Do you know anything about your coffee filter? (Chemex,hario,tiamo filter paper comparison)

Together with Chemex this time, I bought the original filter paper, which is about 1.7-1.90 yuan per piece, which is expensive as consumable materials (Hairo filter paper is about 0.30 yuan per sheet, Tiamo's is even lower).

[fill with filter paper, Chemex to be used]

[Chemex has a special cone, which makes the filled coffee slender, and the water takes a little longer to soak the coffee than the wide cone of hario and Tiamo]

In order to let you have a more specific understanding of the Chemex filter paper, made the following comparison, the comparison method may not be scientific and accurate, but you can still have a general understanding of it from the side.

The comparative samples selected are hario and Tiamo's 1-person tapered filter paper, which are the consumables used by most friends who play hand flushing. Mainly from the following aspects:

Price: there is no need to say much about this.

Filtration: in the process of using different filter paper, I found that the filtration of different brands of filter paper is different, resulting in differences in coffee soaking time, in order to maintain consistency in the process of making coffee, you should try your best to maintain the standardization of coffee soaking time, so it is important to understand the filterability of filter paper. The reference value of direct water injection may be more accurate without filling coffee, but I think after all, the filter paper should be filled with coffee, so the time in the table below is measured by filling 17 grams of coffee powder, injecting 300 milliliters of water and steaming for 20 seconds.

The taste of filter paper itself: the biggest disadvantage of using filter paper may be the effect of the taste of this kind of pulp on coffee. This comparison is based on the smell of coffee powder during stewing after the infiltration of filter paper.

Other aspects

Chemex arc filter paper 1-3cup

About 1.7-1.9 yuan per page (repeated use can be reduced to 0.56-0.6 yuan per page)

Strong for about 2 minutes and 50 seconds

There is almost no smell of filter paper.

The filter paper can be cleaned after use and used repeatedly for 2-3 times to indirectly reduce the cost table.

Hairo Vmur01 filter paper

About 0.35 yuan per page

Medium strength is about 3 minutes and 10 seconds.

The wood pulp taste of filter paper is very obvious.

None

Tiamo Vmur01 filter paper

About 0.27 yuan per page

Medium and weak about 3 minutes and 35 seconds

It smells like filter paper, but it's weak.

The texture of the filter paper is thin, and the suitability of the water injection cup is not very ideal.

To add one point to the above table, I would like to say that the filter paper of Tiamo is quite unstable, different from each other, the filtration capacity may be very different, sometimes the speed is very fast, sometimes it may be very slow, so I like the filter paper of tiamo least, and the price may be its only advantage.

Among the three kinds of filter paper, Chemex filter paper is the most expensive, but if you look at it objectively, it is not the case. If you use it repeatedly for 3 times, the price can be reduced to 50 cents per page, which also includes the high freight from abroad to China. If you use "human flesh" express delivery, then the price will be very advantageous.

Hario filter paper can be said to be in order, with its V-shaped cup of the large number of possession, its original filter paper is absolutely the first choice.

[compared with brand-new unused Chmexe filter paper after two consecutive uses]

Some people may ask, will the washed filter paper leave the residual flavor of the last coffee? I dare not say no, but I made it for more than 7 hours before and after two times, and there was no obvious miscellaneous smell, and the impact on the taste of the latter cup of coffee was almost ignored. I think it should be no problem just to dry after washing and drying as soon as possible.

[now, enjoy your coffee]

It is not difficult to make a cup of drip rate coffee, but it is not easy to make a good cup of drip rate coffee. Like Italian coffee, there are many variables you need to grasp, such as water quality, water injection, drip rate time, coffee grinding degree and so on. You need to grasp each variable and constantly adjust it, so as to finally find the kind of experience you need for your taste buds.
