There are many kinds of coffee pots, different coffee pots require different degrees of coffee powder, the principle and taste of extracted coffee are different, the following is to explain the characteristics of each coffee pot, how to choose?

Drip pot-abbreviation: American coffee maker

The American coffee maker is a classic trickle extraction; the American coffee maker is basically a coffee machine brewed by electric power, which is suitable for moderate or deep roasting coffee with slightly fine grinding particles and bitter taste. After the power is turned on, the high heat element in the coffee pot quickly heats a small part of the water flowing from the water storage tank to boiling, and the steam pressure pushes the water into the water pipe in turn, drips evenly into the filter containing coffee powder through the distribution plate, and then flows into the glass; the power will be cut off automatically after the coffee flows. Switch to heat preservation; the insulation board at the bottom keeps the coffee at about 75 ℃. The American coffee maker has the function of heat preservation, but if the heat preservation time is too long, the coffee will easily turn sour.

Features: simple and fast, convenient and practical, suitable for office.

Palate: the coffee tastes light.

Tea maker-abbreviation: French pressure coffee pot

Originated around 1850; a simple brewing apparatus consisting of a heat-resistant glass bottle and a metal filter with a pressure bar. At first, it was often used to brew black tea, so it was also called tea maker. The French kettle is already a very popular teapot. However, don't underestimate this guy, it's not just pouring coffee powder into it, filling it with water, and casually filtering it out. Like all other coffee pots, the French kettle has strict requirements on coffee grinding particle size, water temperature and extraction time. The principle of the pressure pot: the essence of coffee is released by soaking and stewing through the full contact between water and coffee powder.

Features: easy to operate, simple, necessary for business travel, first choice for office work.

Balanced air stopper-abbreviation: siphon kettle

Siphon pot (Syphon), commonly known as "glass ball" or "siphon", is a simple and easy-to-use method of coffee brewing, and it is also one of the most popular coffee brewing methods in cafes. Siphon pot is definitely a style loved by literary and artistic youth. Coffee is extracted by heating and atmospheric pressure. Compared with the hand-flushing pot, it is relatively easy to operate and easier to standardize. Although the siphon pot has the nickname of "plug wind type", it has nothing to do with the siphon principle, but uses water heating to produce water vapor, causing thermal expansion and cold contraction, pushing the hot water from the lower sphere to the upper pot, and then sucking back the water from the upper pot after the lower pot cools. I made a cup of pure coffee.

Features: manual operation is fun, suitable for friends gathering.

Taste: stewed and extracted, the best single cooking product, mellow, strong fragrance.

Mocha coffee maker

The mocha pot was born in 1933 to extract coffee by the pressure of boiling water. Some Baoshang often calls it an espresso mocha pot, but this is not accurate. Real espresso needs to be done at 9 atmospheric pressures, while the atmospheric pressure of the mocha pot can only reach 1 to 2, which is closer to the dripping coffee machine. The mocha pot is divided into two parts: the water is placed in the lower part to boil to produce vapor pressure; the boiling water rises and passes through the upper half of the filter pot containing coffee powder; when the coffee flows to the upper half, turn off the fire (the mocha pot is rich in oil because it is extracted from coffee under high pressure). It's a good coffee pot for espresso. But when using an aluminum pot, the coffee grease stays on the wall, so when you cook the coffee again, the grease becomes a "protective film". But if it is not used for a long time, the film will rot and produce a peculiar smell.

Features: easy to operate and convenient; brewing espresso is the best.

Palate: the coffee is mellow and full-bodied with a slightly bitter taste

Belgian royal coffee pot

If you want to drink coffee at home, you have to know the Belgian coffee pot. It was already the royal coffee pot of Belgium as early as the 19th century. In order to show the royal style, Belgian craftsmen took great pains to create this elegant kettle, wrapped in gold and cast copper, to make the originally ordinary coffee pot dazzling and dignified, as if it had brought a breath of aristocracy.
