Myth Busters
Fiction: Coffee will stay fresh
virtually forever if you put it in the refrigerator or
freezer.
Fact: Both ground coffee and whole-bean
coffee should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark
place away from the fridge or freezer and away from light and heat.
Plus, grinding coffee beans straight out of your freezer can wreck
your grinder.
Fiction: Espresso has more
caffeine than regular coffee does.
Fact: Because the flavor of
espresso is more intense than that of brewed coffee, people assume
espresso has more caffeine, but the reverse is more often the
case.
Fiction: Acidity in coffee correlates
to the drink's pH level and isn't a positive
attribute.
Fact: Acidity refers to a
coffee's characteristics and taste and is believed to come from the
acids present. More acidity translates into a very crisp and bright
brew.
