Through a scientific study at the University of Oregon in the US, a team of researchers discovered a simple and easy trick to improve the taste and flavor of coffee.

According to a study published on the Science Alert website, the solution to improving the taste of coffee is to add some water before grinding the coffee beans, as water helps reduce the static electricity generated during grinding, which negatively affects coffee. Distribution of grains and flavorings.

Chemist Christopher Hendon, one of the study's authors, said: “Water acts as a conductor of electrical charges and prevents the formation of solid lumps in the coffee beans, allowing for regular and uniform grinding.” Hendon advises coffee lovers to try adding a drop of water to the beans before grinding them, and notice the difference in taste and aroma.

Hendon added, “There is no fixed rule for the proper amount of water, but he advises starting with a drop and increasing gradually until the desired result is achieved.” The amount can vary depending on the type of coffee, he says. Degree of roasting, and degree of grinding. The study piqued the interest of experts in the coffee industry, who appreciated the scientific effort to understand the mechanism of water's effect on coffee.
