I love coffee and I love cocktails, and Dissolved Solids (@dissolvedsolids) is one place that ticks both these boxes perfectly for me. It’s a bar/cafe that serves great coffee and great cocktails, and of course some great coffee cocktails as well. I was there earlier this week on a whim for a revisit, and was happy to see they’ve got a CNY cocktail menu right now, and you get some cool angpau packets for free with every order from that menu. I tried the Drunken, Panda (made with a Scotch + bourbon blend, soy, marula cream, liqueur, gоії, and grass jelly), and it was a lovely desserty drink. I especially liked the edible goji and glass jelly in the drink, so yummy! And of course, I also had to have an Espresso Martini, which I havr to say is one of the best I’ve had in KL. The creamy, caffeine-soaked power of the coffee is balanced nicely with the vodka and also allows just a smattering of sweetness to come through to add some depth. If you love coffee, this is a must try cocktail here. If you’re not in the mood for cocktails, their coffee is pretty good as well, and I love the fact that you get both a cafe AND a bar vibe here at the same time. Dissolved Solids is one of those places I would definitely visit a lot more if they were closer to me or easier to get to via public transport. But don’t let that stop you from checking it out if you haven’t already. #dissolvedsolids #cocktailbar #cocktails #coffeecocktail #coffee #cafebar #klcocktailbar #tipsyturvycocktails #tipsyturvybars #mytipsyturvy #barreview (at Dissolved Solids) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnTQn3kJWIl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#StuckatHome No.59: Discovered a new spot and fell in love immediately with the chill vibe it projects and the amazing customised cocktails they serve. The menu was actually incredibly comprehensive, ranging from coffee, tea to cocktails but I opted to let faith have its day and let the bartender bid his magic. Oh wow. I could get used to this. p.s. I think one of the reason why this tastes so good is the Monin they use. Yum. / #dissolvedsolids #speakeasy #monin #PetalingJaya #Malaysia #Cafe #Travel #Travels #wanderlust #vsco #vscotravel #igworldclub #igtravel #tlasia #inspirationcultmag #culture #travelgram #travelawesome #travelcommunity #traveler #beautifulplaces #traveldestination #TLAsia #travelphotography #klookstories (at Dissolved Solids) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL0yEF6pRLm/?igshid=1m45b3aj66nbk

咖啡不好喝，你可能忽略了水的問題~

　　有沒有碰到過這樣的情況，你費了很多新竹咖啡廳心力研究產地，了解烘焙的方式以及確認烘焙完成的時間，最終選擇了一款咖啡豆，把它帶回了家，期待在某個周末新竹早午餐的早上研磨、衝煮。然而得到的咖啡並沒有你想像的那麼美味。然後你會怎麼做?放棄這款豆子，再換另外一種嗎?且慢，或許你真的錯怪了你的咖啡豆，咖啡師給你的建議也許��請換一下「水」試試。 　　一杯咖啡中，水是重要的成分，在意式濃縮咖啡中水占了大約90%，在濾泡式咖啡中則占98。5%。假如用來衝泡咖啡的水一開始就不美味，咖啡也絕對不可能好喝。假如你能在水裡嘗出氯的味道，煮出來的咖啡味道也會很恐怖。多數情況下，你只要使用含有活性炭的濾水器，就可以有效去除負面的味道，但可能還沒辦法得到衝煮咖啡最完美的水質。 　　在衝煮過程中，水扮演著溶劑的角色，負責萃取出咖啡粉內的風味成分，因為水的硬度以及礦物質含量會影響咖啡的萃取效率，所以水質相當重要。 　　硬度 　　水的硬度是水中含有多少水垢(碳酸鈣)的數值，成因來自當地的岩床結構，將水加熱會讓水垢從水中透析而出，長時間下來，粉筆般的白色物質就開始堆積。住在硬水質區的人時常有這樣的困擾，像是熱水壺、蓮蓬頭還有洗碗機，都會堆積水垢。 　　水的硬度對熱水與咖啡粉之間的交互作用有極大影響，硬水會改變咖啡粉內可溶出物質的比例，進而改變咖啡汁液的化學成分比例。理想的水中含有少量的硬度，但如果含量過高甚至極高，就不適合泡咖啡。高硬度的水泡出的咖啡缺乏層次感、甜味及復雜性，此外就實用的角度而言，使用任何一種需要加熱水的咖啡機，像是濾泡式咖啡機或意式濃縮咖啡機時，軟水是很重要的一項條件。機器內堆積的水垢很快會造成機器故障，因此許多制造商會考慮不向硬水地區提供保修服務。 　　礦物質含量 　　水除了好喝、只能有少量硬度，我們其實不希望水裡含有其他太多的東西── 除了相對含量很低的礦物質。礦泉水制造商會在瓶上列出不同的礦物質成分含量，通常也會告訴你水中總固體含量(total dissolvedsolids， TDS)，或是在180℃時干燥殘留物的數值。 　　衝泡咖啡的水要如何選擇 新竹義大利麵　　述各項信息也許令人眼花繚亂，但是可以歸納如下： 　　·假如你居住在水質中度偏軟的地區，只需加上濾水器就可以改��水的味道。 　　·假如你居住在水質偏硬的地區，目前最佳解決方式是購買瓶裝飲用水煮咖啡，依照前述標准選購瓶裝水。

Irish Godfather, by @DissolvedSolids: Jameson Black Barrel, Kahlua, Amaretto, Ristretto Coffee. . Been meaning to try our Dissolved Solids for AGES, but never really had the chance to. . Then I recently got the chance to preview the new Bar United virtual platform presented by Chivas Malaysia, and it was on the list of bars you could order drinks from and get it delivered. Yay! . If you like coffee, Irish whiskey, or Irish Coffee without cream, then this is for you. Ordered this one and the Hemingway Daiquiri, which I haven’t tried yet. . Bar United is a new virtual platform that aims to reunite the bars and their communities despite the current circumstances. You can order drinks from several bars and get them delivered, and invite your friends to hangout in the virtual bar. . The platform goes live on 13 August. More details later! . #BarUnitedMY #ChivasMY #tipsyturvycocktails #mytipsyturvy #virtualbar #dissolvedsolids https://www.instagram.com/p/CDquikdpq3e/?igshid=1wqk4x7ne21r5
