How should I store matcha powder?
Matcha doesn’t like light, air or moisture. Keep it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, ideally in the fridge. That way it stays fresh and keeps its vibrant green colour for longer.
Are the coffee beans in the Kimbo tasting pack suitable for a moka pot?
Yes, the beans in this tasting pack work well in a moka pot. You grind them yourself, slightly coarser than you would for an espresso machine and clearly finer than for filter coffee.
Kimbo is a Neapolitan roaster and these Italian blends are made for exactly this kind of brewing: full, strong and with plenty of body. Fill the funnel loosely, do not tamp the coffee down and put the pot on a moderate heat, so it does not turn bitter. If you do not own a grinder, a pack of whole beans is less practical and ground coffee is the better choice for you.
What does specialty coffee actually mean?
Specialty coffee is high-quality coffee that scores at least 80 points according to international standards and is known for better beans, richer flavour, and clear origin.
Why is specialty coffee more expensive?
Specialty coffee is more expensive because more care and effort go into every step of the process, from cultivation and selection to roasting and freshness, resulting in higher quality and better taste.
Is supermarket coffee worse?
Supermarket coffee is not necessarily bad, but it focuses less on quality and flavour, which often makes it flatter and more bitter than specialty coffee.
Can you make specialty coffee at home?
You can easily make specialty coffee at home with the right beans and a good brewing method, allowing you to enjoy more flavour and nuance in your cup.
What is in Kiss of Fire coffee?
Kiss of Fire coffee is made with strong coffee or espresso, rum, sugar and a layer of whipped cream. Sometimes extra flavours like cinnamon, chocolate or coffee liqueur are added for variation.
Which alcohol works best?
Dark rum is most commonly used because of its warm and slightly sweet flavour. You can also vary with coffee liqueur or a combination of both for a smoother and fuller taste.
Can you make Kiss of Fire coffee without alcohol?
You can replace the alcohol with syrups such as vanilla or caramel. This keeps the drink warm and full of flavour, but without the alcoholic kick.
What is the difference with Irish coffee?
Irish coffee is traditionally made with Irish whiskey and has a slightly stronger, drier taste. Kiss of Fire coffee is often a bit smoother and sweeter due to the use of rum and optional flavour additions.
Can you make a frozen cappuccino in advance?
It tastes best when served straight away. If you leave it sitting, the ice melts and the texture becomes thinner. Want to prepare ahead? Chill the coffee in advance and blend it at the last minute.
How do you make it less sweet?
Simply leave out the sugar or syrup. It also helps to use a coffee with a naturally full flavour, so you will not miss the sweetness.
Can you use hot coffee?
Better not. Hot coffee melts the ice straight away, which makes the drink watery. Always let your coffee cool first, or use coffee ice cubes instead.
How do you make it extra creamy?
Use whole milk or oat milk and blend it a little longer. You can also add a small splash of cream for a richer texture.
Is Aeropress easier to use than V60?
Yes, the Aeropress is easier to use. It requires less technique and there is less chance of mistakes. The V60 needs more precision when pouring and timing.
