A clean stream in the coffee world?

So what exactly is cold coffee? Unlike the traditional cold coffee, which is cooled rapidly with ice in hot coffee, which takes only 2-3 minutes per cup on average, cold coffee does not use hot water at all, takes time and cost to make, and is able to despise other coffees.

Use hot water to brew coffee, because the hot coffee powder will release a chemical called tannin, which will eventually inevitably lead to the bitter taste of coffee beans. The cold extraction is to put the ground coffee powder into cold water, soak it statically for 16-20 hours, and then filter it into a coffee solution using filter paper. It will drink 2 cando 3 less acidity than the coffee that is boiled in normal hot water and then cooled, so it can be called cold extracted coffee.

The grade of ice drop coffee is even higher, and there are strict requirements for both water and fermentation time. A cup of delicious ice drop coffee lasts at least 3 hours: ice water below 5 degrees Celsius is dripped evenly into coffee powder at a speed of about 7 drops in 10 seconds, and then passed through the filter paper to become coffee liquid. It will take another 12-48 hours to refrigerate. This low-temperature coffee extracted for a long time has a smoother, sweeter aftertaste and lower caffeine content than traditional coffee. If you don't like bitter coffee, you can choose to add vanilla syrup for better taste.

Ice drop is the use of ice water mixture below 5 degrees C, let the ice naturally melt through the valve to control the speed of ice water dripping into coffee powder, ice water drops in the coffee powder slowly dissolve the flavor of coffee, dripping a little bit out of the extract, the complete extraction time is about 2 MUL for 8 hours. In order to get a better taste, it will take 12Murray 48 hours of cold fermentation time.

The amount of each extraction is very small (usually 30murmur60ml). The concentration is usually very high without ice cubes. If the coffee is too strong, it will be diluted with ice cubes according to your taste. Because of the slow process, ice drop coffee is more expensive, but tastes excellent.

American barista champion Laila once said in an exclusive interview that ice drop coffee has more aroma and more delicate and subtle taste than cold coffee.
