Hand-made coffee

After knowing the background, the next step is to implement it. Here are the detailed steps and precautions for making coffee by hand:

Ground coffee beans: the standard particle size is like No. 2 sugar, can be adjusted, the key point is to uniform particles, you can use a sieve to sift out the ultra-fine powder to avoid being unable to filter. The amount of coffee powder is about half to 2/3 of the filter cup, too little can not control the flow rate of hot water, too much will be full when flushing.

Boiled water: the standard ratio of powder to water is about 1:16, which can also be adjusted according to personal preference. The suitable water temperature is about 90 degrees, which can be measured with a thermometer after boiling.

Preheating: fold the filter paper so that it is flat on the filter cup, soak the filter paper with some hot water and preheat the filter cup, which can also eliminate the smell of the filter paper. Pour out the water after preheating.

Powder: pour the coffee powder into the filter cup and pat the side of the filter cup to make the coffee powder surface slightly flat.

Start timing, first water injection: put the spout near the edge of the filter cup, start injecting water from the center of the filter cup, go around the center to the periphery and then back to the center, soak all the coffee powder and then stop, be careful not to have too much water. At this time, the surface of the coffee powder will produce white bubbles and begin to expand.

Steaming: wait for the coffee powder to stop expanding for about 30 Murray 40 seconds, by which time some extract may have begun to filter out.

Second water injection: when you see the foam begin to collapse, start the second water injection, just like repeat the circle from the center and continue to inject water evenly. This water injection process takes more than 2 minutes, depending on the expected cooking time (it is generally recommended that deep-roasted coffee beans range from 2 to 2 and a half minutes and shallow roasted coffee beans for 2 and a half minutes to 3 minutes).

Rest: after stopping filling, wait for 20-60 seconds to filter, and then pour the coffee into the coffee cup.
