● Hand washing steps:

Step 1: Bean Selection

The choice of hand-brewed coffee beans is particularly important, it is the direct source of taste of this cup of coffee, the fresher the beans, the stronger their taste and aroma. Of course, the easiest way to choose is to look at the packaging date, baked beans within a month, is the best taste period, elected as appropriate.

● Step 2: Grinding

Grinding everyone needs to choose a suitable grinder for their own, remember not to grind deeply, so that coffee powder is too fine. The grinder grinds the coffee powder to be about as thick as the white granulated sugar, and at the same time ensures that the coffee powder is more uniform in thickness. This is conducive to brewing, the water flow evenly, the extract of the material taste better.

● Step 3: Water powder ratio

The usual ratio of powder to water is 1:12--17. Take the former street coffee as an example, that is to say, 20 grams of coffee powder produces 240--340ml coffee liquid (100ml, 200ml, etc. will be marked on the general sharing pot). The specific weight of coffee depends on the number of people sharing, but popular filter cups generally can withstand between 20 and 30 grams.

● Step 4: Water temperature control

The control of water temperature is also very important in the coffee brewing process, which directly affects the taste of coffee liquid. It is best to use a temperature-controlled pot when boiling water to keep the water temperature in the best state at any time. According to the roasting degree of coffee, there is a general selection range of water temperature:

Light baking: 90-92 degrees Celsius

Medium light baking: 87-90 degrees Celsius

Medium baking: 85-87 degrees Celsius

Medium-deep baking: 83-85 degrees Celsius

Deep baking: 80-83 degrees Celsius

(Xiaobian likes to control the water temperature at 88-90 degrees, the liquid is bright red, bright, thick and not bitter, and the aroma is very sufficient)

● Step 5: Steaming

Hand-brewed coffee emphasizes "three notes and three receipts", that is, three-stage water injection, the whole brewing process time control within 1 minute 40 seconds-2 minutes 30 seconds, it is recommended to use a timer timing.

The first water injection is called steam-steaming, and the time is kept within 30 seconds. The water injection ratio is 1:2, i.e. 20 grams of coffee, and the water injection volume for steam-steaming is 40ml. The water is injected counterclockwise from the center to the periphery.

When you get here, you need to put the filter cup on the sharing pot and lay filter paper at the same time.(Filter paper selection: filter paper size model, according to the filter cup you use, filter paper is also divided into bleached and original pulp filter paper, bleached filter paper pulp smell is smaller, Xiaobian likes to choose bleached filter paper).

Remember to soak the filter paper first, rinse the filter paper again, on the one hand, make the filter paper better fit the filter cup wall, on the other hand, you can remove the taste of the filter paper, so as not to affect the flavor of coffee.

● Step 6: Second injection, select fine water injection

Water injection should pay attention to the speed of water flow to maintain uniform, water injection in accordance with the counterclockwise direction,(according to the specific filter cup consideration) along the filter cup center presents a circular evenly injected around. Xiaobian chose to inject water counterclockwise because it would correspondingly lengthen the contact path and contact time between water and coffee powder and improve the overall extraction rate of coffee. The second water injection is generally over 100 ml.

● Step 7: The third water injection, choose to use coarse water flow for rapid injection

Here we should pay attention to whether the use of coarse water or fine water injection, must be stable and uniform injection, remember, stable, stable. Coarse water is injected to reduce the force on the coffee powder, and with a stable winding technique, the taste of the coffee solution will also stabilize.

Attention should be paid to small details here. Always pay attention to the electronic scale under the sharing cup. The amount of water injected shall be strictly controlled within the corresponding range (i.e. 20 grams shall be strictly controlled within 240- 340ml and no more than 340ml shall be allowed).

● Hand brewed coffee brand recommendation

Front Street Coffee Roasted single item hand brewed coffee beans in the brand and quality are fully guaranteed. More importantly, the cost performance is extremely high, a pack of half pounds 227 grams, the average price of 80-90 yuan. According to the calculation of 15 powder per cup of coffee, a pack can make 15 cups of coffee, each cup only costs about 6 yuan, which is extremely cost-effective for the price of dozens of cups sold in cafes.
