What is the Philharmonic pressure and how to use it?

Professional coffee knowledge exchange more coffee bean information please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style)

AeroPress was officially released by AEROBIE in 2005 and invented by Alan Adler, a lecturer in mechanical engineering at Stanford University. In addition to ALP, Alan Adler also has more than 40 patents.

The structure of the Philharmonic pressure is very simple, it is similar to a syringe. Its filter cartridge and pressure rod are made of polyester PET. The filter cover, filter paper holder, mixing rod and funnel are polypropylene. The sealing rubber plug on the pressure bar is a thermoplastic elastomer. All materials are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and can be used in direct food contact.

It is precisely because of the use of this material, it avoids the disadvantage of fragile and bulky glass material, and makes the Philharmonic pressure easier to carry and save.

If the Smart Cup is an upgraded version of the portable easy to master filter cup, then the Philharmonic pressure is the upgraded version of the portable easy to master filter pot.

On the premise of the filter pressure of the French pressure pot, it adds the filter paper commonly used in the follicular coffee to make the coffee taste cleaner and smooth. At the same time, pressure can be applied to make the extraction faster and improve the extraction efficiency. The coffee brewed by Philadelphia can have the richness of espresso, the purity of brewed coffee, and the simplicity of the French kettle. If the Smart Cup is an upgraded version of the portable easy to master filter cup, then the Philharmonic pressure is the upgraded version of the portable easy to master filter pot.

The playing method of Philharmonic pressure is very changeable, and the maker can make a cup of coffee according to the characteristics of coffee beans by changing the degree of grinding, the ratio of water to powder and the strength of pressing. Both ordinary home users and coffee lovers can quickly master the skills of making, and it is easy to produce a good cup of coffee. Nowadays, professional baristas in many coffee shops, because their products are stable and efficient, will also use Philharmonic pressure as the main instrument for coffee production.

Below we give a simple and stable production advice to teach you to use the Philharmonic to produce a stable and delicious cup of coffee.

1. We use 15g coffee powder, and the grinding degree is slightly finer than that of hand pulping. The water temperature is 8689 ℃ and 210g water is added at one time to ensure that all coffee powder is fully soaked. The time starts from the time of water injection, and the soaking time is 1 minute and 30 seconds.

two。 Waiting for soaking time, we put the Philharmonic filter paper into the filter cover to wet, or choose to use the gold filter produced by XCAFFE, clean it and put it into the filter cover. When the soaking time is up, tighten the filter cover to prepare for lower pressure extraction.

The use of filter paper can highlight the clean and refreshing taste of coffee, while the coffee alcohol extracted with gold filter is thicker and sweeter, easy to clean and can be reused. You can choose according to your different production needs.

3. Press the Philharmonic on the hand rack and press it down slowly until you hear the sound of air being pressed out of the filter. After the extraction, take off the filter cover, push out the pressed powder, and the whole production process will be over, isn't it very simple?

The hand-punching frame can not only meet the production of conventional filter cup hand-punching, but also can be used as the extraction display frame of Philharmonic pressure.

4. The production is finished, you can enjoy it! Philharmonic pressure in addition to the production of simple and fast, its cleaning and maintenance is also very simple, after use only need a simple rinse.

The material is not only easy to damage, but also small and light, and it is a good choice for making coffee at home, in the office, on the road, in coffee shops and even outdoors.

Compared with hand-made extraction, using Philharmonic pressure to make coffee seems more casual and changeable. As long as you are big enough to use your imagination and creativity, you can make a good cup of coffee by controlling pressure, water-powder ratio, grinding degree, etc., and try a variety of different solutions.

It is precisely because of the changeable playing method, strong maneuverability and a wide range of applications. The World Philharmonic Competition WAC (World Aeropress Champion) has been held since 2008. The World Philharmonic Competition was launched by Tim Varney and Tim Wendelboe in Oslo, Norway, and was also tried in China in 2013.
