This bright, lovely and comfortable corner belongs to the second coffee shop visited by Shanghai: Mingqian Coffee College.

Originally in the small corner of uncle no name, now I moved to the new location where I used to walk for about 3 minutes.

The layout of the whole store is no joke, it is definitely not as simple as when you see this leisurely corner.

Shanghai Cafe

Mingqian Coffee is a time-honored coffee shop that invested in the boutique coffee industry very early in Shanghai, and it is very famous.

And in recent years, the layout has been extended from baking and cup production to agents of various artifacts, coffee training and coffee certification (SCAA, SCAE, Q-grader).

It is not too much to say that it occupies a large part of the coffee professional field in Shanghai.

So this brand new rectangular suspended cafe consists of three parts: the guest area, the coffee college and the equipment room.

Of course, there is a large bakery, but you can't see it here.

Let's take a look at the artifact, Spirit of Kees Van Der Westen.

This Dutch Italian machine, which is related to La Marzocco, was designed by its founder Kees.

Streamlined metal shell basic sports car grade, of course, the price is also sports car grade, very cool and expensive

Spirit's sister phones also include speedster, mirage and mirage Idrocompresso (bar version).

None of the above four sets have ever been played, so they can only be used as artifacts to worship.

By the way, take a look at the data, and sure enough, each one is equipped with a monster level.

(the information is not attached, and professional data are meaningless for ordinary people.)

However, it is not frightening. After all, it is more important to master monsters than to test the skill of bar players.

And this is also the common fault of visiting many cafes in Shanghai this time.

There are so many artifacts, God-man... That's not necessarily true.

And Mingqian Coffee College is the general agent of Kees in the mainland.

Judging from the crazy situation of artifacts in the mainland, the coffee machine sold by Mingqian should be sold to death in the future.

This can be regarded as the vision and ambition of Mingqian Coffee, which is stuck in a good position.

The bean grinder is no joke, of course.

Fiorenzato Italian mill, but I'm sorry I can't see the model, the back all look the same.

Mythos One of Nuova Simonelli, which was previously specified by WBC.

Mahlk ö nig's EK 43 shows that 2016 of WBC will be replaced by Mahlk ö nig K30 Vario.

Anyway, it's another show-the whole row of acaia seems to cost only 200. (bitter)

Coffee college

This is Mingqian Coffee College. Of course, what's going on inside? I didn't overhear it.

But SCAA, SCAE and Q-grader were all introduced to Shanghai, a city that is crazy about boutique coffee.

I'm afraid many new cafes in the future will be Mingqian's apprentice grandchildren.

You can practice directly at the bar outside! It also shows that Mingqian's coffee tentacles are amazing.

The other classroom opposite is full of equipment.

It has been said that the equipment is tired. Master, just memorize the model by yourself.

If you don't know much, just count the number and know that Mingqian Coffee College has put all kinds of equipment into the classroom.

Let the students play casually, happily and crazily.

Hidden in the leisurely atmosphere is Mingqian Coffee's ambition for the future boutique coffee industry.

But this is a matter for the industry, so let's concentrate on our coffee.

The most important thing about coffee is always: is it good or not?

Next, let's try Mingqian coffee.

Before drinking the artifact coffee, you still have to complain.

Mingqian has such a big space, but there is no bar chair!

For ordinary people, fine coffee needs to learn and communicate.

And the bar should be the best place for cafes to communicate with customers.

No bar chairs will make shy guests only dare to hide and drink coffee.

This is really imperfect for Mingqian who wants to promote boutique coffee.

Shanghai cappuccino

After complaining, let's see how powerful the combination of supercars and miraculous mills can bring to Shanghai coffee.

Cappuccino (comprehensive bean formula)

The front hazelnut aroma, the latter chocolate texture with milk sweet taste is good, the finish rhyme is quite clean

The taste is medium body, and the milk foam is melted well.

The overall impression is sweet Cabo, but the concentration is moderate and will not be too light.

It is quite in line with the bright impression of the whole Mingqian coffee shop, and it can be regarded as a very delightful Cabo.

The disadvantage is that the sweetness of a little tongue-scraping and tail rhyme is not lasting.

Espresso of Shanghai Mingqian Coffee College

Then add an espresso, which is the same recipe as cappucino.

Relatively speaking, condensing is a little boring.

On the whole, the sense of balance is good, and the acidity, sweetness and body are quite uniform.

The latter part is mainly dry drupe, but the tail rhyme has oily taste and obvious astringent taste.

The biggest flaw is that it is greasy and uncomfortable.

I'm not sure if it's the cleaning of the coffee machine or the brewing.

The bean itself is well-behaved, but it doesn't have a very amazing feature.

And when it's cold, it becomes super salty, so it's recommended to drink it quickly.

Shanghai coffee beans

The tone of fancy coffee is a safe route.

There is no problem in terms of uniformity, which many cafes with strong personal traits cannot do.

But maybe it's to suit the taste of the public.

In order to avoid the regret of leaving pearls that are not wonderful enough

If you can make more features, you will have a deeper impression.

Mingqian's own roasting coffee shop

Of course, the part of individual coffee is also the key point.

Mingqian Coffee College uses smart filter cups with EK43, and the baking degree is mostly medium and shallow.

Shanghai ESPRESSO

Wash Yega Xuefei (smart filter cup)

First of all, I have to complain about this incredibly thick mug.

To tell you the truth, it's a little difficult to enter. And it dulls the taste.

Clear fruit acid with obvious fragrance of flowers in the front.

The honey has a good sweet taste and is exquisite.

Feel the characteristics of Yega as soon as you enter, which is a great experience for beginners.

But the smell of the water in the middle is obvious, and it is suspected that there is something wrong with the cooking of the smart filter cup.

The aftertaste is so lacking that it is so clean that there is almost nothing left, which is suspected of avoiding the important points.

Shanghai Mingqian Coffee

Mingqian coffee is actually good, even for customers who are new to boutique coffee.

Maybe it's a pretty perfect experience.

But for me, it means to retain strength. It's kind of like

Only 60% of the beans are boiled, while the remaining 40% are buried to avoid defects.

So it's a little lethargic in the whole drinking process.

Mingqian Coffee College

Bright and clean is the overall image of Mingqian coffee.

White and green also remind people of the good mood of environmental protection and pleasure.

It can be said that the decoration of the store is quite consistent with the coffee.

But perhaps in the process of commercialization, there is a slight lack of the enthusiastic concern of the bar players.

Maybe it's a store's choice, but it's a little flawed for it.

Just like the clear and comfortable Yega in front, isn't it a pity that there is only a delightful flavor but a lack of long rhyme?

Shanghai couples Cafe

Maybe the bar players who come and go will become the stars of Shanghai coffee industry in the future.

And Mingqian Coffee College, an ancestral coffee training college, is bound to become a major force in the coffee circle in Shanghai.

But without a fixed bar, it is difficult for a player to make his own taste.

Without crazy paranoia, you can't cook 100% good taste.

For Mingqian, it may be possible to create new features through the exhibition store.

Or adjust the tone of the main store slightly, from training to customers a little more.

In addition to being clean and bright, Mingqian can have more warm coffee touch between people.

Shanghai pull flower

As soon as the cup or flower cup is pressed, there will be a strong water column to wash the stains and milk stains clean.

Such convenient and awesome things are sold in Mingqian online shopping malls.
