Ground coffee for brewing in a cup

What is live coffee?

The name of the product means that it contains more valuable nutrients than usual. Freshly harvested coffee beans contain many vitamins, minerals and other active substances. But long-term storage and heat treatment lead to the fact that most of them are lost.

Live coffee is produced using a special technology that allows it to retain a significant proportion of beneficial nutrients. It is important that the raw materials are not stored for a long time before frying, but are as fresh as possible. The shelf life of finished products is only six months. After this, coffee is considered ordinary, also devoid of the unique aroma and taste characteristic of the living.

Differences between live coffee and regular coffee:

• short shelf life - up to 6 months;
• live has a more tart taste and pronounced aroma;
• the smell does not last long at all; after a month in some varieties it may completely disappear.

In Russia, LIVE GROUP is the only company that produces live coffee. The natural product has a wide range - from well-known blends to elite single varieties. Due to the fact that the production is located in the Russian Federation, there is an opportunity to try a fresh drink of the highest quality.

Advantages and characteristics

Live coffee contains about 120 components, vitamins, and minerals that benefit the human body. From the moment of roasting, the maximum content of unique components in the beans is maintained during the first 6 months. After this period, the value of the grain drink noticeably decreases, as well as the brightness of taste and aroma.

Reviews

Elena, Samara:

I bought ORIGINAL ground live coffee at Pyaterochka. The smell was felt even through the package; the production date was released about a month ago. I didn’t like that the degree of grinding was not indicated. Too small for a geyser coffee maker will not work. The aroma is invigorating, the strength is good, and fortunately the grinding didn’t upset me either.

Maria, Russia:

I decided to try coffee for brewing in a cup. The variety I chose was Arabica. Brews quickly. But there are also a lot of shortcomings - the coffee taste is too soft and the tobacco taste is too strong. In short, a sea of ​​promises, but in reality it’s not for everyone.

Dmitry, Moscow:

I read negative reviews and am amazed. Buy fresh product! The expiration date is also indicated there. I order delivery to the office from the manufacturer. There are different varieties, everyone likes them.

Can Arabica be brewed in a Turkish coffee pot?

You can brew ground “live” coffee using a Turkish coffee pot. The only thing a coffee lover should remember is that finely grinding beans can burn to the bottom of the cezve. It is not recommended to bring the drink to a boil.

To prepare the drink, pour a couple of spoons of Arabica coffee and 100 ml of water into the pot. Place the cezve on low heat. When the bubbles begin to rise, remove the espresso from the heat and enjoy its exquisite aroma. Espresso goes well with milk and cream, so don't be afraid to mix it up. Enjoy your coffee.

Good day, dear readers! Today we’ll talk about what live coffee is. The drink is a real invigorating drink for many people, which allows them to wake up in the morning and get a boost of energy. However, not everyone can boast of truly aromatic coffee, since very often this drink reaches us at the end of its shelf life. This means that all the aroma almost has time to fizzle out and what ends up on the table is not the best version of the drink.

However, now live coffee is produced in Russia, which, due to the reduced transportation time, can retain its taste, color and quality.

For Russia, this drink is new, since many consumers have not seen it on sale before. But in fact, it appeared back in 2005, more than 10 years ago. During this time, the company that produces this product has taken one of the first places in the market.

We recommend drinking this drink from the Czech Leander porcelain set
