Have you ever wondered: in the cup of coffee you drink every day, how much is pure? Coffee is considered a "national drink" not only in Vietnam and around the world. However, choosing the right pure roasted coffee is something not everyone knows. Let's learn this topic with Huongmai Cafe through the article below.

What is pure roasted coffee?  

Pure coffee is a term used to refer to roasted and ground coffee beans that do not contain impurities. From the extraction of raw coffee materials to the roasting, the final coffee product is 100% pure coffee, without any additives, flavoring agents, chemicals or other ingredients to make coffee change the original volume, flavor and characteristics of the coffee.

On the market today, there are many types of coffee that still use the old mixing formula, adding flavoring agents, fish sauce, cornstarch, and soybean powder. Such coffees are not called pure coffee, but impregnated coffee, mixed coffee.

How to identify pure roasted coffee

Usually for those who are "in the profession", connoisseurs of coffee, it is easy to distinguish between blended roasted coffee and pure roasted coffee. However, we can also distinguish quality coffee by itself by the following basic characteristics.

Roasted coffee beans

Pure coffee beans that are roasted and ground will have a light, dry surface, smelling the natural aroma of coffee, without the smell of impurities. Usually after a while, coffee beans will appear "oiled" outside the beans. However, it does not cause a hissing, viscous feeling when touched by hand. Different from the feeling of touching nuts roasted with butter, fat or fish sauce. This is a normal phenomenon, a sign that the coffee has released maximum air and is of good quality.

Humidity

Coffee when roasted wood after grinding into a powder will have moderate moisture, dry, loose coffee powder. If tightly clenched, it will stick into a block, but it will be easy to separate. Meanwhile, coffees mixed with butter, fish sauce or colorants will often have higher moisture content, are easy to clump, and when held together, they will stick together into a block.

Color, scent

Pure roasted coffee powder usually has a characteristic cockroach brown color, when smelling it has a natural aroma such as chocolate, caramel (for Robusta beans) and the smell of dried fruit (for Arabica beans). If using or opening the coffee bag regularly, the scent can be reduced quite a bit in about 10-14 days. However, the quality of coffee at this time is still guaranteed and unaffected. As for blended coffee, it will smell a strong scent from chemicals, the smell feels very "fake" or makes the nose uncomfortable, sneezes immediately if sniffed for a long time. It can be said that this scent usually lingers for a long time, hard to lose.

Porosity

Pure roasted coffee has a relatively low moisture content, so there is a lot of tiny space in the coffee powder. Usually, to check the quality, people often put coffee in filtered water. If the coffee powder emerges as pure, and if it contains a lot of impurities, the powder will sink, weigh or settle to the bottom of the cup.

Coffee water

Pure roasted coffee when extracted will usually have a cockroach brown color, the degree of lightness depends on the roasting scale. Coffee has a deep black color, usually coffees that have been spiced or roasted with soybean flour, corn flour to increase color and intensity. Another recognizable feature is that pure coffee will appear a light layer of air bubbles below when brewing the filter, when beaten on the brown color of cockroach wings and the layer of air bubbles quickly dissolves.

Smell

Have you ever felt that the coffee bought at the sidewalk shops often has a more bitter, richer and more aromatic taste than the coffee enjoyed at the shop. That's because coffee infused with cornstarch or soybeans has a higher consistency than pure coffee. Natural roasted coffee will not be bold, bitter, but fragrant, mild and pleasant.
