Some brewing equipment contributes to a more aromatic coffee, while others contribute to a strong coffee with a lot of texture (body or mouthfeel). Of course, some equipment also helps to prepare types of coffee between these two features.

The interaction between the compounds that contribute to the flavor and the preparation equipment is mainly influenced by the following aspects:

• The design of the preparation equipment.
• The methodology of the preparation and the porosity of the filter (filtered, immersion, espresso, vacuum, a combination of these).

It must be considered that temperature is fundamental for the extraction of the compounds that contribute to the flavor.

The shape of the tool affects the flow of water in the coffee bed and therefore the uniformity of the extraction could change some parameters of the process.

We don't just think about adding coffee to water. Being a barista goes further. Take into account exact quantities and measurements to obtain a delicious drink, know the tasting and validation process to share the coffee culture, differentiate specific methods and their purposes.

It is a professional person who specializes in the preparation of coffee and beverages based on it through different preparation methods. In addition to knowing about the preparation, the barista has extensive knowledge about the origin of the product and its transformation.

When making coffee, if you don't know much about coffee culture, you can get a regular drink; but having the attention of an expert and who knows how to evaluate the necessary changes for the preparation will allow you to taste a delicious and finely prepared drink for a cup of coffee par excellence.
