Last Updated: 2024/11/08, Professional coffee knowledge exchange more coffee bean information please follow the coffee workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style) to learn syphon (siphon coffee, stopper) for more than ten years, thinking that learning syphon is really a bitter time (with a lot of bitter coffee). Syphon is easy to learn but difficult to refine, the extraction rate is high, it is easy to boil and over-extract, and the stopping point is difficult to grasp, which is the most important.

It has been more than ten years since I learned syphon (siphon coffee, cork pot). It was a bitter day to think of syphon (with a lot of bitter coffee).

Syphon is easy to learn and difficult to refine, the extraction rate is high, it is easy to boil and explode, and the ceasefire point is not easy to grasp. This is the most important problem, which also causes many people to learn syphon instead of hand flushing (hand flushing is just the opposite, easy to extract insufficient)

However, if the high extraction rate of syphon can be mastered properly, it is possible to "boil" a lot of attractive flavors in coffee, so don't give up syphon.

Syphon basic teaching a lot, but for people who have been able to cook not much value, today's offer is brewing checklist, that is, when the brewed coffee has the following conditions, as a reference for adjustment, gradually to the direction of good taste, will soon have its own gold variable.

The convention is to send a tutorial video of siphon coffee:

It is strongly recommended to record your variables first, and then adjust them one by one, otherwise you will forget them, for example:

Grindability: Pegasus 3.5

Powder water ratio: 1:15

Brewing time: 30 seconds after stirring, 30 seconds after stirring, stop stirring, wrap towel

Mixing method: gentle stirring/violent stirring

Suggestions on Adjustment of Siphon Pot's Brewing Parameters

The result of brewing:

1. Mixed taste (throat jam, throat contraction)

2. bitter taste

3. burnt smell

4. too thick

5. Water smell (the feeling of oil and water separation)

6. too light

7. insufficient aroma

8. insufficient sweetness

9. Body thickness thin

10. Body is too strong.

11. stuffy taste

12. The layers are not clear, mixed

13. Single flavor, dull

14. strange smell

Please refer to the following adjustments

The following is the suggested order of adjustment when assuming a single situation occurs. If multiple items occur together, they need to be adjusted item by item. Do not adjust too many parts at once, otherwise golden variables cannot be induced.

1. Mixed taste (throat stuck, throat contracted)

√ Avoid volcanic eruptions (large bubbles boiling upward)

√ Sieve fine powder

√ Gentle stirring force/Less stirring cycles/Less stirring times

2. bitter taste

√ Temperature drops below 93 ° C: reduce fire/switch to alcohol lamp/shift fire method

√ Gentle stirring force/Less stirring cycles/Less stirring times

√ 5 seconds shorter

√ Grinding degree coarse adjustment

3. burnt smell

√ Temperature drops below 93 ° C: reduce fire/switch to alcohol lamp/shift fire method

√ Coffee beans are over-roasted (change beans)

4. too thick

√ Powder/water ratio reduced (more water recommended)

5. Water smell (the feeling of oil and water separation)

√ Coffee powder is not sufficiently soaked by stirring

√ Coffee beans are not fresh (change beans)

√ Uneven grinding degree (check whether the grinding particles are normal)

6. too light

√ Increase in powder-water ratio (decrease in recommended water volume)

7. insufficient aroma

√ Increase the number of times of powder extraction

√ Temperature increase

√ Use filter cloth and wet towel instead

8. insufficient sweetness

√ Increase cooking time by 10-20 seconds

√ Powder/water ratio reduced (more powder recommended)

√ Grind fine adjustment

9. Body thickness thin

√ Increase the ratio of powder to water

√ Grind fine adjustment

√ Change to filter cloth

10. Body is too strong.

√ Powder-water ratio lowered

√ Grinding degree coarse adjustment

11. stuffy taste

√ Coffee powder is not sufficiently soaked by stirring

√ Increase cooking time by 10 seconds

12. The layers are not clear and the taste is mixed.

√ Gentle stirring force/Less stirring cycles/Less stirring times

√ Grinding degree coarse adjustment

√ Uneven grinding degree (check whether the grinding particles are normal)

13. dull, dull flavor

√ Increase cooking time by 10 seconds

√ Add one powder stirring in the middle

14. strange smell

√ Filter cloth needs to be changed

√ Beans are not fresh (change beans)

√ Stirring rod moldy

Siphon pot status is still quite a lot, but step by step for the situation to adjust, carefully take notes, about 1 pound of beans can be corrected to 80%, continuous improvement accumulated experience, even if the new beans can also immediately catch the gold variable.
