When you’re cleaning the kitchen, it’s easy to overlook your countertop appliances. Yes, you give them a swab down and everything looks sparkly from the outside, but it’s inside the machines that problems can occur. The warm, damp, dark interior of coffee makers can become a haven for mould, yeast and bacteria, which are then swilled down through the pipes and into your coffee cup.

The Dalgona coffee craze makes a lot more sense than some lockdown fads. First, it involves coffee and sugar, which is obviously a good thing. Second, you can make one, photograph it and send it to friends to prove – much like a hostage holding the day’s newspaper – that you’re still around. There are a number of variations on this Korean coffee. Essentially, it’s a whipped, upside-down, super-strong cappuccino that you can make with iced or warm milk....
