COFFEE
TO NORWAY
The roast was the dominant form of coffee consumption in Norway,
accounting for 93.5% of national consumption, compared to only 6.5% of soluble
coffee. However, the percentage of roasted down from 96.1% in 1997 to 90.9% in
2011, while increasing the use of soluble. The use of coffee capsules was still
limited and represented only 1% of total consumption in 2011.
In Norway, the coffee is taken at all hours, the office, but most of the
home is the main scenarios in which this drink is consumed. In Norway, there
are bars, as we understand them, not least because the supply of alcohol in
public is prohibited for most of the week. Thus, common hospitality venues are
restaurants or eating houses, where, obviously, if they serve coffee. There, as
at home, is prepared normally infusion electric coffee percolators or drip.
During preparation, using between 40 and 50 gr. coffee per liter of water,
which is four times less than for a coffee Espresso. The resulting coffee is,
therefore, very soft, a fact that undoubtedly also contributes to high rates of
consumption of this drink in the country.
The Norwegians have been encouraged to have coffee in the abundance of
coffee bars. The number of coffee shops has increased significantly in recent
years. The American favorite, Starbucks has made its debut in Norway yet, but
there are a significant number of coffee bars owned and operated by different
companies. With only 4.5 million people in Norway, which import 41 tons of
coffee to Norway a year.
Perhaps the reason I drink coffee so much is because of Norwegian social
habits. Norway has cold winters, however, another reason to be drawn to a hot
cup of Java. At dinner, it is common for guests to go to another room after
dinner and coffee with cake and informal socializing often involves meeting and
coffee cake.
In fact, not only Norway and Denmark, all of the Scandinavian countries
leading the way in coffee consumption. Coffee Caffeine can be a necessary
stimulant for a population that is in the dark for half the year. Denmark is
like Norway, with a lot of coffee to make coffee bar very convenient. And
Starbucks is in Denmark. There are some shops in the capital city of
Copenhagen.
Coffee consumption has a social purpose and gives many people a good
start in the morning with a dose of caffeine. The Hot Java dedicated drinkers
live mainly an in cold country, which seems reasonable.
Since 1962, Norwegian Coffee Association has an active program promoting
coffee quality standards, through which has managed to not only ensure that
many of the highest quality coffees that are produced on the planet are
intended the Norwegian market, but also about 94% of the coffee companies in
this country have accepted systematically subjecting all its products and
quality control machinery, and coffee professionals Norwegians are among the
most qualified and recognized in the world.
Thus, when preparing their products, roasters Norwegians are governed by
very strict standards that specify, for example, the correct size ground coffee
beans or the amount of caffeine allowed for each type of coffee. Likewise, and
at the time of the ground, they must also take into account the purpose of the
product and prepare
accordingly. It is processed as a "filter ground" targeting
coffee drip machines. This type of coffee is prepared in such a way that to
achieve its maximum flavor recommended exposure to hot water no more than 4-6
minutes.
Meanwhile, packaged coffees as "boiling ground" should not
exceed 6-8 minutes of exposure. Obviously these times change if brewing is done
with heavier gauge machines. Thus, for example, for automatic ground, exposure
time is fixed at a minute for extra fine ground, between 1 and 4 minutes for
the fine grinding, between 4 and 6 minutes, and finally to the ground more
thick, about 6 to 8 minutes.
The top five sources of imports from Norway accounted for 72.2% of the
total, and 68.6% of that total came from four exporting countries. The top five
suppliers were Brazil (36.9%), Colombia (19.4%), Guatemala (8.7%), Switzerland
(3.6%) and Mexico (3.6%).
