Bingbok can think of it as milk concentrate to get "concentrated milk" with a higher sweetness and consistency, which originated from a German winery called Kulmbacher, which left the wine outside in the cold during the brewing of bock (a beer that emphasizes malt flavor). Of course, the wine almost turned into ice. When the winemakers take out the ice cubes, there is very little wine left, but the wine is amazingly rich. This is the Bock of Ice Distillation.

And its production principle is because the freezing point of alcohol is-113 degrees Celsius, water is at 0 degrees Celsius, because the water is separated from alcohol after freezing, and then take away the unflavored water, leaving it stronger than before. Alcohol is also more alcoholic, this brewing method is called "frozen distillation" or "fractional freezing", and frozen distillation can be repeated over and over again. Used to continuously increase the concentration and alcohol content of the wine, a wine with an alcohol content of only 5 degrees can reach more than 50 degrees after repeated distillation.

So today, we also apply this principle to milk processing, because purified milk with higher protein content is also easier to get the smell of cheese or condensed milk, so milk coffee made from Bingbok purified milk will be sweeter, thicker, thicker and more fragrant.

What is Bing Bock?

Bingbok, which comes from the transliteration of German (Eisbock), is a beer type name and a low-temperature fermented lager. Frozen beer is cooled and melted at a low temperature to remove moisture, thereby improving alcohol content and flavor. At first, it was a process of purification of alcohol. there is no separation of food and beverages. Coffee fanatics also apply this treatment to coffee. Bingbok is also called ice distillation. Just as most spirits are purified by distillation, distillation uses the different boiling points of alcohol and water to remove water to extract alcohol with higher purity, while ice distillation takes advantage of the physical property that the freezing point of water is different from that of other substances.

First of all, the milk should be prepared one day in advance. it will take a long time to freeze into ice and then to distill the milk from the ice. When the frozen milk is put into the freezer to thaw the cold distilled milk, 200ml milk can only be purified to produce a little more than half of the "milk essence". The precipitation amount of each milk brand varies with different water content. The rest is the regular latte-making process. The whole cup of coffee has a smooth taste, rich aroma and full cream. it is best for light roasted beans with milk. There is less water, so remember to drink more water after drinking coffee.
