The general equipment is shown below.

Detailed explanation of process

The first step of ●

Prepare hot water and weigh 18g hand-washed coffee beans (water ratio 1:15 as an example)

Put the folding filter paper into the filter cup and rinse the filter paper and the filter cup with hot water: the filter paper will taste. To avoid affecting the flavor of the coffee, make the filter paper and the filter cup fit better (one of the key techniques).

The second step of ●

Warm the filter cup and the pot at the same time in order to prevent the coffee from getting cold during the filtration process, and the temperature will affect the flavor of the coffee.

The third step of ●

Grind (the thickness is close to the coarse sugar), pour in the coffee powder and gently pat the filter cup to make the coffee powder uniform and smooth, which is conducive to uniform extraction.

The fourth step of ●

Pour 85-90 degrees hot water (depending on the roasting degree and grinding thickness of the coffee) slowly from the middle of the coffee powder, not on the filter paper (one of the key techniques, trained to perfectly control the size and flow rate of the water). After the coffee powder is basically soaked, and the next pot begins to drip coffee liquid, stop injecting water, and stew for 30-45 seconds (one of the key techniques), the effect of steaming is to release the gas in the coffee (mainly carbon dioxide). After removing the gas, the coffee particles are evenly saturated with water, so that the extraction is uniform, and the coffee powder will expand in appearance.

Step 5 of ●

At the end of steaming, start in the middle and inject hot water for the first time (you can inject water one or more times). The flow should not be too large / too fast and should be kept continuously, which requires professional training to control the flow perfectly.

At this time, coffee powder will be full of follicles, oil and some soluble substances, aromatic substances will be constantly released, aroma overflowing, intoxicating.

Step 6 of ●

Water injection 270ml will stop the → warm cup tasting.

Summarize the key skills of making coffee by hand.

1. The selection and baking degree of roasted beans with coffee powder will affect the taste of hand-made coffee. You can choose moderate or light roasting according to your personal preference.

2. The water temperature should be slightly adjusted according to the baking degree of hand-washed coffee beans and the flavor to be reflected.

3. The thickness of coffee powder will also affect the taste of the finished product. Too coarse coffee powder can make the hot water flow too fast, making it impossible to extract completely. Too fine coffee powder will make the hot water flow too slowly, resulting in excessive extraction, and the final coffee will be bitter or tasteless.

4. The use of freshly roasted, freshly ground and high-quality coffee powder is the key to determining whether the coffee can bubble or not.

5. Reasonable stewing (time from 20 seconds to 45 seconds) is also essential, which is the key step to ensure the smooth flow of water and uniform extraction.

6. Try not to flush onto the filter paper when injecting hot water.

7. Perfect control of water flow size and flow rate

8. Keep a good mood, the coffee you make will taste better!

● hand-made coffee beans brand recommendation

Qianjie coffee roasted single hand-made coffee beans are fully guaranteed in terms of brand and quality. And more importantly, the performance-to-price ratio is extremely high, a pack of half a pound 227 grams, the average price is about 80-90 yuan.
