Steps:
- 1. Combine cocoa, salt and cinnamon in 3 quart saucepan. Add *sweetened* condensed milk; mix well.
- 2. SLOWLY stir in water and coffee over medium low heat. Heat thoroughly, but don't boil. Serve warm.
- 3. Serve warm plain, with canned whipped cream and/or a sprinkle of cinnamon and a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
- 4. Storage: Brazilian coffee may be stored in refrigerator for up to 5 days. To use, mix well and reheat in microwave to just below boiling.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality coffee beans: The quality of your coffee beans will have a significant impact on the taste of your coffee. Look for beans that are freshly roasted and have a good aroma.
- Use the right grind size: The grind size of your coffee beans will also affect the taste of your coffee. For drip coffee, use a medium-coarse grind. For espresso, use a fine grind.
- Use the right amount of coffee: The amount of coffee you use will also affect the taste of your coffee. For drip coffee, use about 2 tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of water. For espresso, use about 18 grams of coffee per 1 ounce of water.
- Brew your coffee at the right temperature: The ideal brewing temperature for coffee is between 195 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit. If the water is too hot, it will extract too much bitterness from the coffee beans. If the water is too cold, it will not extract enough flavor from the coffee beans.
- Store your coffee properly: Coffee beans should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. This will help to preserve the flavor of the coffee beans.
Conclusion:
Making delicious coffee at home is easy if you follow these simple tips. By choosing high-quality coffee beans, using the right grind size and amount of coffee, brewing your coffee at the right temperature, and storing your coffee properly, you can enjoy a delicious cup of coffee every day.
