Smart filter cup use teaching

Hand-brewing coffee seems simple, but in fact, there are many technical details to master and too much equipment to prepare. Different factors in the process of hand-brewing may cause different flavors. For a coffee beginner, after discovering his favorite taste, it is difficult to write down his formula. Even if all variables (temperature / powder / water ratio / time) are the same, the taste of the hand will not be the same next time.

So today to teach you a simple equipment can brew a stable flavor of the appliance-smart filter cup.

Prepare hot water.

The recommended powder-to-water ratio is: one cup is 12g coffee powder vs. 200cc into the water, and the effluent is about 175cc, so the powder-to-water ratio is about 1175cc, and the concentration can be adjusted according to personal preference.

Next, fold the edge and bottom of the filter paper slightly, which will make the filter paper more stable in the cup.

If you don't like the smell of the filter paper, you can wash the filter paper first with hot water (please prepare extra).

Pour the coffee powder into the cup.

First water injection

Water temperature 90-95 degrees, soak all the coffee powder as the principle, pay attention to not too full.

When finished, let him soak for about 1 minute.

Second water injection

After a minute, pour the pre-measured hot water into the smart filter cup.

Put the lid on to keep warm.

Soak at this stage for about 2.5 minutes.

When the time is up, remove the top cover and draw twice on the surface with a spoon (do not stir up the coffee powder below).

Put the smart filter cup on the cup and the strong coffee will flow down.

400cc + 24g coffee powder into the water and about 350cc out of the water.

When the water is finished, the mellow coffee will be finished!

The biggest advantage of using a smart filter cup is that once you get the ratio you like: the ratio of water to powder, as long as the temperature is not too high or too low (between 90 and 95 degrees after the first injection), the taste will be very stable.

Summary of key points:

1. Ratio of powder to water: 24g:400cc water
