People who really like coffee should bring their own coffee utensils at home. Today, let's learn with the editor how to brew coffee with coffee utensils from all over the world.

French filter kettle

French filter pots (Frech press), also known as coffee pots (cafe`re) or coffee piston pots (coffee piunger), are perhaps the most underrated of all coffee brewing methods. It is cheap, easy to operate, and easy to make stable coffee, everyone can prepare one at home.

▷ French filter kettle

1. Powder-water ratio, 75g/l.

2. Grinding thickness, medium (medium) fine sugar-like thickness.

3. The coffee beans are weighed and ground before they begin to brew.

4. Use fresh drinking water suitable for brewing coffee and low mineral content and boil.

5. Pour the ground coffee powder into the French filter pot and place the whole pot on the scale. 6. Pour the right amount of hot water, carefully observe the weight on the scale when pouring water, until the ratio of 75g/l powder to water is reached, and try to wet all the coffee powder as quickly as possible.

7. Soak the coffee powder in hot water for 4 minutes, during which time the coffee powder will float on the surface to form a coffee powder layer.

After 8.4 minutes, use a tablespoon to stir up the coffee powder layer, which will allow most of the coffee powder to sink to the bottom of the pot.

9. At this time, the small foam, accompanied by a little suspended coffee powder, will still stay on the liquid surface, remove and discard it with a tablespoon.

10. Keep waiting for 5 minutes. Anyway, the coffee is still hot. While waiting, more coffee powder and fine powder will sink to the bottom of the pot.

11. Put in the metal piston, but don't press it down. The action of pressing down will produce an eddy current, which will stir up the fine powder that was originally sunk at the bottom.

12. Slowly pour the coffee liquid into the cup through a metal strain. there will be a little powder in the coffee liquid when it is almost done. if you can not accept that you do not pour all the coffee, you will drink a cup of delicious and flavored coffee without dregs.

13. Let the coffee cool in the cup for a while, and then you can enjoy it.

Hand punch pot

The word "hand flushing" can be used to describe many different brewing methods, the most common of which is filter cooking: hot water is passed through a layer of coffee powder to extract the flavor of the coffee powder on the way, and some materials are usually used to filter the coffee powder. it could be paper or cloth, or even a thin metal mesh.

▷ hand brewing or follicular brewing

1. Powder-water ratio, 60g/l.

two。 Grind thick, medium / fine sugar-like thickness.

3. The coffee beans are weighed and ground before they begin to brew.

4. Suitable for brewing coffee. Fresh drinking water with low mineral content, boiled.

5. When the kettle continues to heat, put the filter paper into the filter cup and wet the filter paper with a little hot water first, which helps reduce the taste of the paper into the coffee and increases the temperature of the filter cup.

6. Pour the coffee powder into the filter paper, place the filter cup on top of the pot or cup, and place the entire brewing equipment group on the electronic scale.

7. If you brew directly in a hot kettle, boil the hot water and wait for about 10 seconds before starting to brew; if you use a hand kettle, please immediately pour the hot water into the hand kettle.

8. Brew with an electronic scale and pour in hot water about twice the amount of coffee powder. Don't worry too much about the accuracy of the amount of water, just make sure the hot water is enough to soak all the coffee powder. I like to pick up the filter cup and turn it around to make sure all the coffee powder is soaked. You can also carefully stir the coffee powder layer with a spoon. Wait 30 seconds for the next water injection.

9. Slowly pour the remaining hot water into the coffee powder layer, pay attention to the weight on the electronic scale and pay attention to the amount of water previously injected. Pour water into the middle of the coffee powder layer and try not to pour it into the edge of the filter cup so that the hot water will flow directly to the lower pot without passing through the coffee powder layer.

10. After adding enough hot water, the height of the coffee liquid is about 2-3 cm below the edge of the filter cup. Gently stir the powder layer with a spoon, which will make the coffee powder adhere to the filter paper fall off.

11. Keep the water in the filter cup dripping until there seems to be no water, at which point the surface of the coffee powder layer in the filter paper should look relatively flat.

twelve。 Throw away the filter paper and coffee grounds, put the filter cup away, and you can start to enjoy it.

Philharmonic pressure

Aeroperss is an unusual coffee brewing device, and I haven't met anyone who has used it but hasn't fallen in love with it. Philharmonic pressure was invented in 2005 by Alan Adler (Alan Adler), who also invented the Aerobie Frisbee, so the cooking equipment was named Aeropreaa. Philadelphia is cheap, durable and easy to carry. Many coffee workers carry it when they travel, and it is very convenient to clean here.

▷ traditional Philharmonic pressure cooking

1. For a small cup of full-bodied coffee, I suggest you use the powder-to-water ratio of 100g/1. If you want to rush faster, you must use a relative grinding scale. If you choose a thicker grinding scale, you have to extend the brewing time to achieve good results.

two。 For a cup of homemade coffee, I suggest using the same proportion of 75g/1 powder as the French filter kettle, because the soaking method is used at this time. Again, you can decide how to match the brewing time and grinding thickness.

3. Weigh the coffee beans and grind them before you start brewing.

4. Put a piece of filter paper on the filter and lock it through the filter and the boiler body.

5. Pour in a little hot water, preheat the cooker and wet the filter paper.

6. Put a mug on the electronic scale, put the brewer on the mug, and then pour in the coffee powder.

7. Make a pot of fresh drinking water suitable for brewing coffee and low mineral content.

8. After boiling the hot water, wait 10-20 seconds, turn on the electronic scale, pour in the amount of water you set (for example, I will use 15 grams of coffee powder to pour 200 milliliters of hot water), and start the timer.

