/ 1 warm cup

Get the cup ready and pour in some hot water cups first. The effect is that the brewed coffee will not cool down too fast. As the temperature drops, the flavor of the coffee will change all the time. If you cool down too fast, you will miss out on many different tastes.

/ 2 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 coffee bag

It is recommended to shake the earbag slightly, let the coffee powder fall, and then tear open the inner bag, in order to avoid the coffee powder scattered everywhere when it is torn open. After tearing off the seal on the earbag, hold the ear open, shake to smooth the coffee powder, and finally hang it to the edge of the cup.

/ 4 first water injection, pre-wetting

The amount of water injected for the first time should be just right to soak the coffee powder, too much or too little will affect the flavor; then we wait for about 20 seconds to let the coffee powder absorb the water completely. The thickness of the coffee can be adjusted by pre-wetting time, which can be extended to 40 seconds to get stronger coffee.

/ 5 second water injection

The second water injection can be poured to the full eight minutes of the filter paper, it is best to use a slender flow, wait until the flow down to the pre-wet height, you can continue to fill until 150 or 180ml. After the extraction, you don't have to wait for all the water in the filter paper to flow out, just throw it away. Like rich can add less water, like light can add more water, the proportion can be adjusted according to personal taste.

[Qianjie Coffee with ear bag Coffee beans recommended]

If Qianjie recommends two types of coffee suitable for hanging earbags, Qianjie Coffee will recommend Honduran Shirley coffee beans and Honduran litchi orchid coffee beans on the bean list. These are the two distinctive beans in the Qianjie coffee bean list. In order for everyone to drink it at ordinary times, Qianjie Coffee decided to make these two coffee beans into coffee earbags to facilitate everyone's daily drinking.

First, let's tell the story behind the beans. Honduran coffee beans are famous for their well-balanced taste, which can be used to mix coffee or brew it as a single product. Honduras alone has six major coffee producing areas.

Before choosing new beans on the shelves, Qianjie Coffee will conduct a large number of coffee production information surveys in the coffee producing areas of the country. By adjusting the baking curve of coffee beans many times, and using cup test, hand flushing and other links to ensure that the coffee beans are in line with the local coffee flavor, and the beans can achieve the best taste, the beans will be sold on the shelves in Qianjie.

The producing area of Honduran Shirley Coffee beans is located in Masaguara, a city in Intibu á province in southwestern Honduras, where the Moca Manor is the source of this alcoholic-flavored coffee.

Whisky barrel fermentation + delicate washing is used (whisky must be aged in oak barrels, and the oak barrels at the end of aging will retain a strong flavor of whisky).

The freshly picked coffee fruit is carefully washed, then put into a barrel ripe into sherry and fermented at a low temperature for 30-40 days (about 15-20 ℃), before drying in the shade.

The coffee beans fermented in Shirley buckets naturally have the flavor of sherry, forming an intoxicating and unique taste, which has been very popular in recent years.

[Yanshen read the brewing skills of coffee bags in front of the street coffee] 1 / control the amount of water!

The package is 10g hanging ear coffee bag, it is recommended to brew it with 150ml-180ml water.

* A good cup of coffee has an intoxicating flavor; if there is too much water, it will make the coffee tasteless and become a bad coffee. 2 / Control the water temperature!

The recommended temperature for brewing hanging-ear coffee bags is about 90 ℃.

* if you brew it directly with boiling water, it will cause the taste of this cup of coffee to become bitter.

3 / Control the process!

The proper "steaming" of hanging-ear coffee bags will make the coffee taste better.

In addition, Qianjie Coffee also encountered many guests will ask if they want to segment, in fact, a small flow of water can be injected directly into the 150ml, hanging ear coffee bag is simple and convenient, do not need too many requirements.

Ok, the method of flushing has been learned.

Next, Qianjie Coffee will give you a list of issues that you are sure to care about.

How many times can I make a coffee bag with hanging ears? ]

Many people think that earbags can be washed several times like tea bags until they have no taste, but in fact, this is not accurate. In fact, hanging earbags are the same as hand-brewed coffee, which can only be brewed once. Do not flush back the earbags that have been brewed. The substances in the remaining coffee grounds are all bad flavors.

Can the hanging ear coffee bag be brewed repeatedly? ]

Whether it is hand-brewed coffee or hanging-ear coffee bag, Qianjie believes that it is only suitable for one brew. When we mention "brewing coffee" every day, it means "extraction". Water is the solvent in the extraction process, through gouache contact, the flavor substances in the coffee will be dissolved into the water, at this time the water will become the coffee we drink.

According to the weight of coffee, only about 30% of the coffee can be extracted, and the remaining 70% is non-extractable fiber, so no matter how much the extraction is increased, only about 30% of the coffee can be extracted at most. Just as tea tastes lighter when it is brewed more times, so is coffee.

[matters needing attention in purchasing hanging-ear coffee bags]

As we all know, hand-brewed coffee grinds beans before brewing, and the hanging-ear coffee bags you buy have been ground into powder during the production stage. Therefore, the best taste period of hanging-ear coffee bags will be relatively short. Even if the hanging-ear coffee is freshly ground coffee powder, it will lead to the loss of flavor with the increase of storage time.

Therefore, when you buy hanging-ear coffee, you should pay attention to the production date. Although the shelf life of the hanging ear coffee bag is 6-18 months, it is only the shelf life of the coffee. The most fastidious thing about coffee is the best taste period for coffee, while the best taste period for hanging-ear coffee bags is usually two weeks. Qianjie suggests that when you buy hanging-ear coffee, the amount of coffee that meets the requirement of two weeks is ok.
