Ear-hanging coffee is actually a kind of hand-brewed coffee, English is Drip Bag Coffee means brewed coffee bag, ear-hanging coffee brewing method is similar to hand-brewed coffee, ear-hanging filter bag is filter paper, and the seller usually will first coffee bean grinding filling and then sealing film, but also save the existence of a grinder, in the brewing process also do not have to use a hand-brewed pot, so calculate, is saved several work.

It is even recommended to test/try the taste and quality of coffee beans in a coffee shop from the ear-hanging coffee.

The importance of grinding beans: freshly ground is the freshest

The first thing to say is the contact area, the area is a big factor, because the powder contact area is much larger than the bean-like, so in the brewing extraction, the beans ground into powder is a very important action, different grinder can handle the thickness is different, the finer the machine is usually more expensive, and the general hand-brewed coffee thickness can actually use about 3,000 grinder can be processed, for Italian concentrated Espresso only need to very fine particles.

So is this ear-hanging packaging method appropriate? The answer is to see the processing method and processing time, the longer the contact with the air after grinding, the easier it is to lose the aromatic molecules, that is, the so-called freshness is insufficient, the way to judge the freshness of coffee beans is to see if there will be fresh carbon dioxide bubbles when steaming, which is also used for ear-hanging coffee, so pay attention to the date of grinding beans and baking beans when purchasing, if the coffee powder placed for too long will cause insufficient extraction taste, rush out a cup of bad coffee.

Therefore, it is also recommended to buy a bean grinder and an ear bag to make your own ear-hanging coffee. When buying coffee beans, you should start grinding beans before brewing, put them into the ear bag, and brew them. You can also enjoy the taste of hand-brewed coffee.

Can ear-hanging coffee ear-hanging bags cause cancer?

At the end of 2016, a professor proposed that ear-hanging coffee may cause cancer, which makes many people retreat from ear-hanging coffee. The argument is how paper does not break under wet conditions. Normal paper will not be wet for a long time. In order to solve this situation, wet strength agents are added to paper, but these allegations are completely empty issues.

How can you say it's an empty topic?

This is because the ear-hanging bags for coffee filters are basically made of non-woven fabrics, almost all of which are imported from Japan and patented by Daiki Corporation and Yamanaka Industrial Corporation. They do not contain paper components, and there is no problem with wet strength agents. Therefore, this problem is not a problem at all. A closer look at the ear bag shows that there are many thin holes in the origin, which will flow out of these thin holes after the water has been extracted from the coffee, forming the coffee we drink.

It's not paper, then?

Nonwoven fabric is actually made of plastic, early is made of PET material, PET is the material used by the bottle, and we all know that the bottle is not heat-resistant, so in the competition between the two companies, Yamanaka Industrial Co., Ltd. developed PP polypropylene material, can be more heat-resistant at about 140 degrees Celsius, and now the commercial products are tested by the Taiwan government for PP material safety ear-hanging bag, thus reducing the suspicion of cancer.
