Many people can't try delicious black coffee all the time because it is too cumbersome to make a cup of coffee. But the emergence of hanging-ear coffee has changed that. Qianjie Coffee will teach you today that you can easily get a cup of delicious black coffee.

The invention of hanging ear coffee bag

In China, it is not difficult to obtain hanging-ear coffee bags (also known as filter-hanging coffee). They are sold in major e-commerce, supermarkets and most coffee shops, and it is also common to brew hanging-ear coffee bags themselves. But do you know which country first invented the hanging-ear coffee bag? It is not mature coffee markets such as Europe and the United States, but Japan, which is adjacent to China.

When it comes to Japanese coffee, most people think of hand-made coffee, and indeed, hand-made coffee is also very popular in Japan, but the fast-paced young Japanese office workers do not have time to wait for a cup of hand-made coffee.

With a hanging ear coffee bag, all you need is hot water and a mug of the right size, and you can enjoy good coffee anytime, anywhere.

As a result, in 1990, Japan Yamanaka Industrial Co., Ltd. applied the concept of tea bag to coffee, invented hanging-ear coffee and applied for a patent. However, the hanging-ear coffee bag designed by Yamanaka Industry can not bear the weight of brewing coffee, and it is easy to lose balance in the brewing process, so it has not been commercialized successfully. It was not until 1998 that Daji improved the original invention and extended the ear-hanging part to the outside that today's hanging-ear coffee came into being.

The market for hanging-ear coffee bags

Hang-ear coffee bag is called Instant drip coffee bag in English. It has the advantages of instant coffee, which is fast, convenient and does not need brewing utensils. At the same time, it can make people enjoy the fun of hand brewing.

Because the hanging-ear coffee bag combines the advantages of instant coffee and hand-brewed coffee, it makes the hanging-ear coffee bag grow rapidly in the East Asian market. In 2011, the global sales of hanging-ear coffee reached 1.4 billion packets, about 11200 metric tons, of which 94% of the sales came from Japan. Starbucks of Japan also launched hanging-ear coffee for this market. Although the total sales volume of hanging-ear coffee bags in the world is small and the market scale is relatively small, the growth rate is very fast.

In the past, the market share of instant coffee in China's brewing coffee market was as high as 70%, while that of hanging-ear coffee was only 10%. However, in recent years, due to the food safety storm made consumers nervous, coupled with the rise of boutique coffee, coffee consumers' demand for coffee is no longer just refreshing, hanging-ear coffee has both quality and convenience, happens to meet consumer demand, therefore, the growth rate of hanging-ear coffee in China reached as high as 30% in 2017.

Hanging ear coffee bag and freshly ground coffee

With the continuous progress of hanging ear coffee bag packaging technology, it has been able to completely isolate the oxygen from the outside world. Therefore, as long as the hanging-ear coffee beans are of good quality and drink during the best taste period, basically there will not be much difference between the hanging-ear coffee and the freshly ground hand-brewed coffee.

The biggest advantage of brewing hanging-ear coffee is that professional baristas have set most of the factors for brewing coffee. You don't need to choose beans, consider the ratio of water to powder and the size of coffee powder, and you don't need brewing utensils and human-level skills. you only need hot water and a mug of the right size to enjoy good coffee anytime and anywhere.

1. First of all, the net content of coffee powder in hanging-ear coffee has a fixed label (usually 10 grams). In this way, the problem of bean grinder and electronic weighing is solved.

two。 The second is to solve the water injection and water temperature, and hand coffee as 1:15-1:16 ratio, so brewing out of the coffee liquid should reach 140ml to 150ml. The water temperature is about 90 ℃, and a thermometer or temperature-controlled kettle is preferred. If not, you can roughly judge the temperature. Generally, turn off the heat source and open the lid after the kettle is boiled. Wait 2-3 minutes, the water temperature will reach about 90 ℃ (room temperature 28 ℃).

3. When ready, take out and tear open the seal of the earbag, open the ears at both ends of the bag, hang it on the rim of the mug (water cup), and shake the powder layer flat.

4. The first stage of water injection, as long as the coffee powder layer is completely wet, carry on a 30s steaming.

5. After the stuffy steaming, the second water injection is carried out, and the small water flow is filled directly around the circle, waiting for the powder layer to drop slightly and continue to be filled with water, repeatedly, until the coffee capacity in the cup reaches about 140-150 ml, you can remove the earbag and enjoy it.

6. If you want a more accurate amount of water, you can also pour 150-160 milliliters of water into the kettle. After all the water in the kettle is filled during brewing, the earbag can be removed when the coffee liquid flows into the cup. The whole brewing process is completed in about 1 minute.

Because the hanging-ear coffee is pre-ground, the flavor will spread faster than the whole coffee beans. So if you want to enjoy the flavor of coffee, you should use it up as soon as possible.
