How smart is Smart Cup? How to use this smart cup?

Smart filter cup use teaching

Hand-brewed coffee seems simple, in fact, there are many technical details to master, and there are too many equipment to prepare. Different variables in the hand-brewed process may cause different tastes. For a coffee beginner, it is difficult to formulate his favorite taste after discovering that all variables (temperature/powder/water ratio/time) are the same, and the next time he makes it, the taste may not be the same.

So today I'm going to teach you a simple device that can brew a stable flavor--a smart filter cup.

The contents are simple, with only three items: chassis/smart filter cup

In fact, all you need is a smart filter cup, coffee powder, filter paper, hot water, and a cup.

First, grind the beans to 4-4.5 degrees. The small series uses a small Pegasus bean grinder.

This Qian Xiang good let a person infatuate ah, like love missed no longer, so must ruthlessly suck on a big mouthful.

Prepare hot water.

The recommended powder-water ratio is: a cup of coffee powder is 12g vs. 200cc of water, and the water is about 175cc, so the powder-water ratio is about 1: 16.5, and the concentration can be adjusted according to personal preference. It is recommended to be between 1:15 and 1:18.

This eliminates the need for a thermometer and for the water to cool. Isn't that smart?

Fold the bottom slightly, this will stabilize the filter paper in the cup.

If you don't like the smell of filter paper, you can wash the filter paper with hot water first (please prepare extra).

First injection

Water temperature 90-95 degrees, the coffee powder are soaked to the principle, note that do not need to be too full.

When done, let him soak for about 1 minute.

Second water injection

After one minute, pour the pre-measured amount of hot water into the smart filter cup.

Cover to keep warm.

Soak for about 2.5 minutes at this stage.

When the time is up, remove the top lid and draw the dam back and forth on the surface twice (do not stir the coffee powder below).

Put the smart filter cup on top of the cup, and the strong coffee will flow down.

Add water +24g coffee powder, about 350cc of water.

When the water drops out, the mellow coffee is finished!

The biggest advantage of using a smart filter cup is that once you get your favorite ratio: water powder ratio, as long as the temperature is not too high or too low (the first water injection is between 90-95 degrees), the taste will be very stable.
