Plug air kettle (syphon)

Siphon pot (syphon), also known as plug pot, siphon coffee pot requires high technology, as well as more cumbersome procedures, but it can extract the most perfect part of coffee, especially coffee beans with that kind of refreshing and bright acid, and acid with a mellow flavor, plug pot cooking method can give full play to the characteristics of this kind of coffee.

Siphon, which originated in Germany, is a tool that uses the pressure caused by boiling water to make coffee. The structure of the plug kettle is the upper and lower pot connected by a conduit in the middle, and the kettle filled with hot water will be heated by alcohol lamp or gas lamp first. Because at 1 atmospheric pressure, the volume ratio of 1 gram of liquid water to 1 gram of water vapor is 1100, when the volume of steam in the kettle increases with the temperature, the liquid water can be easily pushed through the conduit to the upper pot filled with filter cloth and coffee powder, and the water will continue to be supported by an endless stream of steam on the pot.

When the heating stops, the air in the lower pot gradually cools and shrinks, while the coffee liquid that has been soaked in hot water in the upper pot will flow back to the lower pot because it has lost the support of steam, and the coffee grounds will be blocked by a filter cloth and left in the upper pot. Finally, remove the upper pot and you can enjoy the coffee in the lower pot.

Qianjie Coffee suggests the use of plug Pot

Step 1, pour hot water into the ball under the glass, bring it to a boil over high heat and wait for the water to boil.

Add 200cc when boiling one cup, 175cc when not pouring bottom water, and 350cc when boiling two cups. After pouring water, wipe the ball under the glass with a dishcloth, otherwise it is easy to break the glass.

Step 2, load the filter into the ball.

Take the filter out of the water and press it dry, hook the filter hook to the bottom of the ball, and then use the adjusting rod to adjust the filter position to the middle position.

Step 3, after the water boils, insert the upper ball into the lower ball.

Turn it into a small fire, carefully tilt the ball on the glass into the lower ball, and make sure that the water will not roll too much and spray out, press the ball on the glass slightly straight down and rotate at the same time.

Step 4, add coffee powder after the water rises by half, start stirring, and start timing after stirring.

Pour 15 grams into each cup and start stirring for the first time. Instead of stirring around, press the powder into the water from top to bottom, so that the forces in two different directions collide with each other. Don't stir too long. Just spread the coffee powder.

Stir for the second time at step 5 and 25 seconds.

Step 6.

Stir for the third time at 55 seconds and turn off the heat at 60 seconds.

When you brew a cup of coffee in only 50 seconds (the second time in 20 seconds and the third time in 45 seconds), pull up the upper ball quickly after turning off the heat, pour out the remaining water from the lower ball, and then insert it back into the upper ball. this action is called inverted bottom water. if you don't want to do this step, the water is only 175 grams.
