How to make siphon coffee at home? How was the siphon pot invented? How do you do that?

It is called Syphon (Siphon) coffee or

Chinese can be the homonym of English "Saifeng Coffee".

Or English paraphrase "siphon coffee" or "vacuum coffee"

In fact, there is still a gap between the principle of siphon coffee and the real siphon.

Siphon is a principle of hydrodynamics.

It is defined as the flow of the water extension pipe at the height by gravity to above the horizontal plane.

And then released below the water level.

What siphon coffee touches is actually closer to the vacuum principle.

Evaporate the water into steam by heating the kettle

Squeeze the hot water into the pot and touch the coffee

Then lower the temperature of the pot to reduce the volume of water vapor.

The state of causing a vacuum in the lower pot.

Draw the coffee liquid from the upper pot to the lower pot by the force of vacuum

In the 19th century, many amateur scientists began to play with some principles of physical dynamics.

For example, vacuum principle, steam principle, fluid mechanics and so on.

At the same time, the glass burning technology of carbon furnace is also developing.

These conditions add up to give rise to a lot of interesting

The earliest siphon pot was used in Germany.

But the earliest patents were registered in France.

(it's another quarreling who comes first and who comes next. )

It soon became popular in Europe.

Anyway, the siphon pot we see most often

It was later developed and improved by a Ms. Vassieux in Lyon, France, in 1841.

At that time, the shape of the upper and lower balls was so funny.

It was also called French ballon (French balloon) for a time.

Unlike percolator siphon coffee maker, it is made of transparent glass.

It increases the fun and beauty of making coffee.

Finally let the coffee pot get on the table and move out of the kitchen into the dining room.

Since then, the decoration on the coffee pot has become more and more exquisite.

In those days, glass was not as strong as it is now, and it was quite fragile.

The pressure caused by its siphon principle is quite large.

If empty burning may cause a big explosion in the coffee pot.

So making coffee is a matter of life and death.

Of course, it is impossible for people to let this situation last forever.

To invent a clever coffee pot so that the source of fire can go out automatically at the right time.

That's how the design of the coffee pot appeared.

There is a kind of toilet design that is so funny that it has to be put up.

But it is a pity that this toilet coffee pot has been eliminated by the times.

The taste of the public is so elusive (the boss's undersea needle)

The double-ball coffee maker quickly went out of fashion in France (out of fashion~ hold won't stop)

The Paris fashion world began to play.

Also known as Viennese Siphon or Gabet or

This can really be called the epoch-making invention of iPhone in the coffee pot world at that time. It was brilliant.

It's almost just coffee and water, plus a little fire, to brush your teeth and wash your face.

When you come back and turn on the faucet, you can have a cup of mellow coffee. It's too powerful.

Almost at the same time, a naval engineer in Scotland

Also invented a coffee maker that looks a lot like Balancing Siphon

It's called siphon coffee.

This kind of pot is not that smart and has no automatic flameout device.

The method used is a little different.

There is nothing earth-shaking about this pot

It's just that the British love their invention so much that they devote themselves to its decoration.

Take it for granted that it will be handed down to later generations to sell a lot of money.

With the change of times

The heat source of the siphon pot also evolved.

From alcohol lamps to gas lamps and electric heating.

Of course, the most beautiful and dazzling thing is the halogen lamp stove.

The coffee is beautiful in the warm yellow and orange light, and the sister who makes coffee is also so beautiful.
