What degree of roasted coffee beans is suitable for the French press? Application method of water-powder ratio in pressure kettle

Among the coffee drinkers in the city, some people like the ritual of life made by hand and the laboratory taste of siphon coffee, while others like the convenience and simplicity of the French kettle. And the secret of each kind of coffee utensils does not only rest on the appearance and manipulation, making coffee is more like a science, each kind of utensils has its own characteristics of extracting coffee, but also requires us to constantly arrange and combine, to find the most perfect proportion and the best taste.

The design principle of French pressure coffee is very simple, as long as the water and coffee powder are poured into the container, and then the coffee grounds are pushed to the bottom with a filter rod, the coffee can be filtered, and the metal filter can be cleaned and reused. Although the principle is simple, it is extremely efficient, and it does not need to use filter paper, so it is more environmentally friendly and economical. French filter kettle is the most rapid way to extract the original flavor of coffee, it can keep the precious natural oil of coffee from being absorbed by filter paper, so it can show the most primitive, pure and changeable flavor of coffee.

The French press is easy to operate like a "lazy coffee utensil". Although it is easy to operate, it does not lose the complete flavor of a good cup of coffee.

As a matter of fact, the extraction of the pressure pot is the closest way to brewing the products measured in the cup, which can give full play to the oil, flavor, flavor and other flavors in the coffee, smooth, sweet and full-bodied taste, which is a very good choice for breakfast coffee.

The coffee beans used in the French pressure pot are more suitable for coffee beans from a single origin, or coffee beans with strong sour taste, and coffee beans with medium to deep roasting. Qianjie coffee is recommended to use coffee beans with a better balance. For example, in the bean list of Qianjie coffee, rations beans Brazilian coffee beans, Colombian Huilan coffee beans, Indonesia's Mantenin coffee beans, Costa Rican Tarazu coffee beans, these coffee beans mentioned in the front street have a balanced flavor, with dark chocolate and fruit flavor, because the French kettle is soaked and extracted, which can show the oil, aroma and strong coffee feeling of coffee. The deep-roasted coffee beans are easy to reflect the aroma and mellow thickness of the coffee, so the deep-roasted beans in Qianjie coffee are very suitable for making by pressing pot. The coffee made by French filter press has better aroma and stronger taste when roasted deeply.

As for lightly roasted coffee beans, Qianjie is not recommended to be used in French presses. Esser's coffee beans are more suitable for shallow roasting, such as Yega Sherfield Coffee and Red Cherry Coffee on Qianjie Street. It is easier to highlight the flavour of lemon blossom fruit by hand.

Take a look at the front street how to use the press pot to make a great cup of coffee. The Brazilian queen, Manning, Columbia cymbidium, taste and flavor are all suitable for the French press. Use this cymbidium coffee bean to brew it.

The home-baked coffee beans of Qianjie Coffee are grinded with the degree of grinding of the raised Huilan coffee beans to produce the grinding degree suitable for the pressure pot, medium coarse powder, which is thicker than hand-brewed coffee powder. Qianjie recommends a standard sieve pass rate of 70% to 75%. If the powder is too fine, the coffee powder will run out of the hole in the filter and the coffee will become cloudy.

You can start with a powder-to-water ratio of 1 to 10. For example, 20g coffee beans with about 200g water for 2 people, and the final ratio depends on your taste. For example, the amount of coffee powder in Qianjie Coffee is 10 grams per small packet, such as Brazilian and Manning Coffee in this season. It is also very convenient to press a pot of coffee with these ground earbags. The recommended powder-to-water ratio in Qianjie is 1: 16515 grams of coffee powder with 240 grams of water.

Qianjie suggests the need to prepare electronic scales, although it is a pressure kettle with scales and measuring spoons, it is still recommended to prepare electronic scales, because coffee beans will change their density due to many factors such as growth altitude and baking methods, and the quality and weight of each kind of beans are different. In addition, if you make a very good cup of coffee, if you want to replicate the taste, you must record this proportion, on the contrary, if you make a bad cup of coffee, you will know how to adjust according to the data.

In the front street, use fresh and clean Yibao mineral water soft water, do not use too hard water extraction, do not use unfiltered water, if the water itself is not good, it is difficult to make good coffee.

The steps of brewing coffee in front street:

Grind the coffee beans and pour them into the kettle, ignoring what many people say about the degree of grinding. Don't grind them too rough, just moderate grinding.

Boil the water at a temperature of 93 ℃, then pour in the right amount of water. we use 15g coffee powder to pour 240g hot water and stir with a spoon to fully blend the coffee powder and water.

Put the lid on the lid of the kettle, stop the strainer at the top, and let it rest for 4 minutes.

Before pressing the filter, you can open the lid and scoop out the foam and small debris floating on it with a spoon, and then press the filter to the end.

When the brewing is finished, pour it out into another thermal insulation container immediately! Don't delay, because the coffee powder is still in it. Then pour it into a glass and enjoy it.

The French pressure pot is the easiest, convenient and environmentally friendly way to brew the coffee. The coffee brewed out is thicker, tastier and more layered than the automatic dripping coffee machine, and it requires no electricity, no heating, no filter paper, and is easy to clean. you can drink coffee oil together, which is most suitable for workers who are busy at work but want to steal their leisure time. Come and try it yourself.
