Flannel filter hand brewed coffee (Nel drip) tastes mellow, thick and incredibly sweet, reminiscent of sweet wine. It is not easy to brew good coffee in this way. Too fast water injection, too high water temperature, and immature techniques will degrade the flavor of coffee.

Some people say that making a good flannel filter requires the attention of a novelist, the dexterity of a surgeon, and the ability of a performer to improvise, which shows its delicacy and complexity.

Flannel filter cloth can carefully and slowly extract the delicious ingredients of coffee beans. The coffee filtered has a round and deep taste, which is the greatest charm of flannel filter cloth. Therefore, when using it to filter coffee, please face every step carefully and remember to be a little emotional.

"the finishing and reception of flannel filter cloth is very troublesome, and it takes a long time to filter, so most people stay away from it, but it has become one of its unique charm. "

Because the pores of flannel are larger than filter paper, it can retain some of the oil esters of coffee, unlike filter paper, which usually filters out all the oil esters, so the coffee made with flannel is more mellow and smoother than filter paper. I went to a coffee shop in Japan and found that many professional coffee shops in Japan use flannel for hand flushing, so I have more experience when using filter paper at home. You can advance to using French blue velvet to make hand-made coffee.

The two-stage water cut-off method uses an electronic scale, a thermometer, and a code table to control the proportion of extracted powder water, hot water temperature and extraction time at a fixed parameter each time, so that the flavor of coffee extracted can be close to the same. But the average family may not have an electronic scale, so the flannel hand flushing method is based on the visual capacity of the coffee to determine the time to stop water injection.

Using electronic scales, the ratio of powder to water is calculated by the weight of hot water injected into the filter cup (divide the weight of coffee powder by 7% 9%, such as 18g/7.5%=240g, which absorbs about 2 g of water per g of powder), but if there is no electronic scale, you can use the c. C. number flowing into the next pot to control the ratio of powder to water (per gram of powder, extract 10-12c.c coffee, for example, 30 grams of powder). Extract 300-360c.c of coffee)

Coffee made with flannel filter cloth is not too strong, so it is recommended to use medium and heavy roasted coffee beans.
