FAQ About Coffee Brewing
What is the difference between a coffee concentrate and regular coffee?
The main difference between coffee concentrate and regular coffee is the brewing method and the strength of the resulting beverage. Coffee concentrate is typically made using a cold brew or hot brewing method that results in a much stronger, more concentrated coffee flavor than regular coffee.
Regular coffee is made by brewing coffee beans with hot water and then serving the resulting brewed coffee. The coffee is typically brewed to a specific strength or ratio, depending on the desired flavor and strength.
In contrast, coffee concentrate is made by brewing coffee beans with water in a much stronger ratio than regular coffee, resulting in a concentrated coffee flavor. This concentrate can then be diluted with water or milk to create a more traditional coffee beverage, or used as a base for other coffee drinks like lattes or iced coffee. Because of its strength, coffee concentrate can be used to make a larger volume of coffee beverages than regular coffee, and it can also be stored for longer periods of time.
