Unfortunately, no one is immune from buying low-quality ground coffee.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to make truly delicious coffee from such a product.

For this reason, it would be a good idea to learn about a method by which you can distinguish a fake from good coffee.

To find out once and for all which coffee you can buy and which has no place in your shopping cart, conduct a simple experiment at home.

For this you will need the most ordinary sheet of paper - the main thing is that it is clean.

Pour a spoonful of coffee onto a white surface and examine it carefully – you can even use a magnifying glass for this, if you have one.

If you find foreign crystals or suspicious inclusions in the total mass, this means that the manufacturer has saved on its product by including cheaper raw materials (for example, chicory, etc.) in its composition in order to reduce its cost.

Another thing you should pay attention to while doing this simple experiment is the color of the grains.

If they are not uniformly colored, then most likely the roasting technology was violated during production.

Previously, we talked about how coffee grounds can be useful in everyday life.
