Is it possible to drink coffee brewed in the evening, experts said

A lot of coffee is brewed from the evening to save a few precious minutes in the morning. However, not everyone knows whether it is possible to consume a drink prepared so far in advance.

It is a pity to pour a cup of cooled coffee that you did not have time to drink completely and immediately. It is a great temptation to try to resuscitate it – to bring it to a boil again.

According to experts, if no more than five hours have passed since cooking, there is nothing wrong with that. At the same time, it is important to take into account that the sweet drink spoils faster.

If chilled espresso or Turkish coffee without adding milk and sugar is immediately put in the refrigerator, it can be heated and drunk after a day. Experts do not recommend storing it longer.

It is noted that yesterday's black coffee heated in the microwave or on the stove contains the same amount of caffeine as fresh coffee. For this reason, the invigorating effect will be fully manifested. However, it will not be possible to enjoy your favorite taste.

Such “yesterday's” coffee will not contain essential oils, which give the drink its taste and aroma. Fats in products (including coffee beans) are oxidized quite quickly. There will be a liquid in the cup that only faintly resembles real coffee.

In addition, experts say, no useful substances will remain in the cup. According to them, the grains contain vitamins PP, B1, B2, calcium, potassium and magnesium.

But if we are talking about a steady night of coffee with milk, then such a drink should not be consumed at all. As experts note, harmful bacteria can start to develop in just a few hours at room temperature in a cup. Milk and cream create favorable conditions for the active growth of microorganisms.
