How to create the perfect cup of coffee

Our world class Barista shows you how to create the perfect cup of coffee

Nothing beats the rich and sensuous aroma of freshly ground beans or the dark notes that waft from a recently poured cup of coffee in the morning.

While much of the flavour will depend on your choice of bean whether it be Arabica, Liberica or Robusta the altitude at which its grown, alongside precise blending and roasting processes are all key factors that culminate in creating the perfect cup.

Whether you prefer the richness of a Columbian Robusta or are more partial to an Ethiopian Arabica, for those of us who are serious about our coffee, the flavour and aroma of each magical cup is part of a ritual that helps set us up for the day ahead.

Yet when it comes to making our own coffee, it can be difficult to recapture that professionally made coffee most of us enjoy from our high street coffee shops.

In this video feature, expert barista David Cooper will show you how to make the perfect espresso, latte and cappuccino using both Bean-to-Cup and Bar-Pump machines. Having judged the 2008 World Barista Championships, David certainly knows his beans and gives us an insight into the history and culture of arguably the worlds favourite beverage.

Can't watch this without cringing. Now I'm off to find "15 bars of professional pressure"!

Nothing can beat Kato's cup of coffee from the green hornet in my opinion.

Get your missus to make it for you in the morning. Perfect...

[Oshtinpowers]

who gives a crap about 15bars of pressure and 'mild to medium roasts' with tampering and frothy milk, i just put the stuff in the little machine i bought for £9 and it makes an epic cup in my opinion...
