Which do you prefer, manning or espresso? The difference between Mantenin coffee beans and Italian coffee beans

Manning is a kind of coffee from Sumatra, Indonesia, which is a single coffee bean. It is usually used for hand brewing coffee. It has a rich aroma and a mellow taste. Espresso refers to the use of an Italian coffee machine for pressurized extraction to get a strong espresso liquid with a strong taste.

In recent years, with the popularity of fast-paced espresso culture, coffee shops of various styles have spread all over the country. It takes only two minutes to brew a small portion of coffee with rich texture and strong flavor, which is loved by many young people. Many friends also want to buy appliances and make them at home. This article on Qianjie will talk about the difference between espresso and hand-brewed coffee in coffee shops.

Espresso refers to espresso (Espresso), which is extracted by a semi-automatic / fully automatic espresso machine with a thick layer of fat. With its popularity, people around the country use Espresso as a base to make American coffee, latte, mocha and other popular coffee according to local tastes.

When we extract an espresso, because espresso is extracted in a very short period of time, we use finer ground coffee powder, which pressurizes nearly boiling hot water through the compact coffee pressed powder to quickly extract the soluble substances in the coffee. While hand-brewed coffee belongs to follicular coffee, under normal temperature and pressure, we need to inject high-temperature hot water into the coffee powder to absorb it for a longer time to release the soluble aroma substances in the coffee.

Due to the use of pressure extraction, espresso brings together a variety of flavors in the coffee, showing a strong taste, so people will dilute it with water or milk before drinking. On the other hand, the hand-brewed coffee takes a short soaking time and uses more water. The coffee liquid tastes fresh and elegant and is usually drunk directly after brewing.

Italian coffee beans and hand-made single beans

Due to the different extraction forms of espresso and hand-brewed coffee, the coffee beans used should vary according to their characteristics. Imagine that when the same light-roasted single coffee bean is used, the hand-made coffee will show the sweet and sour aroma of flowers and fruits, while the espresso extracted by pressure will show a strong sour taste. As a result, coffee beans used for Italian concentrate will use a deeper baking degree, producing more caramel to balance the taste of espresso.

The so-called Italian blend coffee Espresso Blend is the coffee beans roasted by roasters from different places and different flavors (or roasted separately and mixed in proportion) to make espresso with rich flavor and balanced taste. For example, the espresso used in Qianjie store is made by using whisky barrel fermented Honduran Shirley and sun-tanned Ethiopian red cherries at 7:3. Espresso extracted is rich in oil, with obvious whisky aroma and soft berry acidity, rich aroma and balanced taste.

With the continuous emphasis on the concept of boutique coffee, the flavor of the producing area has also become the pursuit of many coffee people. at present, many stores use high-quality individual coffee as the product of Italian coffee, which is our common SOE. As Qianjie said, if you want to extract espresso to show the flavor of the region, but also to balance the taste, then you need to adjust the baking curve, otherwise the flavor of the region will be meaningless. If we make espresso at home, Qianjie suggests using espresso beans, or medium-and deep-roasted coffee beans, which will help us to make the extraction more stable.

Recommendation of individual coffee beans suitable for hand brewing

If you are a novice coffee novice, Qianjie suggests starting with the classic coffee producing area flavor. Qianjie featured a number of classic coffee producing areas, covering different coffee varieties, and launched a 100-gram rations bean series. The food rations in Qianjie are the "facade" of the major producing areas, which can identify the basic flavors of the major producing areas, such as jasmine, citric acid, and the herbal flavor of Manning coffee treated with wet planing. Brazilian cream, chocolate flavor and so on.

Yega Xuefei coffee from Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee, is different from the traditional way of exposure. Yega Xuefei uses water washing treatment, which greatly reduces the defect rate of coffee and brings fresh flower fragrance and bright acidity. Because the coffee flavor is unique, it has become the "white moonlight" in the hearts of many people.

Manning Coffee, as a classic full-bodied coffee in hand-made items, can be said to be enduring. The humid and hot environment in Indonesia created the birth of a unique wet planing method, and the sheep skin wrapped in raw beans was "forcibly" planed when the raw beans were not completely dry, so the raw beans completed the final drying in a "naked" state, thus absorbing moisture from the air. Coffee beans have a dull aroma of wood, herbs and spices. After baking, it shows the mellow thickness of dark chocolate and nuts, with the unique taste of pine and herbs.

As the largest coffee producer in the world, Brazil's classic creamy and nutty flavors have contributed to the mellow taste of Italian coffee. This rations beans, selected from Minas Gerais, is a red bourbon variety. The half-sun method reduces the miscellaneous flavor of the coffee and enhances the fruity aroma and sweetness of the coffee.

Colombian coffee, famous for its soft taste and rich nut chocolate, chooses Kaddura, a high-quality variety from Huilan, a well-known producing area. The unique microclimate makes the coffee rich in aroma. Huilan food beans treated with water have chocolate, caramel and supple pleasant fruit acid.

Recommendation of Italian coffee beans

The taste of espresso is determined by the coffee beans used. In order to balance the coffee flavor and make the taste more mellow, most stores choose medium-to-deep roasted coffee beans. Qianjie through continuous in-depth understanding of the flavor characteristics of coffee beans in different producing areas, using different proportions to let the characteristics of coffee beans to learn from each other to balance the flavor of espresso. After many experiments and comparison, Qianjie launched a total of four Italian-style coffee beans on the shelves.
