Hi All,
A question about tasting and flavour if i may... What is the difference between acidic and spicy flavours in a brew? I know well what the flavours are like in other foods but, really would like to find out about the difference by taste in coffee. I have always (probably wrongly) associated spicy and acidic together - I have a copy of the tasting wheel to help me distinguish/ compare flavours but have not been able to discern the difference yet. I have tasted a lively, citrusy sort of zest in a young (3 days) lot of the columbian I roasted, is this acid?
regards, Frank (Mariner).
