Kalita Cake Cup Learn more about the unique role of wavy filter paper Cake Cup How to hand punch

Wave filter paper is a popular filter cup in the third wave craze. As a filter cup, from a quite unique shape, many people think, "Why is this so?"

So I want to see the filter paper this time.

What are the characteristics of the ripples?

Literally "wavy" filter paper

The biggest feature of this emitter is the wave shape of the filter, anyway.

When you look at the filter cup of the picture, won't you notice? In fact, this filter cup, a groove called "rib", will not be engraved. So the role of the ribs is the wave shape of the filter paper.

Because of this shape, there is an image-like gap between the filter cup and the filter paper, which acts as a rib. By the way, this is not the only advantage of wave shape.

The contact area with the filter cup is small

A common malfunction of the filter cup is that the filter overflows hot water, which is drawn from the side without passing through the coffee powder.

However, the filter paper does not have a small amount of ground contact side, but hot water touches the bottom of the filter cup through coffee powder. Therefore, even if there is hot water hanging on the filter paper, there is little risk of failure.

Fast, balanced hot water

This filter cup, like the other emitter of Carita, has three holes, but the arrangement of holes is different. The three common drives of the Carita are arranged together, but the emitter is arranged in a triangle. Therefore, the deviation of hot water is small and it is discharged in a good balance.

How to use a wavy filter cup

Prepare for what?

Special filter cup

Waveform filter paper

Sharing pot

Waste kettle: any heat-resistant container such as a cup

Hot water

Coffee powder (usually 10 grams per person)

In addition, it is more convenient to have scales and thermometers.

Set up filter and coffee powder

First, put the filter paper in the filter cup.

Next, put the coffee powder into the filter.

Now let's look at the surface. By flattening coffee powder, it can not only prevent uneven extraction, but also reduce the air and improve the surrounding environment of hot water. Please shake the filter cup as gently as possible.

Location of the tool tool

Extract if ready! Let's check the position of the tool.

For example, if you hold a kettle in your right hand, other movements during the extraction process will inevitably be left-handed. For this reason, you can smoothly place the handle and drip on the opposite side of the kettle.

Stuffy steam

Although it is steaming, the surface is round and basically feels the same as a conical filter cup.

First, put the hot water in the center of the circle.

Then draw a circle around the center and pour in hot water

Stop the hot water to the full wet level.

The common question here is "how long does it steam?"

To be honest, the answer is for this person.

Extraction

In order to extract, we will first release hot water from the center.

Then white bubbles are formed where the hot water is injected. I will draw a circle and pour foam at the same time.

It is recommended that the circle of the white foam be spread to see if it is in contact with the filter.

This is an iron rule that does not pour hot water into the edge of coffee powder, and filters usually leak paper. Because waves have a special shape, it's not a problem even if they hang on the edge, but it's not a good thing to remember.

One thing I want to keep in mind is to draw a beautiful circle. The fact that this circle is beautiful is one of the evidence that it is evenly poured. If it is a twisted circle, the brown part is not covered by hot water and is not flat.

When the amount to be extracted is reached, the remaining hot water in the drip is moved to the empty receiving position. Let's not let it fall into the sharing pot, because it has been extracted.

Let's focus on how to throw it away.

Although sometimes people lift and throw away the filter when throwing away the residue, this is very dangerous. Because the filter contains moisture, it is easy to crack. For this reason, it may break and distribute coffee powder, which can cause burns.

This is a way to throw away and extract the residue, but please take it to the dustbin with the filter cup. Then, when you tap the edge of the filter cup, the filter paper will immediately fall off.
