What does full body mean? Does coffee have to be strong for you to like it?

introduction:

You read the coffee description and see:

Full figure

But what does this mean? Does coffee have to be strong to be considered "excellent"?

Let's explain the issue simply and without complexity.

1. What does "body" mean in coffee?

Aftertaste is the feeling coffee leaves in your mouth after the first sip.

Like the difference between drinking:

  • Water (light)
  • Mango juice concentrate (heavy)

☕ In coffee, the body is affected by:

  • Type of coffee
  • Treatment method
  • Preparation method
  • Grinding and extraction degree

2. Types of body (from lightest to heaviest):

  • Light Body:
  • Soft and light feeling - like tea
  • 🟢 Often with light roasts and washed treatments.
  • Medium Body:
  • A balance between lightness and richness - what dominates the flavors
  • 🟠 Ideal for most people and Central American crops
  • Full Body:
  • Heavy, velvety sensation – fills the mouth
  • 🔴 Most often appears with dark roasts or dry processing.

3. Is coffee with ful body better?

❌ Not necessarily!

✅ The "best" is what suits your taste:

  • Do you like black, light, floral coffee?
  • Stick with light or medium body
  • Do you like espresso or coffee with milk?
  • Jasmine is your excellent choice

4. Recommendations from INGO Store by Body:

🟢 Light-bodied coffee - fruity:

🟠 Medium-bodied coffee - balanced:

✅ Conclusion:

“Fel Badi” is not a judgment on the quality of coffee, it is a description of how you feel in the cup.

Try different types, record your observations, and over time you'll learn what you like best... lightness? Heaviness? Balance?

Most importantly: Enjoy every sip, because you choose it to your taste. 👌
