Coffee roaster in Warsaw advises: how to remove a coffee stain?

When were the first coffee roasters established in Warsaw? Exactly when coffee arrived in Poland in the 17th century and the custom of drinking it became widespread. In the early days, the roasters were quite small, as coffee was usually roasted at home.

Coffee roasters in Warsaw

It is good to start the day with a cup of delicious coffee. Coffee is what helps us get to grips with our daily chores, giving our bodies a slight boost in the form of natural caffeine. Bestwhen this coffee tastes and smells, aromatising not only the kitchen but also the entire house with its unique fragrance. Coffee is more aromatic the less time has passed since it was roasted and ground.

The first known Polish coffee gourmet was none other than John III Sobieski, and the first café in Vienna was founded by the King's associate, Jerzy Franciszek Kulczycki. He was rewarded with sacks filled with coffee beans for gaining information that contributed to the defeat of Kara Mustafa's army at Vienna. In those days coffee was transported in this way - as raw beans. Roasted coffee beans would then lose all their aroma during the long journey.

Therefore, it is best if coffee beans are roasted close to us, for example in the city where we live, which in my case is Warsaw. Of course, today roasted coffee is not transported in airy yucca bags. Today it is tightly sealed to coffee bean no has lost its aroma as before.

First major coffee roasters in Poland were established in the 18th century. IN THE 19TH age pcoffeemakers has arrived increasingly. After independence finally wolni Poles with enthusiasm startęli departmenttion also in business, so i roasteries was more and more. In communist Poland, coffee became a luxury good, and the smoking rooms coffees in Warsaw were nationalised and quickly went bankrupt. After the fall of the commune, spontaneous development, similar to that of the 1920s, began. Pally of coffee (industrial and kraft) again have emerged in Poland. Today Buying coffee from a good local roaster is not a problem in any major city. W Warsaw there are now plenty of good coffee roasters. DWith these, we can pour fresh, beautifully scented coffee into our coffee machine, espresso machine or directly into a cup.

How to make good coffee?

There are people who, instead of brewing their coffee the godly way, settle for an instant coffee substitute called 3 or 2-in-1, but to them we say our emphatic "E there!". As Captain Wagner said to Oberleutnant von Nogay (the unforgettable Zbigniew Zapasiewicz and Wojciech Pokora in "C.K. Deserters"): 'there are no words in the vocabulary of cultured people that can sufficiently insult such conduct. This is why I use a café, but espresso coffee I will not disdain it either.

My coffee machine is not the same coffee machine that Adam Mickiewicz described in 'Pan Tadeusz'. Mine is a machine - then it was a person. Let us give voice to the national bard:

There were also different dishes for ladies and men.

This is where the trays with all the coffee service were distributed.

Huge trays, in flowers beautifully painted,

On top of them dusty smelling tin teapots,

And from Silesian porcelain, golden cups;

By each a small pot for cream.

There is no coffee like it in Poland.

In Poland, in a decent house, from an old custom,

There is a separate woman to make coffee.

It's called a coffee machine; that brings from the city

Or from the vicinas it takes grains of the best kind,

And he knows the secret ways of cooking liquor,

Which has the blackness of coal, the transparency of amber,

The smell of mocha and the density of honey liquid.

It is well known what good cream is for coffee;

In the countryside, it's not hard to get nia: because the cafe in the morning,

Having set down the teapots, he visits the dairies,

I myself slightly fresh dairy blossom despise

For each cup in a separate pot,

To dress each of them in a separate sheepskin coat

Probably such a 19th century cafe has stained her apron more than once with coffee. I pfrom Independentnego madea coffee also happens.

Coffee stain and now what?

Once stain after coffee meant a great the problem. You had to pour boiling water over it quickly, and then resort to various home remedies: salt, egg yolk, vinegar, baking soda or a mixture of the latter two. And today? WAll it takes is a good washing powder or capsules and the problem is over. After coffee not even the slightest trace.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about stains when brewing coffee in the morning.

To paraphrase Monthy Python in a compelling translation by Tomasz Beksinski: don't brew, brew coffee! Preferably one roasted recently and nearby.

Don't settle for substitutes!
