Balance
Flavours mask each other. With a lot of acidity, sweetness is perceived less, even though nothing in the cup has changed. The same happens with any note that becomes too prominent.
Balance is the relationship between four things: flavour, aftertaste, acidity and body. A coffee is out of balance when one dominates or is too absent.
Raising or lowering concentration changes what masks what, with the same coffee inside.
