So you\u2019ve brewed some coffee. You take the first sip, the second, another one\u2026 It is important to evaluate the brew at various temperatures. It may turn out that when the coffee is hot, it tastes very good, while the negative aspects like dryness or astringency come up a moment later. And vice versa. Sometimes a warm brew may seem dull, and when it cools, the acidity or the fruity notes come up.
