. That's why, immediately enjoy the coffee that has been cooked. To keep the temperature in order to last longer, use a cup of coffee or a mug. But be sure to keep the coffee temperature at a temperature between 80 to 85 degrees Celsius. If you use an electric heater, be sure to never brew or heat the coffee for more than 15 minutes. One more thing to note is never to reheat your coffee. If it is cold, it would be better if you enjoy coffee in these conditions. Although it feels faded, this is much better than reheat it.

Not everyone is a baker, but everyone wants a good dessert every now and then. This is where these Salted Caramel Coffee Mousse Cups come in. The mousse has only a handful of ingredients and most of the flavor comes from the already bottled up Salted Caramel Milk that you can buy pre-made.

This was one of those experiments that worked on the first try! I guess, when you’re as excited to make something as I was, it just all works out!

This Salted Caramel Mousse doesn’t taste fatty or greasy like some cream ladened mousses do. Instead it tastes light on the tongue, with just the right balance of flavors. The Coffee Chocolate layer on top works nicely with the Mousse flavors and each spoonful almost feels like a fancy coffee drink in a mousse form with a delicious flavor of Salted Caramel.

These beautiful cups of Salted Caramel Coffee Mousse really don’t need any garnish, they look pretty as is. But, if you have a good block of white chocolate, you can add some “wow!” factor to the top of each mousse cup by shaving the chocolate block with a vegetable peeler. If your curls are falling apart as you’re shaving, try microwaving the chocolate for a couple of seconds at a time, until you can run your vegetable peeler along the rib of the chocolate and the curls come out smooth and unbroken.

Now go grab a couple bottles of the Salted Caramel Milk and impress your family with these beautiful Salted Caramel Coffee Mousse Cups!

Ingredients for the Salted Caramel Mousse Layer

  • 2 cups Darigold Salted Caramel milk
  • 1/4 cup Darigold Salted Caramel Milk
  • 4 oz whipped heavy cream or whipped topping
  • 2 3/4 tsp unflavored, powdered, gelatin
  • 1 tsp vanilla


Ingredients for the Coffee Chocolate Layer

  • 1/4 cup Darigold Salted Caramel milk
  • 1/4 cup  Darigold Salted Caramel milk
  • 1/2 tsp unflavored, powdered, gelatin
  • 1 Tbsp cocoa
  • 1 packet instant coffee powder, or 1 tsp of instant coffee powder.
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp sugar, granulated

How to make Salted Caramel Coffee Mousse Cups
Pour 1/4 cups of Darigold Salted Caramel milk into a small cup, then add 2 3/4 tsp of unflavored powdered gelatin. Stir and let sit for 2 minutes before microwaving for 20 seconds. Stir again until the gelatin dissolves. Do not boil the mixture.

Run the mixture through a sieve into a larger bowl. Then, add 3 Tbsp sugar,  1 tsp of vanilla extract and give it a quick stir. While continuously whisking the mixture add 2 cups of the Darigold Salted Caramel Milk into the gelatin mixture. If the mixture starts to set, you can microwave it for about 10 seconds, just to warm it up enough and prevent the mixture from thickening or setting.

If using regular heavy whipping cream, whip 4 oz of whipping cream in a separate container until stiff peaks. Using whipped topping in this recipe though will produce a fluffier mousse with lighter texture.
Add about the milk mixture we prepared earlier into the whipped cream in 3 additions, carefully combining everything in between. In the end you should have a fluffy, but liquid mixture.

Divide the Salted Caramel Mousse mixture between six 5 oz-6 oz  containers equally. Place in the freezer for 15 minutes, or in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, just until the Salted Caramel Mousse mixture is no longer runny and can handle the Coffee Chocolate Layer being poured on top without being disturbed. If placing in the freezer, make sure to set the timer or the mousse will freeze.

Coffee With Chocolate Whipped Cream


Chocolate, hazelnut, and coffee all pair up beautifully, no matter which two you pick, so why not put all three together? For the alcohol, that means Frangelico, a hazelnut-infused liqueur; for the whipped cream, a good dose of Dutch-process cocoa powder. Do I even need to say that it works? Of course it does!

Why It Works
Swapping out the booze in a traditional Irish coffee opens up a world of flavor combinations.

Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon Dutch-process cocoa powder (1/2 ounce; 15g), plus more for dusting
  2. 1 teaspoon (4g) sugar
  3. Tiny pinch kosher salt
  4. 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
  5. 6 ounces (175ml) hot black coffee
  6. 1 1/2 ounces (45ml) Frangelico (hazelnut liqueur)
  7. 1 tablespoon (15ml) 2:1 simple syrup (see note)

Directions

  1. Combine cocoa powder, sugar, salt, and heavy cream in a mixing bowl or bowl of a stand mixer. Beat, using the whisk attachment, electric beaters, or a whisk, until dry ingredients are evenly incorporated and cream forms soft peaks.
  2. Combine hot coffee, Frangelico, and simple syrup in a prewarmed mug. (You can prewarm it by pouring hot water into it, letting it stand for 1 minute, then draining.) Using a spoon, dollop whipped cream on top of coffee and top with a dusting of cocoa powder. Serve right away. (Note that you may have more whipped cream than the mug can accommodate; feel free to add more as you drink, or use some for the next round.)


Notes
To make a 2:1 simple syrup, combine 1/2 cup (120g) granulated sugar with 1/4 cup (60ml) water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring, until sugar is fully dissolved. In these recipes, you can add the syrup hot, since the drinks are hot; any extra can be stored in the refrigerator up to 3 months, and often longer.

