Decorate your drinks in a special way and surprise your colleagues and friends with the thematic drink list. Barista from MIKO Premium Tastes and JUR Pavel Erofeev shares simple recipes (calculation of a portion ─ for two people) and advises to remember important points when brewing coffee. “You can prepare the 'base' coffee in any convenient way ─ both in the French press and in the Turkish, ─ says the barista. - The optimal grinding for making coffee in a French press is coarse; for making in a Turkish coffee, it is as fine as possible, literally ground into dust, coffee. When preparing coffee in a Turk, do not bring it to a boil - as soon as the foam appears, immediately remove it from the heat, if necessary - for a richer taste - repeat the operation a couple of times."
