Brew the perfect cuppa in Delhi

There is nothing like a freshly brewed cuppa to kick-start your day, more so if you can do that yourself! Brewing the perfect cuppa is an art, and testament to this fact is the easy availability of the coffee-making paraphernalia in the city.

It’s all in the beans
The kind of coffee powder that you choose makes a world of difference. It’s the Arabica, Robusta, Peaberry and the like that seals the deal. Typically found at Barista or Café Coffee Day, these are moderately priced. Costa Coffee similarly offers the same, albeit at a high price. For a far more reasonably-priced option, try out Devan’s, Fresh & Honest Café and Regalia Tea House where the beans can be ground to your liking.

Grind away
Coffee-grinding machines like Kenwood, Black and Decker can be found at Sham Di Haati and National Crockery Emporium and are reasonably priced. These allow you to grind small quantities as well as control the consistency (fine to coarse) to suit your taste.

Coffee machines
There are two kinds of coffee machines: electric and manual.
The electric coffee machine comes with two options: the Drip and the Cappuccino; while the Manual comprises of the French Press and the classic South Indian filter with an added attraction of a Mocha pot, to give your coffee that added zing!

Coffee-making machines are easily available at Popular Enterprise, Sham Di Haati, National Crockery Emporium or your friendly neighbourhood café.
