They become the perfect companions for a gloomy day, for a bit of relaxation at home or even to enjoy a moment of sharing with friends and family.
Add it to a coffee and you’re done!
In this new article from ABCoffee, Caffè Ernani’s weekly blog, I want to tell you about this new reality I just discovered and also recommend the type of coffee to pair it with!
StoPuzzle
For the founders of this new brand, the concept of puzzle is linked to pause, relaxation and the importance of taking time for yourself. Unplug and dedicate yourself to an activity useful for daily well-being.Quando affronti un puzzle infatti entri in una dimensione diversa, dove il tempo sembra rallentare. At that moment, stop thinking about all the responsibilities and the thousand thoughts that usually crowd your mind.
Puzzles help reduce stress and stimulate the mind, improving concentration and creativity.
And I, Martina, can only confirm it!
I may be a little biased, but I have always loved puzzles. They are perfect for calming down and getting back to breathing, focusing and learning patience, all through a fun and engaging activity, taking your mind off the frenzy of the current world.
If we then think about the ideal moment for a classic Italian break, the first thing that we all think of is coffee! Why not combine these two worlds?
Imagine sitting comfortably, sipping your hot coffee as the minutes and hours stand still for a moment.
StoPuzzle’s strengths!
- Supreme quality, puzzles made from premium materials, built to last.
- Epic works of art, artists were recruited to create masterpieces to be framed.
- Next level challenges, puzzles are designed to test even the brightest minds. Prepare to sweat, to test your patience!
- Shared experiences, puzzles can be a solitary activity, but with StoPuzzle you can be part of a close-knit and passionate community.
- Satisfaction guaranteed (or almost)
- Brain Stretching: During this activity, in fact, both parts of the brain are stimulated: the left hemisphere, responsible for logical and analytical thinking, and the right hemisphere, linked to creativity and intuition. This combination helps the brain to remain active and reactive, improving both memory and the ability to solve problems.
- Improve your memory, because when you do a puzzle you always have to remember the details: the shape of the pieces, the colors and their positioning. This continuous stimulation helps improve short-term memory. Problem solving strengthens the connections between brain cells, thus reducing the risk of cognitive decline as we age. Doing puzzles can therefore be considered an excellent exercise to keep the mind young and active.
- Improve concentration, again because while you are looking for the right piece, you have to stay focused for a long time, ignoring distractions. This ability to focus on a specific goal is trained and strengthened every time you put together a puzzle, also improving concentration in daily activities.
Different Puzzles for Different Moments
Finally, the young and close-knit StoPuzzle team thought of creating different puzzles for different situations.
On their website stopuzzle.com you can find puzzles of 1000, 500 and 100 pieces, designed to adapt to the different times available to each person, to the expectations and desires of all enthusiasts:
- 100 pieces: the name of the collection is Jaipur, designed to honor the illustrator’s Indian origins. Her art focuses on nature and the natural elements that surround her. She pays attention to details, colors and the introduction of decorative elements that are connected to nature, including leaves, fruits, flowers, plants and natural landscapes, all concentrated in a few minutes of leisure.
- 500 pieces: the perfect choice for those looking for an engaging but not too demanding gaming experience. Ideal for all ages, they offer the right balance between challenge and fun.
- 1000 pieces: ideal for those looking for a more challenging and rewarding experience. Perfect for spending hours of concentration and relaxation, these puzzles offer an engaging gaming experience that captures attention and stimulates the mind. Thanks to their complexity, 1000-piece puzzles are perfect for sharing with friends or family, becoming a group activity that unites and entertains.
Coffee to pair!
Now we have come to the crux of this article: what do we match with a puzzle?
For me the answer is one and only one: a filter coffee!
Coffee is seen by many as a quick break, between one job and another, to be gulped down like a bitter medicine. All this does not apply if you opt for a filter coffee and especially if it is of quality.
As all Ernani customers already know, read their reviews, we differentiate ourselves from the vast majority of Italian roasters for our Medium Roast, which allows us to obtain intense coffees rich in aromas and flavors, without making the drink too bitter, thus eliminating the risk of that burnt aftertaste that no one ever likes.
So think about buying a high-quality coffee and enjoying this drink not for one or two sips, but for the duration of a whole Mug cup.
Filter coffee is a very long and enveloping drink, in which the bitterness disappears completely, leaving ample space for all the natural aromas of the beans to express themselves to their full potential.
It is a drink that requires the right attention both in preparation and in tasting, savoring every single sip.
This kind of extraction ultimately relaxes, does not excite, makes you breathe and slows down our increasingly frenetic routines.
Match the filter coffee to a puzzle and you’re done!
Additionally, caffeine can improve various aspects of brain function, such as mood, reaction time, alertness, learning ability, and attention span.
Not only that, coffee can also have a positive effect on memory, both short-term and long-term, strengthening the ability to recognize images, and making memories clearer and more memorable.
What a perfect match!
Where can I find filter coffee?
Filter coffees are alternative preparation methods to the classic espresso, such as the moka. There are also hundreds of different tools and just as many recipes.
