Brewing: to brew a good cup of coffee, you need not only fresh coffee powder and slightly harder water, but also a set of easy-to-use brewing tools. There are three main types of coffee machines in common use.

Drip filter: wet the coffee powder with water and let the coffee liquid flow through the filter cloth or filter paper and flow into the container at the speed of natural fall. Basically, this method does not soak the coffee powder, just let the hot water pass slowly through the coffee powder. Both the drip cup and the electric coffee maker fall into this category and are the simplest brewing tools that can make clean and brightly colored coffee.

Bubble type: put the coffee powder into the pot, soak it in hot water for several minutes, and then filter out the coffee grounds by a filter cloth or screen to form a cup of coffee liquid.

Siphon pots, drip pots, Belgian coffee pots and Vietnamese coffee pots are all follicular brewing tools, and they all have a soaking process to form a more complex taste.

High-pressure type: use pressurized hot water to penetrate the compacted coffee powder to produce a thick cup of coffee in this form of tools such as a mocha pot and an espresso machine.

Quick brewing method: can use Italian espresso machine, faster coffee brewing method. The espresso machine can extract several cups of coffee successively. The oil and gum in the coffee beans can be emulsified and dissolved under high pressure during the brewing process, and the essence of the beans is completely extracted by pressure, making the brewed coffee stronger, better in taste and flavor.

Second: get rid of defective beans, mixed with defective beans, the taste will become worse. Therefore, it is better to be missing than rotten to get rid of the defective beans without stinginess. For example, long worms with holes, abnormal development, shell without benevolence, will be picked out.

Third: understand the characteristics of coffee beans, if the individual characteristics of the coffee beans to be blended are not well understood, it is difficult to mix good or desired coffee, such as mocha coffee is more sour, it can not be used to dilute the sour taste of coffee.
