Coffee has its ups and downs

News posted by www.newsinfoline.com

Over the last few years, urban India has acquired a new coffee culture. While, south Indian filtered coffee has been a tradition, India in general is waking up to coffee.The coffee we drink is blended from various different beans. Blending is done by creative artists in the coffee world. They choose the combination of beans in order to produce desirable brews. Several forms of coffee can be found: decaffeinated, instant, iced and flavoured. Many health conscious people have turned to decaffeinated coffee, but there have been questions over the decaffeinating process itself. Several decaffinating processes involve the use of carbon-dioxide, ethylacetate, and methylchloride or coffee oils. Now, most decaffeinated coffee is made using water and steam with no chemical solvents and are, therefore, safe. Instant coffee powders contain dry, powdered water-soluble solids produced by drying very strongly brewed coffee. This coffee should be kept packed in air-tight containers because they tend to absorb moisture. Coffee contains more than 400 chemicals including trace amounts of vitamins, minerals and high concentration of anti-oxidants. Caffeine is the main stimulant. A regular cup of coffee contains approximately 100 mg of caffeine. The caffeine content varies depending on how strong the coffee is made. Caffeine increases epinephrine (adrenaline) release, which stimulates the central nervous system, increases alertness and increases heartbeat. View All123Next >
