Making ice drop coffee of Indonesian musk cat in Qianjie

Muscat Coffee (KopiLuwak), Kopi (Indonesian, coffee), Luwak refers to an arboreal wild animal called "civet" by Indonesians.

Kopi Luwak, produced in Indonesia, is one of the most expensive coffee in the world. Indonesia grows a lot of coffee crops, including wild animals called civets, omnivores, pointed mouths and dark gray fur. The favorite food is fresh coffee beans, which are fermented and digested in the body and eventually excreted by cats. Feces are grains of coffee beans and become the most expensive feces in the world. Because the quantity is very rare, so the price is very expensive. Civets are found in Indo-China, India (northeast), Bangladesh, Bhutan, Sikkim, Nepal and Kashmir, but only Sumatran civets, or Indonesian civets, can produce Kopi Luwak.

After processing and baking, Kopi Luwak has become a luxury coffee drink and spread to luxury kingdoms around the world. Local coffee farmers, in pursuit of high profits, bring wild civets home to raise them so that they can produce more Kopi Luwak. However, the Kopi Luwak produced by breeding civets will be much worse in color and taste. Even so, the output of this kind of coffee is still very rare, and it is not affordable for all people who like coffee.

The coffee comes from the excrement of an animal called the civet (commonly known as the civet in Indonesia). Although it comes from smelly poop, it is full of sweetness and a burst of indescribable sweetness. This wild musk cat likes to eat fat and pulpy coffee fruits, but the hard hard nuts (raw beans) are indigestible and are excreted with feces. After being cleaned, they become KopiLuwak coffee raw beans! So many people call it "cat shit" coffee.

The Indonesians found that the coffee beans fermented by the civets' intestines and stomach are particularly thick and mellow, so they collect the civets' feces, sift out the coffee beans and brew them to drink. Because the yield is rare and the fermentation process is unique, the flavor is very different from that of ordinary coffee. Traditionally, coffee fruit is washed or sun-treated to remove the peel, pulp and sheep skin, and finally take out the coffee beans. However, Luwak uses natural fermentation in the body to remove the coffee beans, so it has a special flavor.

1 grind the coffee beans with a 2-3 scale grinder.

2 put the filter screen into the bottom of the extraction bottle.

Pour the coffee powder into the extraction bottle and flatten the coffee powder, remember not to push too hard.

4 place the extraction bottle on top of the collection bottle, and then place the drip plate on top of the extraction bottle.

5 prepare ice cubes and filtered pure water and pour into the water storage ball at the ratio of 1:1.

6 turn on the control switch to wet the surface of coffee powder evenly.

7 adjust throttle valve to about 40-60 drops per minute is the most suitable.
