Philadelphia is a simple instrument for making coffee by hand. Overall, its structure is similar to that of a syringe. When in use, put ground coffee and hot water in its "syringe", then press the putter, and the coffee will flow into the container through the filter paper. It combines the immersion quenching method of the French filter pressure pot, the filter paper filtration of the follicular coffee, and the fast, pressure quenching principle of Italian coffee.

The coffee brewed by Philadelphia has the richness of espresso, the purity of brewed coffee and the smoothness of French pressure. By changing the size and pressing speed of coffee grinding particles, users can cook different flavors according to their own preferences. In addition to being fast, convenient and effective, its cleaning and maintenance is surprisingly simple-it takes only a few seconds after use. The Philharmonic pressure also has the advantages of short size, light weight and not easy to damage, so it is quite suitable to be used as a coffee brewing apparatus for going out.

You know, if you want to have a set of hand-flushing equipment at home, you can't do without these things: hand-flushing pot, bean grinder, drip filter set, filter paper, thermometer, electronic scale. At the same time, the water temperature, flow speed, pre-soaking method, each small difference will affect the taste of the final cup of coffee. But if you have an Philharmonic pressure, everything becomes very simple. One device, four steps, easy to drink pure Espresso.

❶ take 13-15g coffee beans and grind them.

It doesn't matter if you don't have an electronic scale. You can just take the amount of your own measuring spoon and grind the powder according to your own preference. Generally speaking, too coarse powder will lead to insufficient extraction, and too detailed powder may bring out more bitterness. If you are drinking alone, you can match it with a manual Porlex bean grinder; if you want to make two people at the same time, you should choose an electric bean grinder to save effort.

❷ prepare about 90 degrees hot water, soak the filter paper in the filter (you can warm the cup with dripping hot water), and pour coffee powder into the filter tube.

❸ first pour a small amount of hot water (at the ② of the scale) and stir to let the coffee powder "stew" exhaust; then add full hot water and stir, cover the strainer upside down and press down at a uniform speed.

❹ unscrewed the strainer, gently pushed the press rod, and the coffee grounds pressed into the shape of a cake fell out directly and washed with water.

So, if you use Philharmonic pressure to brew some flavor coffee, how to make it?

The old street coffee [Panama Alida], for example, this bean is sun-treated, with a strong fermented aroma and preserved fruit-like sweetness.

Parameters: degree of grinding: medium and fine grinding, water temperature 89-90 ℃, ratio of powder to water: 1:15, reverse pressure.

Technique: directly pour water to 225 grams, stir in 1 minute, invert Philharmonic pressure for 1 minute and 30 seconds to press the coffee out.

A little knowledge about Philharmonic pressure:

1. Why is Philharmonic pressure equipped with a stirring rod?

The top handle of the Philharmonic pressure mixing rod can prevent the mixing rod from touching the filter paper and will not scratch the inner wall of the cylinder, affecting the tightness.

2. Why is there no standard tutorial for Philharmonic pressure?

Philadelphia is like another siphon coffee maker (Syphon) invented by Americans. For Americans, French, Germans and other European and American countries, siphon pots are only daily necessities, and coffee brewing is very simple and convenient, while the Japanese upgrade siphon pots from daily necessities to the level of technology and art, using various ways to use siphon pots to extract (Extraction) amazing boutique coffee. It is precisely because of this spirit that Hario is created to make the development of the Japanese coffee industry more professional. Japanese siphon pot product manual does not mention the use of siphon pot to make coffee, only the instructions for the use of the product itself. The Japanese emphasize that a siphon pot can extract a good cup of coffee. But they don't specify how to do it. How?

3. What is the difference between standard filter paper and metal filter mesh?

Using standard filter paper to make Philharmonic pressure, the coffee will have a pure taste, obvious acidity and light taste.

If you use a metal filter, the coffee will have a thicker taste, stronger aroma and lower acidity. The number of screen holes varies from type to type, so more consideration should be given to the selection of metal screen.
