Those who promote even faster preparation are saved by the capsule coffee machine, which has already become a cult.

After selecting the type of coffee, select the type. There are three main types: arabica, robusta and liberica. All three are listed in order of popularity. Arabica is always a safe option. It is said that the benefits of coffee are fully revealed when drinking dark roasted Arabica. Robusta is usually mixed with Arabica because it is not as tasty alone. Liberica is rare, accounting for just 2 percent of the total coffee market, and you'll mostly see it used in the production of instant coffee. Coffee beans can be used from one type of Arabica, or be mixed from several Arabicas. If all this information is a bit confusing, consult the coffee merchants.

Several other aspects are also important when choosing coffee. For example, the level of roasting of coffee beans. Can be light, medium or dark. The darker the coffee roast, the less caffeine it has. Lighter roasted coffees have a slightly milder taste, but in terms of intensity, they contain a large amount of caffeine. If you buy ground coffee, pay attention to its grinding level. It can range from very fine to very coarse. Most of the time, you will find on the package what preparation method the coffee is intended for. Well, and think not only about the health benefits of coffee. Above all, enjoy the taste and aroma of coffee!
