Hot Coffee Vs Cold Coffee
July 30, 2009
Coffee is a favourite beverage of people today. Even though coffee is consumed all over the world, quality, taste, flavour and aroma varies from place to place. Different types of coffee are liked by people in different countries and regions. Even in the same country there are various types of coffee preferred by the consumers. It is doubtful whether there is any other item of food or drink which is consumed in such diverse forms. When the people of the United States and Continental countries like to drink Espresso, people in the east consume coffee boiled with pepper and ginger to cure ailments like common cold or sore throat. The Cubans drink bitter coffee whereas Indonesians like coffee with smooth flavour. Coffee’s adaptability to diverse tastes and preferences is a remarkable phenomenon.
Apart from taste and flavour, people invariably like to drink coffee both hot and cold. Some believe that coffee can offer them that unique ‘punch’ only when it is consumed piping hot. It is presumed that caffeine becomes more active when coffee is served hot. They also believe that aroma is more intense in hot coffee than in the cold version. From the origin, the beverage was made and consumed hot. Iced or cold coffee is a later introduction. The modern products of cold coffee and other derivates are probably originated in the twentieth century when refrigerators became vogue. But then, cold coffee was a matter of fancy or a symbol of luxury rather than a beverage for daily consumption. Normally, hot coffee is the rule and cold coffee is an exception as far as the food habits are concerned. Cold or iced coffee is considered as a speciality drink. Iced Latte and Iced Mocha are examples in this context. They are made out of Espresso which is flavoured and mixed with iced milk.
In UK iced coffee is a widely consumed item having many branded products in the contemporary scenario. Nestlé is marketing various flavours in cans which can be refrigerated and stored conveniently. Cappuccino and Mochaccino are familiar products available in almost all supermarkets or sale outlets. Apart from commercially sold items cold coffee can be made at home making use of special machines, pots and other accessories available in the market. Cold coffee contains less acid and caffeine as cold brewed concentrate does not retain oil in it. But iced coffee has shorter shelf life. In homes ice cubes are made from brewed coffee. Adding sugar syrup and chocolate strong cold coffee is prepared. The quality of the iced coffee depends on the coffee beans, the methods adopted and roasting process.
Experts who are conversant with the chemistry of coffee brewing are not very sure about the presence of caffeine and oils in the brewed coffee. It is only assumption that the product becomes free from caffeine to a great extent while undergoing cooling process. However it is found that invigorating properties of coffee will be lost when it is cold. Coffee is consumed widely as a beverage of unique taste, colour and flavour. Without such characteristics coffee will be deprived of its originality.
