In this instructable I'll show you how to make an iced coffee frappe at a fraction of the cost to buy one at coffee shops.

List of coffee drinks - Wikipedia. A selection of coffee drinks. Coffee drinks are made by brewing hot water (or much less commonly, cold water) with ground coffee beans. The brewing is either done slowly by drip or filter, French press or cafetière, percolator, etc., or done very quickly under pressure by an espresso machine, where the coffee is termed "espresso"—slow- brewed coffees are generally regarded simply as "coffee". All coffee drinks are based on either coffee or espresso, in different strengths; some drinks have milk or cream added, some use steamed milk, cream, plant based milk, or foamed milk, some have flavorings or sweeteners, some have alcoholic liqueurs added, some are combinations of coffee with espresso or tea.[1]With the invention of the Gaggia machine, espresso, and espresso with milk such as cappuccino and latte, spread in popularity from Italy to the UK in the 1. America, and with the rise in popularity of the Italian coffee culture in the 1. The caffeine content in coffee beans may be reduced via one of several decaffeination processes to produce decaffeinated coffee (sometimes known as "decaf" coffee), which may be drunk as regular, espresso or instant coffee.

Infused[edit]Drip or filtered[edit]Drip- brewed, or filtered, coffee is brewed by hot water passing slowly over roasted, ground coffee beans contained in a filter. Water seeps through the ground coffee, absorbing its oils, flavours and essences, solely under gravity, then passes through the bottom of the filter.

Indulge in this frozen mocha frappe a few hours before bedtime; it gets its flavor from strong brewed coffee. Crazy Mocha offers sustainably sourced coffees, teas and a menu of delicious espresso drinks and locally sourced snacks and bites, all in comfortable settings for.

The used coffee grounds are retained in the filter with the liquid falling (dripping) into a collecting vessel such as a carafe or pot. Paper coffee filters were invented in Germany by Melitta Bentz in 1.

To reduce waste, some coffee drinkers use fine wire mesh filters, which can be re- used for years. French press or cafetière[edit]A French press, also known as a press pot, coffee press, coffee plunger, cafetière (UK) or сafetière à piston, is a coffee brewing device patented by Italian designer Attilio Calimani in 1. A French press requires coffee of a coarser grind than does a drip brew coffee filter, as finer grounds will seep through the press filter and into the coffee.[6]Coffee is brewed by placing the ground coffee in the empty beaker and adding hot (9. Celsius, 2. 00- 2. Fahrenheit) water, in proportions of about 2. After approximately four minutes the plunger is pressed to separate the grounds and hold them at the bottom of the beaker, then the coffee is poured.[7] Coffee press users have different preferences for how long to wait before pressing the plunger, with some enthusiasts preferring to wait longer than four minutes. Cold brew[edit]. A display of cold brew coffees in a Whole Foods market.

Cold brewing, also called cold water extraction or cold pressing, is the process of steeping coffee grounds in water at cool temperatures for an extended period. Coarse- ground beans are soaked in water for a prolonged period of time, usually 1. The water is normally kept at room temperature, but chilled water is also used. The grounds are filtered out of the water after they have been steeped using a paper coffee filter, a fine metal sieve, a French press, or felt, in the case of the "Toddy" brewing system. The result is a coffee concentrate that is often diluted with water or milk, and is served hot, over ice, or blended with ice and other ingredients such as chocolate. Slow- drip cold brew, also known as Kyoto- style, or as Dutch coffee in East Asia,[8] refers to a process in which water is dripped through coffee grounds at room temperature over the course of many hours.[9]Because the ground coffee beans in cold- brewed coffee never come into contact with heated water, the process of leaching flavor from the beans produces a chemical profile different from conventional brewing methods.[1. Coffee beans contain a number of constituent parts that are more soluble at higher temperatures, such as caffeine, oils and fatty acids.

Brewing at a lower temperature results in lower acidity and lower caffeine content when brewed in equal volume.[1. It is around 6. 5 to 7. Although less caffeine is extracted with the cold brew method, a higher coffee- to- water ratio is often used, between 2 and 2 1/2 times. This may compensate for this difference in solubility, resulting in a brew with equal, if not more, caffeine (although this is unlikely).[1. Percolated[edit]A coffee percolator is a type of pot used to brew coffee by continually cycling the boiling or nearly- boiling brew through the grounds using gravity until the required strength is reached. There are stove- top percolators and standalone units which contain a built- in heating element.

Percolators were popular until the 1. By the mid- 1. 97. In the 2. 00. 0s, old 1.

Turkish coffee[edit]. Traditional serving of Turkish coffee, with a glass of water and lokum.

Beans for Turkish coffee are ground to a fine powder. Preparation consists of immersing the coffee grounds in water and heating until it just boils.

This method produces the maximum amount of foam. In the Middle East, four degrees of sweetness are used. Winter Melon there.

The Turkish terms and approximate amounts are as follows: sade (plain; no sugar), az şekerli (little sugar; half a level teaspoon of sugar), orta şekerli (medium sugar; one level teaspoon), çok şekerli (a lot of sugar). The coffee and the desired amount of sugar are stirred until all coffee sinks and the sugar is dissolved before boiling. If the coffee is left to boil longer, less foam remains.

Turkish coffee is an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Turkey confirmed by UNESCO.[1. Moka coffee is coffee brewed with a moka pot, a stovetop coffee maker which produces coffee by passing hot water pressurized by steam through ground coffee at a lower pressure than an espresso maker. The moka pot is an Italian invention, first produced by Bialetti in the early 1.

The flavor of moka pot coffee depends greatly on bean variety, roast level, fineness of grind, and the level of heat used. Due to the higher- than- atmospheric pressure involved, the mixture of water and steam reaches temperatures well above 1. C, causing a more efficient extraction of caffeine and flavors from the grounds, and resulting in a stronger brew than that obtained by drip brewing.[citation needed]Vacuum coffee[edit]A vacuum coffee maker brews coffee using two chambers where vapor pressure and vacuum produce coffee.

This type of coffee maker is also known as vac pot, siphon or syphon coffee maker, and was invented by Loeff of Berlin in the 1. These devices have since been used for more than a century in many parts of the world and more recently have been given a new use by molecular mixologists and chefs to make hot cocktails and broths.[1. Espresso[edit]Espresso is brewed by using an espresso machine to force a small amount of nearly boiling water and steam – about 8. C (1. 87 to 2. 03 °F) – under pressure through finely ground and compacted coffee.[1. The espresso machine was patented in 1.

Italy; with the invention of the Gaggia machine, espresso spread in popularity to the UK in the 1. British milk bars,[2. America in the 1.

Espresso is generally denser than coffee brewed by other methods, having a higher concentration of suspended and dissolved solids; it generally has a creamy foam on top termed "crema".[2. Espresso is the base for a number of other coffee drinks, such as latte, cappuccino, macchiato, mocha, and Americano.[2. Caffè Americano. Caffè Americano or simply Americano (the name is also spelled with varying capitalization and use of diacritics: e. Café Americano, Cafe Americano, etc.) is a style of coffee prepared by adding hot water to espresso, giving a similar strength to but different flavor from brewed coffee.

The drink consists of a single or double- shot of espresso combined with between 1 and 1. The strength of an Americano varies with the number of shots of espresso added. In the United States, "Americano" is used broadly to mean combining hot water and espresso in either order.
