Since water can no longer satisfy coffee players' curiosity to make coffee, players have developed a lot of strange extraction media. Among them, milk is one of the playable objects. So a curious friend came to ask Qianjie. What happens when you make coffee with milk.

Can I make coffee with milk?

If it is hand-brewed coffee, Qianjie thinks it is not feasible, because the saturation of milk itself is not high, and the intensity of extraction is much worse than that of water. The second point is that milk can't be heated to a high temperature. In general, when milk is heated to more than 70 degrees, the protein will change. So it's fun to use it instead of water to make coffee.

What if you soak the coffee powder with milk to make a cold milk coffee?

This might work. Unlike hand flushing, cold bubbles do not need too high temperature, so that the milk will not go bad. And soaking is different from dripping filtration, the extraction efficiency of milk is low, but it can be made up by time.

It's not too late. I'll check it out right away. For the preference of coffee beans, Qianjie will choose medium-and deep-roasted coffee beans, because the taste of milk is relatively rich and full, like we very much like light-roasted coffee beans with flower and fruit flavor, it is easy to be covered by the taste of milk. So you can choose some coffee beans with dark chocolate, caramel and maple syrup to make milk extract coffee.

The front street uses sunflower sunflower coffee, which is also the Italian coffee beans used by Qianjie shops. its flavor is described as vanilla cream, sherry, brown sugar and chocolate. Qianjie hopes that the extracted milk curry will be more fragrant, so the milk uses bright fresh pasture milk with full milk flavor, and the extraction ratio is smaller than the original cold extraction ratio, about 1 part of coffee powder mixed with 8 parts of milk.

The specific operation of Qianjie is like this: first grind 25 grams of coffee beans into the size of fine granulated sugar, with a pass rate of 85% with No. 20 sieve. It is very important to put the ground coffee powder into a filter bag. Because Qianjie is like making cold coffee for the first time, the coffee powder is poured into the milk. As a result, the milk is filtered very slowly. So in order to save trouble, use a filter bag to wrap the coffee powder, which will save the bad steps.

Put the filter bag of coffee powder into the bottle and pour it into 200ml's fresh milk. You can shake it or use a tool to soak the coffee powder thoroughly. Finally, close the lid to check the tightness and store it in the refrigerator at low temperature. This step is also very important because milk is a very perishable drink, which will deteriorate quickly if it is not tightly sealed or kept at a low temperature.

Soak in the refrigerator for 12 hours at a low temperature. It is not recommended to soak in the front street for too long, because you are still afraid that the milk will deteriorate. If you want to improve the extraction effect, you can roll the filter bag during soaking.

After soaking, you can pull out the filter bag or pour out the milk coffee directly. By observing the color, it is similar to the color of iced latte and smells like sherry and lactose. After a sip, the smell of chocolate milk flooded into my mind. The overall concentration is moderate.
