The thing is, when guests push open the door of the front street store and take the first step, they will be attracted by the blackboard next to them. There is nothing special on the blackboard, only the recommendation of new products and the words "iced coffee should be ordered two days in advance" are written on the blackboard.

Therefore, many guests will ask, "is there no ice drop coffee now? do I need to make an appointment?" In fact, as long as the weather is a little hotter, ice drops of coffee will be prepared in front of the street. However, Qianjie generally prepares several types of coffee beans with a wide range of audiences. If you want to specify an iced drop of coffee beans, you need to order them two days in advance. Why two days in advance? If you make an appointment on Toner 0 days and start production on T + 1 days, the production time of ice drops of coffee beans is about 6 hours, but the filtered ice drops of coffee will not be immediately handed to guests to drink in the front street, but the coffee liquid will be put into sealed glass bottles and refrigerated for more than 8 hours. Only after that can you give it to the guests. The time is exactly 2 days. Why can't you drink a fresh drop of iced coffee immediately? Here in front of the street to explain, just dropped ice drop coffee can be drunk immediately, but in the flavor and taste performance is not very good (not bad, refers to not as good as expected). Therefore, very few coffee shops will directly produce iced coffee that has just been filtered.

Generally speaking, after the ice drop coffee is filtered, it will be packed in a bottle and put into the refrigerator to be "cooked". In fact, ripening can be roughly understood as sealed low-temperature fermentation, sealing can avoid the pollution of external bacteria, low temperature can effectively inhibit the reproduction speed of colonies, but also slow down the degree of fermentation to achieve a controllable state.

The freshly filtered iced coffee will be relatively thin in taste, and the flavor is more like the original flavor of coffee beans, which is a bit similar to ice hand coffee. When the ice drop coffee is sealed and cooked in the refrigerator for 8 hours, the taste of the ice drop coffee will be cleaner, mellow and full-bodied, and there will be a sweet and full-bodied fermented feeling, which some people say is "ice drop".

Of course, the fermentation process of ice drop coffee is uninterruptible, that is to say, the longer the ice drop is placed, the stronger the degree of fermentation will be. of course, ice drop coffee is not the heavier the fermented taste, the better. And frequently open the bottle cap containing ice drops of coffee, but also easy to let outside bacteria invade, for a long time, will make the coffee deteriorate, also can not drink. Therefore, ice drop coffee also has a drinking period. Generally speaking, ice drop coffee is safer to store in the refrigerator for 5 days, and ice drop coffee more than 5 days is prone to deteriorate taste such as spoilage. On the other hand, Qianjie will only sell ice-drop coffee within three days, although the ice-drop coffee will not necessarily go bad or bad after more than three days, but for the sake of flavor experience and health and safety, the appreciation period of ice-drop coffee made in Qianjie is set at three days.

Next, Qianjie recommends several coffee beans that are very suitable for making cold coffee.

Ethiopian inflorescence if you like fresh coffee, then this coffee bean must be suitable for you! In fact, this coffee bean also has a lot of history. It is the champion of the TOH washing group in 2020 and is produced in Wulaga, the sub-production area of Gucci. Qianjie often uses this bean to make iced coffee. 60g coffee powder drips out 600ml coffee liquid in about 6 hours, then drink it in the refrigerator and ferment for 12 hours, add 50g ice to the cup, and then pour 200ml coffee liquid.

There is a hint of nectar aroma and ice drop fermentation aroma, tasting is obvious citrus, grapefruit acidity, honey sweetness and green tea tail, fresh and comfortable. Kenya Asaria Kenya coffee beans are also very suitable for making iced coffee such as ice drop cold extract. Kenyan coffee benefits from excellent sour coffee varieties (SL28, SL34) and its unique K72 water washing treatment, which makes the coffee sour bright and solid, with a round taste. The ice drop coffee produced is a completely different experience compared with Ethiopian coffee beans.

The Kenyan Asaria coffee beans on the front street come from a honey processing plant in the Sika region. Qianjie uses this coffee bean to make ice drop coffee taste very similar to sour plum soup, solid plum, small tomato acidity, with caramel sweetness, smooth and full taste. Add two ice cubes to relieve the summer heat.

Honduras Shirley is one of the most commonly used coffee beans in front of the street to make iced coffee. On the basis of washing, this coffee bean is fermented in a whisky barrel, so it can taste a very strong Sherry aroma in the coffee.

The ice drop coffee made from sherry beans in the front street has a very strong flavor of vanilla cream, sherry and dark chocolate, which is the richest coffee beans shared in the front street. In addition, Shirley coffee beans with other coffee beans to make ice drop coffee will also have a good effect. For example, Shirley coffee beans and sun Yega Chevy coffee beans at 1:1, can make the coffee in addition to retain the strong aroma, but also add sweetness. Another example is Qianjie's popular ice drop recipe, Shirley, paired with Beethoven coffee beans at 1:1 to produce a flavor of sherry, refreshing citrus fruit and full vanilla cream.
