If you drink coffee often, you may have noticed that sometimes the contents of your cup acquire an unpleasant sour taste.
If you brewed a variety that has a slight sourness, then this is, of course, normal.
A number of manufacturers specifically enrich coffee with a fruity-acidic flavor.
This drink is in demand among a certain circle of connoisseurs.
A slight sourness can be found in several varieties that come to us from Honduras, Rwanda, Ethiopia and Kenya.
But if the presence of a sour taste was not expected, then the reason should be sought in mistakes made out of ignorance.
So, it is quite possible that you have added too much water when making coffee.
If there is more liquid than required, the flavors will not be released from the coffee powder correctly.
There is, of course, a way out, and it lies in maintaining the correct proportions.
In addition, an unusual taste of coffee may appear as a result of improper storage of the product.
Mistakes can lead to fermentation and oxidation of the dry product - in which case you should not be surprised by the sour taste.
Finally, such a problem can occur if poor quality or old beans were used when brewing coffee.
