The price is flat and easy to use.

In recent years, hand-brewed coffee has certainly taken the lead in replacing Italian-style coffee. Due to the advantages of low price of peripheral appliances and easy access to step skills, hand-made coffee is easy to enter everyone's home. To put it simply, if you have a hand-brewing pot, a coffee filter cup and a bean grinder, you can begin to enter the palace of hand-brewed coffee. If you want to be more sophisticated, you need electronic scales, thermometers, powder sieves and other accessories.

For beginners, you should first choose a hand pot that suits you, and the BALMUDA electric pot is a good choice. It is convenient to heat water in the pot, not only to make coffee, but also to make tea and noodles.

In addition, the center of gravity of the grip, the water holding capacity and the tip of the spout are other key points. Consider the amount of coffee you brew each time, as well as the difference in grip strength between boys and girls. The spout is not as thin as possible, it is the king to be thin and thick. Because in the 3-5 minute cooking process, the extraction rate can be controlled by adjusting the size of the water column. Usually we use fine flow in the front and coarse flow in the back to present the aroma and taste while avoiding the over-extracted astringent smell.

According to the common coffee filter cup on the market, it is mainly divided into ladder type and cone type. HARIO V60 series is better for beginners, which also has glass, ceramic, plastic, red copper, stainless steel and other materials to choose from. When practice makes perfect use of tapered filter cups, it is more appropriate to buy ladder-shaped designs such as Sanyo industrial ceramic filter cups. Because the design opening of the conical filter cup is larger, the phenomenon of stagnant water is relatively less, and the stagnant water usually causes the extraction time to be too long and produces astringent taste.

When brewing coffee, you must first know that the principle of extracting coffee is mainly divided into two methods: "trickling filter" and "soaking". The ladder-shaped and cone-shaped filter cups mentioned just now belong to the "trickling filter method", that is, the coffee powder is pure water and will constantly dissolve the substance in the coffee.

And the use of "immersion method" to do extraction, is we are familiar with the French filter kettle, and since the Danish brand bodum is the most famous. When soaking, all the hot water will blend with the coffee powder, and with the soaking time, the concentration will increase until it is saturated. So even if you don't use a hand pot, you can easily make a good cup of coffee. French filter kettle body is welcomed by European and American people and is a must in the kitchen.

At the same time, the combination of filtration and soaking is the "Clever Dripper" smart filter cup designed and made in Taiwan. Through the movable valve under the filter cup, it can switch between the two extraction methods at any time. In recent years, it has been adopted by many cafes, and even in the coffee brewing competition, some contestants have won the championship by virtue of smart filter cups.

The ice drop advanced wine flavor is the most attractive.

Different from ordinary hand-brewed coffee, ice drop coffee has a rich and thick taste through low temperature extraction for a long time, and can avoid the occurrence of astringent taste. At the same time, after the completion of the extraction, the flavor will be ripe after being placed for more than 2 to 3 days, which will bring a deep flavor like the aroma of wine, which is the most summer-relieving!

This is the "Driver designer ice drop coffee maker" authorized by Wang Xuan, who won the gold award for iF design in Germany, and is sold so well on various online shopping platforms and physical channels that it is out of stock. The whole is transparent and bright, and the extraction process is clearly visible, no matter in the coffee shop or at home, it is the most beautiful scenery!

It takes about 3-4 hours to make ice-drop coffee each time, and the flow rate is set at 1 drop every 1-2 seconds, because the speed will affect the thickness of the coffee and can be adjusted by itself. On the top of the coffee powder, a pill-shaped filter paper is usually placed to let the water droplets disperse evenly in order to avoid excessive extraction in the center. And this Driver designer ice drop coffee maker is equipped with a round metal filter to reduce the production of consumables. The knob that adjusts the flow rate of water droplets is protruding from the outer edge, so that the speed of dripping can be adjusted at any time in the extraction process without picking up the upper kettle, which is very convenient in operation.