9. Quickly stir the coffee powder, then the love press piston device will be positioned to make sure that the piston fits well with the brewer body, but do not push down yet. Keep the brewer in a similar hollow state, and the coffee liquid will not leak from under the body.

10. After soaking for a period of time (it is recommended to start from 1 minute), take off the electronic scale with the mug and the brewer body, and slowly press down the piston until all the coffee liquid is rolled out.

11. To discard the coffee grounds, pull the piston back 2-3 cm to prevent further dripping. Disassemble the filter, point the brewer body at the kitchen waste bucket, push the piston down, let the coffee grounds fall, pat the coffee grounds with your hands, let the coffee grounds fall, and then immediately flush the brewer body and the bottom of the piston.

twelve。 Enjoy the coffee.

Stove type mocha pot

Many people have a mocha pot at home, whether it is still in use or hidden in the cupboard. Or in many ways, I wonder if I want to explain how popular it is, because the mocha pot is not a user-friendly brewing device, and it's not easy to make good coffee. Mocha pots often make very rich and bitter coffee, but it is acceptable to espresso drinkers in Italy. In Italy, almost every household uses a mocha pot to make coffee.

▷ on-stove mocha pot

1. Powder-water ratio, 200g/l.

two。 Grinding thickness, fine grinding / fine salt.

3. Grind it before you start to brew. Fill the coffee powder into the filter and flatten the powder, do not fill it.

4. Make a pot of fresh drinking water suitable for brewing coffee and low mineral content. The advantage of using hot water is that the whole mocha pot is heated on the stove for a short time, and the coffee powder will not be spoiled by heat, which can reduce the intensity of bitterness.

5. Pour hot water into the mocha pot holder to reach the water level under the pressure relief valve. Never let the water exceed the pressure relief valve, which is a safety device that will discharge too much pressure from the base.

6. Put the filter full of coffee powder in place, make sure the round rubber washer is completely clean, and then carefully assemble the whole mocha pot. If the upper and lower seats are not completely closed, the cooking process will not proceed smoothly.

7. Put the mocha pot on the stove, turn on medium and medium heat, and keep the upper lid open. When the water in the lower seat begins to boil, the pressure generated by the steam will push the hot water up from the hollow tube in the middle to the position of the coffee powder layer. the greater the fire, the greater the pressure, and the faster the brewing process will be completed, but not too fast.

8. In the upper seat of the mocha pot, you should see the coffee coming out slowly. Listen carefully. When you hear a grunt, you should turn off the fire and stop cooking. This grunt means that most of the water has risen, and steam begins to pass through the coffee powder layer, which will produce more bitterness.

9. To stop cooking and continue, cool the base of the mocha kettle with cold water from the hose, and the steam will condense, allowing the internal pressure to disappear.

10. Enjoy your coffee.

Siphon coffee maker

Siphon coffee maker (Vacuum Coffee Pot) is a very old and increasingly popular and entertaining way of brewing, but it is also disturbing in many ways and causes a lot of frustration, even stuffing the siphon coffee maker back into the cupboard or becoming an ornament on the display shelf.

▷ siphon pot coffee pot brewing

1. Ratio of powder to water: 75g/l.

two。 Grinding thickness: medium / fine sugar thickness.

3. Weigh the coffee beans and grind them before you start brewing.

4. Make a pot of fresh drinking water with low mineral content suitable for brewing coffee.

5. Fix the filter in the upper seat and make sure the filter fits the upper seat.

6. Put the lower seat on the electronic scale and weigh it and pour in the amount of hot water you want.

7. Move the lower seat to the heat source (small gas lamp, alcohol lamp or halogen lamp), please hold its handle.

8. Insert the upper seat into the lower seat, but not completely sealed. If the upper and lower seats are sealed too early, the expanding gas in the lower seat will also push up the hot water. At this time, the hot water has not reached the appropriate temperature, which will make the coffee bad.

9. When the hot water begins to boil, let the upper and lower seats close. If you are using a heat source that can control the fire, turn the fire down. At this point, the boiling hot water will be pushed to the upper seat, and you must see if the filter is still fixed in the middle of the upper seat. if not, you will see a lot of large bubbles on the edge of the filter, so you can carefully push the filter with a stirring rod or spoon to get it back to the right place.

10. Hot water just on the seat when the bubble is more intense, accompanied by larger bubbles, when the bubble becomes small, you can begin to cook, pour in the coffee powder and stir until all the coffee powder is evenly moist, start the timer.

11. A powder layer will be formed on the surface of the upper pot. 30 seconds after the clock starts, gently stir the powder layer so that the coffee powder in the lower layer can continue to come into contact with the hot water below.

twelve。 Turn off the heat source after another 30 seconds. Once the coffee liquid is sucked back into the lower seat, gently stir the upper powder layer, once clockwise, then counterclockwise, to prevent the coffee powder from clinging to the edge of the upper seat. But if you stir too much, you may end up seeing a small mound of coffee powder, which represents uneven extraction.

13. The hair dye coffee liquid is completely sucked back into the lower pot, leaving a slightly raised layer of coffee powder in the upper pot, pouring the coffee liquid into another coffee pot, because the residual heat of the lower pot will make the coffee liquid taste overcooked.

14. Let the coffee machine cool. Siphon brewing will make very hot coffee.

15. Start enjoying your coffee.
