Yasukivo wooden filter cup using Yamanaka-shikki lacquer exquisite handmade, is a relatively rare filter cup material.

YASUKIYO WOODEN DRIPPER-BROWN

Yamanaka-shikki lacquer ware originated in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. The manufacturing technology of Ishikawa lacquer ware can be traced back to the 18th century. Each piece is carved by skilled craftsmen one by one.

Craftsmen use ancient Tategidori technology to cut wood horizontally rather than vertically to create a durable and very light wooden filter cup.

Each piece of wood is cut horizontally along the grain, resulting in greater durability, and the horizontal ribs slow the rate of entry and allow longer contact time between water and powder.

Stunning weft rib lines

Back: the pore diameter of the launching channel is relatively large.

There are more positions protruding from the lower end of the filter paper.

This filter cup is made of natural wood, which is very different from the resin or ceramic, glass and other materials we use in daily life.

Usually the filter cup made of resin did not obviously interfere with the taste of coffee, but the filter cup made of this material had a special aroma from the very beginning. During this period, I rinsed it with hot water many times. Later, I simply gave up the idea that the taste could be removed with water.

The filter paper used with this filter cup is the KONO bleached filter paper I am used to, which is the one with less pulp flavor, and there is no problem with the suitability of this filter cup.

The process of water injection is divided into three stages: steaming, secondary water injection and three times water injection:

Steaming aroma this filter cup is more obvious than HarioV60.

There is little difference in the flow velocity of secondary water injection.

The wooden filter cup is obviously very slow during three times of water injection.

Contrast taste

I used a bean treated with black honey from Shumawa Manor in Costa Rica.

Natural wood filter cup: first of all, the aroma has a Zen wood flavor that suppresses the aroma of coffee, and there is a varnish wood polish at the entrance, which tastes relatively thin. Although so many strange fragrances are added, the coffee flavor is still delicate and clear, while the long end is a little bitter.

HarioV60: clean, rich, high sweetness

The filter cup of this tapered weft rib design is more stable than the spiral texture design, and the place where the concave groove will be will be able to absorb and precipitate fine powder. The horizontal ribs make the launching speed slow, let the contact time between water and powder be long, and spend most of the time in the soaking state, which is more suitable for beans with medium and deep baking degree.

The wooden filter cup is stronger than plastic, lighter than ceramic, beautiful in appearance, beautiful in appearance, comfortable in handle and light in quality. However, it is very disturbing to the taste of the beans that are boiled and baked, but since it is made in Nissan, it is understandable.
