Coffee Making a Fine Art.
To make a really good cup of coffee
has always been ranked among the fine
arts, perience. requiring considerable skill and ex
bo much so, m fact, that
many persons have tor a lifetime put up
with a decoct on that is coffee only in
name. With proper appliances it is not
at all difficult to make the very bJst cup
of coffee. In boiling coffee we lose all
the delicate flavors c-dkitaincd i-a
berry, and bring out all the noxious
qualities and bitter oils that tend to
make consumers dyspeptic and bilious.
A native of any of the countries where
coffee is grown would ridicu’e and put
awav in disgust what the average Ameri
can has grown accustomed to as liis morn
ing beverage. In Brazil, Ceylon or .lava,
after roasting the coffee it is ground to a
fine powder, and instead of boiling, very
hot water is poured through it and fil
tered. .This gives a beautifully clear
and pure cup of coffee, without any bit
ter or pungent taste. By grinding the
coffee very fine doub’e the strength is
obtained, making the same quantity of
coffee go twice ai far as by the old
fashioned way. There is no waste in the
the coffee coffee grounds, every available part of
being and delicate used, and all the food
properties flavors thorough
ly extracted. To prevent the lino
coffee grounds from getting into the liqu d
a special fabric filter is absolutely
necessary, made as fine no perforated metal Alter
