TRIVIA:
• Kopi Luwak-Civet
- made from the poop of the Asian palm civet (also known as toddy cat,
a feline sized mammal native to South East Asia).
- Civets like to eat red coffee berries and beans. Since they live in
jungle, they find the sweetest and ripest ones. But they cannot digest
them. Humans discovered that the enzymes in the civets tummies
breakdown the bitterness, leaving behind an extremely delicious
pooped bean. The taste is like caramel and chocolate.
- it is worth $30 per cup in a selected coffee shop in Japan and US.
• Kapeng Musang
- Coffee Alamid in Kalinga

Elements in Brewing a Coffee
1. Coffee - refers to the quality and freshness of coffee beans used.
2. Equipment
- Type of coffeemakers:
Percolator
Auto Drip
French Press
Moka
Vietnamese Coffeemaker
Turkish Coffeemaker
Espresso
3. Water
4. Temperature (195⁰F- 205⁰F)
5. Freshness of Coffee Served
• Freshness of Beans
- is determined by the roast date, not when the beans were
harvested. When coffee is roasted, its flavor and aroma will begin
to deteriorate very rapidly. Vacuum and nitrogen injection packaging will
slow down the deterioration process.
Negative Effects of Caffeine
restlessness
nausea
headache
tense muscles
sleep disturbance
irregular heartbeats
it can worsen ulcer symptoms ( it increases stomach acid)
low birth weight
breast cancer
osteoporosis
increases blood pressure
LET’S REFLECT
Coffee plays a vital role on the morning routine of most Filipinos. No wonder,
the country is one of the largest producer of coffee in the world. It is beneficial
when consumed in a controlled amount. On the other hand, it could be harmful
if taken a larger amount habitually.
Barista is one of the emerging trends in the foodservice industry. The skills
should be developed to be accommodated in this job opportunity.
LET’S SUMMARIZE:
Coffee comes from the shrub of genus coffea. The seeds are being
used in making coffee.
There are four major varieties of coffee namely Arabica, Exelsa,
Liberica, and Robusta. Arabica has the highest grade.
Different styles of coffee are available in the market today. In fact,
decaffeinated coffee are also served to better cater customers with
health conditions.
Espresso machine is mainly used in the preparation of coffee by a
barista
(one who prepares coffee). However, there are other equipment used
like French press, broiler etc.
It can give positive and negative effects.
