What's the point of perfecting a brew method if you are not using quality coffee beans? The most important way to improve your coffee is to find the best coffee. Depending on your brew method, you may need an espresso, a single origin, or a custom blend.
Here at Koffee Kult, we look for the best coffee on the planet, which is why we gather only the highest quality beans from countries all over the world. We have Colombian coffees, Ethiopian coffees, Tanzanian, Sumatran, and Ugandan coffees. Coffees from Guatemala, Kenya, Nicaragua, Peru, and Brazil.
2) Grind & Store Beans
The bean loses freshness and the quality of your cup of coffee decreases the longer the bean has been ground and sitting. For the freshest cup of coffee possible, you want to grind your coffee beans right before you brew them.
Remove your coffee from paper bags and place it in a plastic, airtight container to seal in the freshness. Always remember to store your beans in a cool, dry, dark space away from light, which will decrease the flavor.
3) Perfect Your Brewing Technique
Once beans are ground, one of the easiest ways to make the perfect cup of coffee is to use a french press. A french press takes just a bit more work than the auto-drip option but these steps make for quite a great cup of coffee.
French press helps preserve the natural oils and all the natural flavors of the coffee bean. Filters take away the natural flavors of the final cup. Looking for a different method? Find our brew guides HERE, along with our instructions for french press.
4) Ditch the No-Calorie Sweeteners
You heard us correctly. DITCH THE NO-CALORIE SWEETENERS. Once you adjust to the taste of coffee, you may never return to the land of sugary coffee, but in case you do miss it, we suggest using a sprinkle of coconut sugar, a spoonful of honey, and even a drop of agave.
A little natural sugar goes a long way to sweetening up your cup after you wean yourself off artificial sweeteners.
5) Spice Up Your Cup
Spices, spices, and more spices. Spices are an excellent way to improve your cup of coffee and provide a nice change. It's a beautiful fall day and you are craving a Pumpkin Spice Latte, but don't have time to put it together?
Whip out your Pumpkin Pie Spice, homemade or store bought. This blend of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and cloves goes a long way to infuse your coffee with the notes you crave. Check out our Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe.
6) Try Milk Alternatives
Looking to try one of the latest coffee trends? Using Oat Milk or alternative milk such as Macadamia instead of regular milk in your coffee isn't a new trend, but the alternative milks keep popping up in the market.
Certain alternative milks, specifically the barista blends, can be a better option than milk for latte art. This trend is one that will stick around. Ditch the creamer and switch up your routine.
7) Test New Recipes
