Qianjie-introduction to the grindability of hand-made coffee

The secret of good coffee is extraction. What exactly does this mean? Well, it refers to the process of extracting flavor and aromatic compounds from coffee beans into hot water-and in the process, creating delicious drinks.

However, not all flavors and aromatic compounds are the same. Some will add sweetness to your coffee, some will add bitterness, some will add fruit flavor, and some will add astringency. They are all extracted at different speeds.

The flavor of coffee is extracted in the order of sour, sweet, bitter and astringent. This means that by controlling the degree of extraction, you can control the amount of each substance being extracted, in other words, you can determine the taste of the coffee. This is the basic goal of creating a brewing formula, whether it's Espresso or brewing coffee. The degree of grinding is one of the keys.

Hand punch

Cone, fan, cake

If it is hand-made, I usually choose moderate grinding, which I think will make the flavor of coffee more complete. Of course, I also try to toss about the fine and coarse grinding degree, and I always prefer moderate grinding. So, everyone likes it differently, so you can try and compare it a little bit until you find your favorite style.

Soak

Philharmonic pressure, siphon kettle, French pressure kettle, smart cup, mocha pot, etc.

This kind of immersion extraction utensils, the use of relatively rough grinding will make the coffee taste better, on the other hand, it can avoid fine powder blocking the exit.

The appropriate grinding degree is beneficial to better release the aroma and extract the flavor in the cooking. Different grinding degrees will bring different changes. We can try it on our own on the taste, and we can also adjust the taste through other aspects, such as mixing too fine powder to adjust the taste, while too coarse powder can be adjusted by injecting water many times.

Knowledge: when using the same kind of water, time is the key to adjusting the number of substances.
