The darker the coffee beans roast, the stronger the flavor, so the coffee you're drinking now, it's more likely to bring out the coffee.

Although it is windy under the shade, I still don't understand the sense of suffocation caused by the slow air. A unique teaching is being carried out in the classroom of Xinzhuang Blind Reconstruction Hospital.

"the deeper the coffee beans are roasted, the stronger the taste will be, so the coffee you are drinking now can bring out the purity of the coffee." Barista Lin Huan is taking the blind cadets of Xinzhuang Blind Reconstruction Hospital to drink the coffee they have just brewed.

Lin Huan, a barista who won an award in the International Coffee draw Competition, officially opened a class at the Xinzhuang Reconstruction Institute for the Blind in July, teaching contents ranging from static coffee knowledge to dynamic actual brewing. Lin Huan said, "at first, it was the dean of the Reconstruction Institute for the Blind who mentioned the idea of teaching to my colleagues. Later, after we went to the field to observe and understand it, we decided to start the course."

The students of the reconstruction institute for the blind are either weak or completely blind, and teaching is more difficult than ordinary students. "the staff of the Reconstruction Institute told me that it was very difficult for these students to go to 7 / 11, and it would be a great sense of achievement if they could make a cup of coffee by themselves." Lin Huan said.

Special exercises have been done to teach Lin Huan. "I started with the Italian coffee machine, because I think the best tool can help students gain a sense of achievement or further employment. The best tool is the Italian coffee machine, because this is the mainstream, so I tried to close my eyes. When I started, I found it very difficult." Lin Huan said. The hardest part is to accurately pour the milk into the steel cup and catch the exact amount. In addition, to hit the milk foam, it is easy to be scalded by the steam pipe, so for the sake of safety, give up this practice.

Finally, the dynamic teaching is mainly based on hand flushing, and different teaching is done according to total blindness or amblyopia. Lin Huan said: "

For students who are completely blind, I would prefer him to cook with a metal filter, because there is often a habit among the students, that is, one hand is touching the instrument and the other is doing the movement. when injecting water, his other hand is easily drenched by hot water, so I can only ask him to inject water right in the middle. So the filter cup must lock the metal filter mesh or the smart filter cup. "

For people with amblyopia, Lin Huan suggests that filter paper should be flushed by hand. "if he still has some micro vision, he can still practice steady water injection and circling. Because, I think it's like wearing glasses with the wrong degree, but you can still do a reasonable move. " Lin Huan said.

In the course, Zhifeng, a completely blind student, experienced the process from grinding beans to cooking. Although Lin Huan's assistance was needed, he did pour water directly from the middle to cook, so that Zhifeng, who was completely blind, could operate more stably. Zhifeng said: "it feels like a sense of achievement."

Peng Cheng-Yao, a student with amblyopia, has a relatively stable approach. "I think it's still a good thing to be able to do it yourself," he said. " Whether you can see or not, as long as there is upward motivation, the world will be a better place. Huang Lingxiang / reporting from Taipei

In order to open a course in Xinzhuang Reconstruction Institute for the Blind, Lin Huan conducted special training to simulate the state of the blind using an Italian coffee machine. Photo taken by Gao Dajun
