Coffee Roasting

你喜欢喝咖啡吗？你想要烘焙出那杯最合自己口味的完美咖啡吗？读读这篇短文，或许你会找到一点灵感哦，哈哈！

While1)roasting is an important part in the process of making coffee, it really all starts with the bean itself. You can ruin a2)good-quality bean, but you can’t magically make a bad-quality bean great. That’s why coffee buyers as well as roasters, spend a lot of time3)selecting their beans.

During the roasting process, the beans are kept moving, so they don’t burn. As the beans roast, the internal temperature of the beans changes, and as it does, so does the color. You need to roast well to get a good-tasting coffee. When a roaster gets a new coffee in, it may take a few4)rounds of roasting before getting the roast right.

So what’s the “perfect roast?” That’s up to personal preference. Really, it’s less about the roast and more about the coffee itself.词组加油站

尽管烘焙是咖啡制作过程中的重要一环，但一切都是从咖啡豆本身开始的。你或许会糟蹋了上好的咖啡豆，但如果使用劣质的咖啡豆，你绝不能变魔术般地制作出上等咖啡。这也就是为什么买咖啡的人和烘焙师要花费大量时间挑选咖啡豆的原因。

在烘焙的过程中，你需要不断翻动咖啡豆，这样它们才不会烧焦。咖啡豆的内部温度和颜色会在烘焙的过程中发生变化。烘焙的质量决定你能否制作出美味的咖啡。当烘焙者要制作新品咖啡时，或许他得经过好几轮的烘焙才能找到合适的烘焙方式。

那么什么才算得上是“完美的烘焙”呢？这取决于个人的喜好。诚然，我们更看重的是咖啡本身，而不是烘焙。