Coffee With Lemon Cream


This flavor combination may not appeal to those who don't love the minty-bitter flavor of Fernet Branca, but for those who do, this riff on a classic Irish coffee is sure to blow their socks off. Here, fernet's strong medicinal kick is boosted with a wonderfully perky lemon whipped cream. The result is a potent brew with loud, bright flavors that will send a jolt through your brain and your digestive tract, far more effectively than either caffeine or fernet could ever do alone.

Why It Works
Swapping out the booze in a traditional Irish coffee opens up a world of flavor combinations.

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces (175ml) hot black coffee
  • 2 ounces (60ml) Fernet Branca
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) 2:1 simple syrup (see note)
  • 1 recipe Lemon Chantilly
  • Freshly grated zest of 1 lemon (optional)

Directions
Combine hot coffee, fernet, and simple syrup in a prewarmed mug. (You can prewarm it by pouring hot water into it, letting it stand for 1 minute, then draining.) Using a spoon, dollop chantilly on top of coffee and top with lemon zest, if using. Serve right away. (Note that you may have more whipped cream than the mug can accommodate; feel free to add more as you drink, or use some for the next round.)

Notes
To make a 2:1 simple syrup, combine 1/2 cup (120g) granulated sugar with 1/4 cup (60ml) water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring, until sugar is fully dissolved. In these recipes, you can add the syrup hot, since the drinks are hot; any extra can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 months, and often longer.

Put ground coffee in a coffee pot and add sugar. Pour water in a separate pan, bring it to boil and add to the coffee pot. Place the pot above a stove. Steam the coffee, but don't bring it to boil.
As soon as foam appears, turn off the fire and wait till the foam sinks. Then turn on the fire for a minute. Pour the prepared coffee into a cup. Add 1 tsp of cognac and a slice of lemon. Stir everything and serve.
Enjoy your drink!

Tip! It is better to take a copper coffee pot and a silver teaspoon. Use filtered water, while boiled water is not a good solution to brew tasty coffee.

Hot Coffee Americano


If there is one popular black coffee recipe, it is Caffe Americano or American coffee. Its origin is unknown but according to some, it started during WWII when American soldiers stationed abroad mix espresso with water to emulate the usual drip coffee back home.

Things Needed:

  • Espresso shot
  • 6 ounces hot water
  • kettle or mug

Directions:
Bring water close to a boil. Turn off heat just when small bubbles are starting to form. Simply pour an espresso shot into a coffee mug and add 6 ounces of hot water. Mix and stir gently. Feel free to substitute an espresso shot with 2-ounce French press or very strong drip coffee. Feel free to add hazelnut or vanilla syrup to mellow out the sting.

For cold version:
Simply put the espresso shot (or its substitute) in a tall glass. Add 6 ounces of cold water. Stir gently. Add ice for a cooler feel.

Sweetened Coffee Mexicano


Exotic and energetic—these two characteristics define the very essence of Caffe Mexicano or Caffe Olla. Traditionally offered in all-night Mexican wake for the dead, the molasses and cinnamon added to the drink give it added spice and texture that makes it truly one of the most scrumptious black coffee recipes.

Things Needed

  • 8 cups water
  • 1 cup medium-grind coffee
  • 1 tsp. molasses
  • 2/3 cup light brown sugar
  • (2) 3-inch cinnamon sticks
  • ceramic pot or kettle

Directions:
Combine water, molasses, brown sugar and cinnamon sticks in a 4-quart earthen clay pot (or kettle, if pot is not available). Bring to a boil under moderate heat. Make sure to stir occasionally to ensure sugar is properly dissolved. Add coffee grind and boil for 5 minutes. Filter residue by pouring into a clean pot or pitcher via a fine-mesh sieve. Discard cinnamon sticks or use it as a stirrer.

When done ahead of time, reheat over moderate heat without reaching boiling point.

TURKISH COFFEE


I love the cardamom flavor with the coffee. I used Splenda in place of sugar. It was a great change from the same old coffee. I'll make this again.

INGREDIENTS

  1. 1 cup water
  2. 1 tablespoon of extra fine ground coffee (powder consistency)
  3. 1⁄8 teaspoon ground cardamom or 1 cardamom pod
  4. sugar (optional)


DIRECTIONS

  1. Bring water and sugar to a boil in ibrik.
  2. If you do not have an ibrik, a small saucepan will work.
  3. Remove from heat, add coffee and cardamom.
  4. Return saucepan to heat and allow to come to a boil.
  5. Remove from heat when coffee foams.
  6. Again, return to heat, allowing to foam and remove from heat.
  7. Pour into cup, and allow to sit for a few minutes for the grounds to settle to the bottom of the cup.
  8. Cardamom pod may be served in cup for added flavor.


TURKISH COFFEE TIPS:
Many people have made note that the coffee did not foam the second boiling. Sorry about that. Maybe if, when you pour the coffee into the cup, you do it from up high. I think I read that somewhere.
Turkish coffee must always be served with foam on top.
If you can't find finely ground Arabic coffee, you can purchase a bag of coffee at any coffeehouse and ask them to grind it for Turkish coffee. You need to have a powder-like consistency.
Do not stir after pouring into cups; the foam will collapse.
Always use cold water.

Viennexican Coffee


I created this coffee drink out of a craving for a little kick to my coffee. Based on my love of hot chai, I began to feel that North Americans have a distinct lack of health-giving herbs and spices in our native cuisine.
