I heard that hand brewed coffee made with flannel tastes especially good!

1 What is flannel?

Flannel is a foreign word for soft, velvety (cotton) wool woven from carded (cotton) wool yarn. Created in Wales, England in the 18th century. Domestic generally refers to mixed color carded (cotton) wool yarn woven with a clip style of woolen (cotton) wool fabric, which has a layer of plump fine and clean pile cover, not exposed weave, soft and smooth feel, slightly thinner than Melden.

This is the flannel filter you use on coffee.

2 Why use flannel?

There is a saying that flannel can extract all the characteristics of coffee and combine them perfectly. Generally speaking, filter paper and flannel have so much in common that they are roughly equivalent in use. Compared with filter paper, flannel mesh is larger, soft texture, no pulp taste, because the permeability is better, so it can retain more oil and other substances in the coffee liquid. In summary, flannel extract coffee is more "mellow" and more mellow.

3. Make hand-brewed coffee with flannel

When using flannel for the first time, rinse it with hot water or brush it. Then add coffee powder or tea residue soaked in boiling water for 10 minutes, remove the smell of cloth, and then wash with water. Remember not to use soap or soap powder at this time, because their smell will not come off. Filter cloth should be cleaned well with water after use. Also do not use soap or direct drying, otherwise it will produce odor, put into the refrigerator when the best can be placed in an airtight container to avoid contamination with the taste of other foods. When in use, brew with warm boiled water, and then fully wrung out before use

1. Prepare 20g coffee beans, grind them and pour them into flannel filters.

2. The water injection temperature is 80 degrees Celsius. The water in the hand-made pot is 7 minutes full. Pour hot water on the coffee powder in the center. Although the amount of water is very small, the coffee powder will absorb the hot water and expand and penetrate into the whole. Let it stew for 60 seconds (the first water injection).

The amount of steam is 1-1.5 times that of coffee powder

3, for the second time water injection, draw a circle of water injection, from inside to outside, from outside to inside, until the extraction of about 300G coffee solution, can be divided into 2-5 times of water injection, according to the amount of coffee powder and water injection, adjust.

If the amount of brewing is not enough, you can fill the water for the fifth time. When the coffee bubble is still floating, the filter should be removed. The standard brewing time is about 3 minutes. As long as a certain water injection time and distance are maintained, the stable taste can be brewed. If the coffee powder is in a state of left and right symmetry in the center, it means that the brewing is very good.

4. Precautions

About flannel filter (pile side as the outside) If you make the fuzz side as the inside, the grease and fine powder of coffee will stick to it. Flannel mesh will plug quickly, so for a smooth brew, use the fluffy side as the outside.

Reasons for punching

1. If the flannel filter is installed directly on the coffee pot, the coffee will flow out of the contact surface between the filter and the pot body.

2. The lower end of the flannel filter will soak in the filtered coffee, which is like boiled coffee. Whether bitter or sour coffee beans, flannel filters can easily punch out the right flavor. Although it's hard to get a consistent flavor every time, the essence of it is to be able to brew your own flavor.

Note:

1, the water temperature is too high foam will become larger If the water temperature is higher than 80 degrees Celsius, there will be no fine bubbles, but large bubbles doped with them, if the water temperature is too low, it will not bubble each time the water injection time should be within 10 seconds, if the temperature in the bag is too high, it will be cooked together.

2, do not pour water at the edge of the 15--20mm, in the water until the end can not be washed down with the cloth contact "coffee wall". Otherwise, it will not cook evenly.

3, flannel cleaning and preservation is very important, each time after use to quickly clean, and then flannel for water in the refrigerator to save, or put in the air circulation place to dry, improper preservation may affect the next brewing.

If you are tired of using filter paper, then you can try the wrong hand medium, maybe it can bring you a different coffee experience ~!! Coffee is fun!!
