What is coffee concentrate?
Coffee concentrate is basically super strong coffee, so strong that you need to dilute it. It costs much less per cup than a drink from your favorite coffeehouse, and it is extremely versatile. You can use it for hot or iced drinks, black, with milk or dairy alternative, or even as a cooking ingredient.
Zappy’s Coffee Concentrate is made with 100% Arabica coffee beans. Did you know, there are more than 100 different species of coffee beans, but the two main ones used are Arabica and Robusta.
Arabica coffee beans generally taste sweeter than Robusta and have subtle nutty and chocolate flavor notes. They contain less caffeine than Robusta and have a smoother texture in your mouth compared to Robusta.
How is Zappy’s coffee concentrate made?
Zappy’s Coffee Concentrates are made using a process similar to cold brew that carefully immerses the ground coffee beans in cold water for a much longer brew time. This method allows the flavor of the ground beans to be slowly extracted which produces a highly dense coffee. This cold-water extraction method produces the highest quality coffee concentrate.
The coffee extract is then mixed with triple-filtered water to create a smooth concentrate with maximum intensity and richness.
Because Zappy’s Coffee Concentrates are made with 100% Arabica coffee beans and use the cold-water extraction method, they are of superior quality with an incredibly consistent flavor and texture.
How do you use coffee concentrate?
The great thing about coffee concentrate is its simplicity. It’s incredibly versatile which means you can make hot or iced coffee in seconds. Think of it as espresso bottled, just one 5ml teaspoon is equivalent to a single shot of espresso! Pop one or two teaspoons into your cup and you are one more step away from creating a delicious hot or iced coffee.
Just add hot water for a delicious and smooth Americano, or put a couple of teaspoons of coffee concentrate over ice and add milk or dairy alternative for an incredible iced latte in less than a minute!
You get to choose the strength of your coffee quickly and easily. Supercharged or super subtle, the power is in your hands!
When a recipe calls for coffee you are ready to go! No fuss, no need to prep, no leftover coffee grounds to deal with. If you are a coffee lover the possibilities are endless, it’s no wonder it’s becoming popular with people who love great tasting coffee but don’t always have time to make it from scratch.
What is flavored coffee concentrate?
