Flavor: candlelight charming fruit tonal inheritance of the traditional sun gives charming aroma, round and full aftertaste of long, sweet and sour fruit. Under the sun treatment, the taste is clean and pure. Candlelight has bright washed beans, gentle sun beans, complex flower aromas and distinct layers of fruit acidity.

This 90 + candle candle coffee bean is an ancient treatment developed based on 90 + years of experience, it is difficult to get a pure flavor, hand-select the most mature coffee cherry fruit, sun drying process is painstaking stirring to ensure uniformity. The end result is a very transparent and pure taste, which varies greatly from hot to cold, with attractive aromas of peach, passion, flowers and oak.

Ice drops of coffee beans

The coffee beans used in making ice drop coffee usually have a separate formula to make it easier to extract warm and full-bodied taste, while many friends, including our Qianjie coffee, all like to use better boutique coffee beans to extract ice drop coffee, which can obtain more individual flavor and flavor with personal preference. However, because ice drop coffee is infiltrated and extracted with cold water for a long time, I suggest that coffee beans with a stronger flavor can be selected for ice drop coffee beans, such as Kenya and Yega beans with strong personality. and the coffee extracted in this way will have a very strong personality.

The recipes we often use:

Sun Sidamo [candle] 60% + [Kenya] 40%

[Yimenmoka sun] 30% + [Uganda sun] 30%

Qianjie [Flower Butterfly] 50g + Panama [Love Sage Manor] 30g

2. The importance of flattening coffee powder

Ice drop coffee must be powdered, many people do not understand why ice drop coffee should also be pressed powder.

Here, it should be noted that the ice drop coffee powder is not compacted, but first gently pat the powder to keep the structure of the coffee powder in the filter uniform, and then use a flat-bottomed powder hammer to flatten it gently. Here, remember to press the powder gently, not as hard as extraction and concentration. If you press the powder too firmly, because the ice drop coffee does not have the pressure to extract like the coffee machine, it is easy to cause stagnant water in the powder layer and cannot filter the coffee liquid. And the ice drop filter paper or filter is usually at the bottom, unlike the coffee cup, which has a breathable convex groove, so when the coffee powder is soaked in water, the exhaust effect will also be affected, which will cause the whole pressed powder to be extracted unevenly.

3. Pre-wetting

The use of ice water "pre-immersion" is actually similar to the foggy steaming process in hand flushing, which can improve the extraction effect and the consistency of the finished product. in the case of ice droplet extraction at low temperature and in the form of filtration, direct ice droplets may cause uneven wetting of the powder layer. part of the coffee powder was overextracted while the other part of the coffee powder was not involved in the extraction.

4. Use filter cloth + filter paper

Increase the contact between water droplets and coffee powder to ensure uniform extraction

There is enough pre-soaking space for coffee to make the extracted coffee flavor more complete and clean. we use filter cloth and filter paper. after flattening the coffee powder, we suggest that you cover the coffee powder with a piece of filter paper. When the water droplets fall and touch the coffee powder, a small pit will slowly drip out from the surface of the coffee powder, and the water will flow down the pit instead of spreading around, so the coffee powder in the whole bottle will not be completely infiltrated, resulting in insufficient extraction, which can be avoided by laying a layer of filter paper.

We have compared the water droplets formed by different curling kettles and studied the ways in which coffee powder is absorbed by water droplets of different shapes. We found that the long water droplets lag behind and have a greater impact, so the coffee powder is soaked downward, which means that the coffee powder on the surface is more likely to be underextracted, while the round water droplets lag behind and have less impact. the soaking mode of coffee powder will spread around (as shown in the figure below), which means that round water droplets will more easily make the extraction of the whole ice drop more uniform. This also means that the dripping nozzle shape of the ice drip kettle is very important, and the mouth shape that can drip round water droplets is our preferred option.

5. the powder-to-water ratio of coffee, for a more appropriate level.

Coffee beans: water: ice 1:5:5

We are generally used to the powder-to-water ratio between 1:10 or 1:12. Personally, I think the powdered water in this range is more appropriate than the expression of flavor, and the coffee is neither too strong nor too weak. If you are used to serving ice to guests, it can be a little thicker to keep the coffee concentration after melting at an easy-to-taste level, depending on your taste.

These are the five factors to pay attention to in making iced coffee, and the best flavor should be kept for at least another 12-24 hours. This makes the aroma of coffee more outstanding.

And more importantly, the performance-to-price ratio is extremely high, a pack of half a pound 227 grams, the price is only 90 yuan. According to the calculation of 15 grams of each cup of coffee powder, 15 cups of coffee can be made in a bag, which costs only about 6 yuan per cup, which is very cost-effective for the coffee shop to sell dozens of yuan a cup.
