When it comes to hanging-ear coffee, coffee fans who have never come into contact with it must feel that it is like a tea bag. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. How to make hanging-ear coffee correctly? then let's talk about hanging-ear coffee in Qianjie.

The Origin of hanging ear Coffee

Hanging-ear coffee bag, also known as filter-hanging coffee carry-on bag, is evolved from filter paper hand-brewed coffee, which mainly provides a convenient choice for people who like to drink high-quality coffee.

According to Qianjie, it is understood that the origin of hanging-ear coffee was in 2001, when Japan's UCC Kojima Coffee invented the hanging-ear-bag coffee and registered a patent, which was then introduced to the market. In Japanese, it is called "a cup of extracted coffee". This is because its principle is to put the coffee powder in a filter bag of non-woven cloth or cotton paper, with two pieces of paper splint on the outside, which can be hung on a narrow cup. After brewing, you can drink fragrant black coffee directly.

And the two pieces of paper that stand at the mouth of the cup like "ears" is the origin of the name "hanging earbags".

Because it is easy to operate and portable, the brewed coffee tastes much stronger than traditional instant coffee. Today, earbag coffee has also occupied 15% of the market share of ordinary coffee in Japan.

The advantages of hanging-ear coffee

With the improvement of living standards, many working party coffee fans began to abandon instant coffee and embrace hanging-ear coffee, because hanging-ear coffee is as convenient as instant coffee, and the flavor is better, and there are more choices. Like the traditional instant coffee is Robusta coffee beans, but now the hanging ear coffee in front of the street is more likely to use Arabica coffee beans like boutique coffee. Therefore, hanging-ear coffee has also become the best choice for the most portable coffee.

The difference between Arabica and Robusta

The article before Qianjie also explained in detail the different uses of Arabica and Robusta coffee beans. For example, Arabica coffee beans are of the highest quality among coffee beans, so they are widely cultivated. So far, it accounts for 75% of the world's total coffee bean production, while Robusta beans account for 20% of the world's total coffee bean production. Robusta coffee beans are used to make instant coffee because it contains twice as much caffeine as Arabica coffee beans, and its chlorogenic acid is higher than Arabica coffee beans, which makes Robusta coffee beans more bitter than Arabica beans, so it is not suitable to make fine coffee alone.

Selection and precautions of hanging-ear Coffee

Hanging-ear coffee is actually a portable version of boutique coffee, it is to put the ground coffee bean powder into the powder bag, saving coffee fans the step of grinding their own coffee grinder, convenient and economical. For example, the Qianjie hanging ear Coffee series has a variety of regional flavor coffee beans to choose from, such as Yega Xuefei, Brazil, Kenya, Flower Butterfly, Mantenin, Honduras Shirley and so on. Of course, there are other types of coffee beans. If guests want to make hanging-ear coffee, Qianjie will also make it according to the demand. For example, a guest drank a gold manning in the store a few days ago and felt satisfied with the taste, but he didn't bother to go home to grind the powder. Qianjie will be made to hang ears for guests on the spot. Therefore, when coffee fans choose hanging-ear coffee, they can choose according to their usual personal preferences.

Of course, because coffee beans are ground and sold on the spot, the quality of hanging-ear coffee must be very good, but it is also doomed that its best taste period will be shortened by half as compared with fine coffee beans, because the aroma of coffee beans will run away after grinding. This is a common problem of all powdered coffee, so Qianjie suggests that hanging-ear coffee should be finished in two weeks after buying, which is also the best taste period for all hanging-ear coffee.

Brewing methods and points for attention of hanging-ear Coffee

Qianjie Qianwen also mentioned that coffee fans who have not come into contact with hanging-ear coffee may think that hanging-ear coffee can just be put into a cup and soaked in hot water like a tea bag. In fact, this is wrong. If coffee fans who have tasted coffee in the front street shop all know that the extraction of hand-brewed coffee is completed within two minutes, of course, the brewing bag can not be brewed for too long, otherwise it will pass the extract and make the coffee very bitter. Affect the flavor. What is the correct method of brewing? The correct brewing method of hanging-ear coffee

1. Warm cup

When you are ready to brew the cup of hanging-ear coffee, first pour in some warm cups of hot water. The effect is that the brewed coffee will not cool down too fast, because as the temperature drops, the coffee will produce a different flavor, that is, a hierarchical sense of flavor, so if you cool down too fast, you will miss many different tastes.

two。 Water temperature

The temperature of the brewed water is very important. It is recommended that the temperature be between 85 and 90 degrees. If the brewed coffee is too bitter, try to lower the water temperature. On the contrary, if it is too light or too astringent, it can increase the water temperature, but the range should still be between 85 and 90 degrees.

3. Hang up the back edge

First shake the earbag slightly to let the coffee powder fall to avoid the coffee powder being scattered when it is torn open, then pour out the hot water from the cup, tear open the seal on the earbag, extend the paper ears on both sides, and shake so that the coffee powder is smooth, and finally hang to the edge of the cup.

4. Pre-wet hanging ear coffee bag

The first time you inject water, you should inject just the right amount of soaked coffee powder, too much or too little will affect the flavor, and then wait 20 seconds for the coffee powder to fully absorb water. The thickness of the coffee can be adjusted by pre-wetting time, which can be extended to 40 seconds to get stronger coffee.

5. Water injection

The second injection of water can be poured to the filter paper eight full, it is best to use a slender flow, wait until the flow down to the pre-wet height, you can continue to fill water to the full, until quenching out of 150 to 180cc so far, once quenching is finished, do not need to wait for all the water in the filter paper to flow out, just throw it away.

The above is the correct brewing method of hanging-ear coffee, then let's talk about the precautions of brewing coffee in the front street.

1. Do not repeat brewing

Repeated brewing can only get bad and harmful coffee.

2. Do not let the coffee powder continue to soak in the cup after flushing.

Many people will think that the longer the coffee is soaked, the stronger the coffee will be. In fact, this is true, but during soaking, the more caffeine will be released, and the problem of over-quenching will occur. Excessive quenching will release the bitterness, astringency and bad smell in the coffee.

This is also the front street to deal with coffee beans, will grind different thickness of coffee, because the thicker the particles of coffee, the smaller the surface area, can withstand a long time of brewing.

3. Throw the earbag directly into the cup

As mentioned in the previous street article, it is wrong to use an earbag as a tea bag. Although it is very convenient, before the hot water touches the coffee powder, the temperature has dropped a lot, which will make the coffee not quenched enough, thus affecting the flavor of the coffee.

These are the notes on the use of hanging-ear coffee in Qianjie. Qianjie also hopes that this article can help coffee fans who want to make hanging-ear coffee.
