Did you know that the famous coffee that sells coffee beans has launched a filter cup? Because of its beautiful shape, many people think they must. Let's look at how to make and use KEY crystal filter cups.

Arrange what you need first.

Let's see how to extract the KEY crystal filter cup from here. First of all, about preparation.

Prepare for what?

Crystal filter cup

Paper filter (cone shape)

Coffee server: 2

Dripping kettle

Coffee powder

Thermometer (measuring the temperature of hot water)

Balance (called coffee powder)

How to prepare ①: start with preparation

Coffee is not extracted all of a sudden. We can't make delicious coffee unless we prepare all kinds of preparations.

Wipe off the moisture from the drip head

First, wipe off the water droplets.

There are irregular ribs in the filter cup. It plays a role in escaping the coffee powder and air. However, if it is partially wet, the gas escape state will be uneven in wet and dry places.

So, let's wipe the water clean. It seems that some people get the whole dripping head wet instead. In either case, it is important to avoid dampness.

Fold the seam of the filter and put it into the emitter

Next, break the paper filter. If it is a conical filter, have a seam on one side and fold it firmly.

The reason for breaking this filter is to make it suitable for emitters. Do not fold on the drip head, because part of the seam will float, so be careful.

In this way, first of all, there will be uneven in the process of coffee extraction, which will become a factor of failure. After folding the filter, let it spread out and place it on the drip head.

Pour in coffee powder and level

After setting the filter, we will make coffee powder. Generally speaking, coffee powder is usually ground into fine powder. When you put the coffee powder, shake the drip head, and cure the coffee powder. This makes it possible to prevent extraction inhomogeneity by homogenizing the surface and filling the powder (outgassing).

[Points! Let's adjust the temperature of the hot water.

Adjust the temperature of the hot water at the end of the preparation. Don't use boiling water when dripping. Because the boiling hot water is too hot, even the unnecessary taste is extracted.

It is said that the temperature when brewing coffee is 80-85 ℃ try to adjust between 70 °C and 95 °C according to your preference. It becomes stronger when it is hot and weakens at low temperature.

How to make ②: steaming

Coffee extraction begins with steaming. Please consider that this steamed coffee is ready for gymnastics to boil under cooking. Through steady steaming, you can have delicious coffee.

Pour a small amount of hot water from the center.

I will soon pass the hot water through it from there.

And stop the hot water to the overall damp level.

[Points! Note the amount of hot water

Steam is not an extract. In other words, if you pour hot water and coffee from the drip, it will be extracted instead of steamed. Therefore, for the purpose of steaming, you must inject hot water carefully.

Generally speaking, the amount of steaming hot water is.

The uniform wetting degree of the whole coffee powder

From a few drops of the head

Waiting time after steaming

"steaming" therefore, steaming time is necessary. In general, it is often considered before and after, however, it depends on the brewing style and good, and waiting for more than 1 minute for more than 30 seconds is also available in a variety of ways.

How to Brew ③: extracting Coffee

First of all, balance from the center

As for pouring hot water, first put the hot water in the middle of the steam.

From there we will gradually expand the scope of pouring.

[Points! Pay attention to the hot water.

If you pour hot water for a while, there is foam coming out. This is a mark of hot water pouring. In other words, if the bubble draws a beautiful circle, it proves that the hot water is good. On the contrary, if it is a biased circle, how to inject hot water is biased.

Let's not pour on the cup wall.

Be careful not to pour hot water on the edge (near the boundary between the coffee powder and the filter).

Why not? This is because it is not extracted with hot water poured on the rims. At this edge, the coffee powder layer is very thin (even if not), so even if you pour hot water, it will not have enough coffee flavor. At the extreme, this means that only diluted, unpleasant coffee is extracted. So, let's not pour on the hoop.

If you reach the cup for a few minutes, delete it immediately

Then, when the number of cups is reached, transfer it to another container and leave hot water in the emitter. This completes the extraction.

After extraction.?

Although the coffee extraction itself has ended the previous step, let's take a look at a little bit after the extraction. Be careful, some things will get better.

Let's see how it happened.

Please look outside where the rest of the water has fallen. One thing I want to check this time is the "empty shape". If the coffee powder is dispersed along the cone in a well-balanced manner, it is proved that the hot water is poured in a balanced manner.

On the other hand, if there is a deviation (such as the thick and thin parts of the powder, etc.), it tends to be dumped.

How to throw away food

Is it an empty way after extraction, and do you just lift and discard the paper? I also talked about some articles about other drips, but this is dangerous because the paper is broken and the coffee powder may be scattered.

Lift the drip like an image, turn it over the trash can, and gently click on the drip. Well, it's easy to get rid of it.

Delicious brewing depends on people.

I want to tell you one last thing, that is, I can't say that it tastes good only by other people's excuses.

That's why it's "everyone". The taste you like depends on the person. Moreover, there are fundamental differences in personal habits, personality, muscle attachment and other fundamental differences.

So, in fact, it is the most important drive to explore "a way to make your own brewing and delicious brewing".
