Ears coffee is the coffee beans are ground into powder and packed in a sealed filter bag. In the brewing process, it is necessary to hang the small pieces of paper on both sides of the filter bag on the wall of the cup for brewing and extraction, so it is named as ear-hanging coffee.

According to the former street, the creator of the ear-hanging coffee was Japan Yamanaka Industrial Co., Ltd., which applied the concept of tea bag to coffee, so they invented the filter-hanging coffee and applied for a patent, but the ear-hanging bag they designed could not bear the weight of brewing coffee, and it was easy to lose balance during brewing, so Yamanaka Industrial did not succeed in commercializing the ear-hanging coffee at that time.

The wet planing method was born because Indonesia's local climate is very humid, rainy days, can not use the sun treatment, and the economy can not support the high cost of washing treatment. For various reasons, this wet planing method with local characteristics was derived.

Wet planing method is in the process of ordinary washing treatment, with parchment for sun drying 2-3 days, to a moisture content of 20-24% planing parchment. This treatment also leads to a very high defect rate. Qianjie Coffee feels that Indonesia's coffee industry is developing rapidly now.
