The Power of Your Palate
trifecta's Air Infusion
and unique press out extract oils
®
and aromatics to produce a unique full bodied beverage.
Becoming more familiar with the depth of flavors produced
by trifecta is an exploration. The terms shown below help
your palate become more versatile. While professional
tasters use vials of scents to train their senses, simply
talking about what you smell and taste with descriptive
terms can be effective. For example, when describing
Acidity, determine if it is low like apple juice, medium like
orange juice, or high like grapefruit juice.
Remember your palate
preference is never wrong!
Coffee houses were
the first, ancient social
networks. Compare tasting
notes with friends and
neighbors to add to your
library of terms.

The 3 brew phases of trifecta
TURBULENCE CYCLE - Turbulence, or a mixing of the
grounds or leaves, is created when air is infused with
water into the Brew Chamber. trifecta's Infusion Setting
adjusts the sequence of mixing and pausing. This is done
to extract rich, deep flavors in coffee or tea.
INFUSION TIME - The time water is in contact with
coffee or tea determines the amount of material
extracted, a major component affecting flavor. The MB5
Infusion Time is pre-programmed to account for different
coffee beans and varying fragility of tea leaves.
PRESS OUT - trifecta's unique Press Out further
amplifies the result in the cup when air in the chamber
presses the beverage through a fine-gauge metal
screen. This pressurized filtering intensifies the
concentrated oils and aromatics not typically retained in
other brew methods.
