Christo's Coffee Corner

You always talk to friends about life, love, philosophy and politics over coffee. I'm a bit of an addict and a connoisseur. Take a coffee break, join me and let's talk about something, everything or nothing... How would you like your cuppa?

Who's for coffee?

SOME TASTING TERMINOLOGY TO HELP YOU ON YOUR WAY
By developing your taste buds, through lively experimentation, the sea of coffee beans will certainly become less formidable and more familiar.
Acidity is the sharp, snappy taste that defines your coffee.
Aroma is fragrance.
Body is the heaviness and thickness of a coffee as it touches your tongue.
Flavour is a combination of all the above and is defined by the relationship they have to each other; rather like describing the elements of a love-affair.

Dis so opwindend soos om parfuum, rooiwyn en Tibetan wierrook te kies en geniet. Elkeen het sy eie terminologie om dit 'n unieke ritme te gee... dis great is dit nie!
Dit is so afgesaag om altyd dieselfde ou goed oor en oor te doen, net omdat dit makliker is en omdat daar dalk risiko daaraan verbonde mag wees om 'n kans te waag in die onbekende.

Is die blog 'n handboek vir koffiedrinkers?

Moet mens ook jou pinkie in die lug steek en snuf snuf snuf daaraan voordat jy sluk, soos Gautengers wanneer hulle wynproe?

Prof, versigtig hoe jy veralgemeen hierso bo, die mense in die myndorp hou nie daarvan om gelykgestel te word aan die mense in die hoofstad nie :) Die dialekte verskil ook merkbaar, julle mense agter die druiwegordyn skeer aldag gek daarmee...
