The Coffee Taste Test…would You Know The Difference!
That rich caffeine aroma, that smooth coffee taste…we’ve all sampled enough coffee to know what exactly constitutes a good cup!
But do you think you’d be able to tell the difference between a high street coffee chains coffee when compared with a regular office coffee machines offering?
Well I put this to the test…and the results were ‘somewhat’ surprising.
Out of 20 people tested only 2 managed to spot the difference between shop brewed and machine brewed…I’d say that was pretty damn amazing!
This proved to me, that office coffee machines are a fantastic way to achieve high street quality coffee in half the time and for half the price – who would have thought that 5years ago, when the office coffee machine looked more like a giant refrigerator than a distributer of tasty beverages.
Nowadays drinks machines offer you a wide selection of teas, coffees and hot chocolates, capable of keeping event he most fussy fruit tea enthusiast happy.
With more and more drinks machines hitting the market I thought I’d look into what exactly is available for the small office owner. I came across a company called Flavia whose desktop Flavia creation 400 fits neatly onto any available space and takes up minimal room whilst providing maximum taste.
With drinks machines beginning to rival mainstream coffee companies, is it any wonder that people are choosing to ‘drink in’ rather than pay crazy high prices for a small shot of espresso from some of these larger high street chains.
In the taste test I conducted it showed that quality is prevailing, and just because you decide to have a latte from the drinks machine, it doesn’t mean that you’re compromising on taste.
Many coffee machine manufacturers now source their coffee from all over the world, with many richly ground beans being imported from places such as Costa Rica and Colombia. So you can rest assured that with each sip, you’re enjoying freshly brewed coffee that even the Colombians would be proud of.
Why not try the taste test yourself… I guarantee you’ll be surprised at the results!
