Balance er et udtryk for, hvordan smagsbalancen i den pågældende kaffe er. Det er altså, hvordan sødmen balancerer med syrligheden, eller hvordan sødmen balancerer med bitterheden i kaffen. En balanceret kaffe vil typisk være en, hvor sødme, syrlighed og bitterhed er i balance, og hvor ingen af smagende dominerer.
You probably have an idea of what balance means. But are you also fully aware of what it means in the context of coffee cupping, and the taste that unfolds in the cup?

Balance is an expression of how the flavour balance of the coffee in question is. That is, how the sweetness balances with the acidity, or how the sweetness balances with the bitterness of the coffee. A balanced coffee will typically be one where sweetness, acidity and bitterness are in balance, and where none of the flavours dominates.
