Qianjie-introduction to hand-made coffee injection

When brewing hand coffee, it will first go through the steaming stage, the time is about 15 to 30 seconds, let the coffee powder absorb water, the coffee powder that absorbs enough water will expand, and produce another kind of aroma, the longer the steaming time, the stronger the coffee flavor, usually the amount of steaming water is twice that of coffee powder, for example, 30 grams of coffee powder, about pour 60cc water, in order to make the coffee powder absorb enough water.

After stuffy steaming, the action of water injection is carried out. it is generally recommended that beginners use a hand pot with a thin mouth, so that the amount of water injection is not too much and it is not easy to fail; at the beginning of water injection, it is easy to extract coffee, and the ideal time for the whole water injection is about one and a half to two and a half minutes. If you want the coffee to taste thicker, you can slow down.

The first water supply is mainly aimed at the amount of powder that can be seen on the surface, so that the surface can see the amount of powder, so that the surface is evenly covered with water, and this time the amount of water is given moderately or not, we can observe the dripping state at the bottom of the filter cup after giving water. As long as it is not in the shape of a water column, it is acceptable.

The state of expansion varies depending on the length of the exhaust of the particles, and the longer the expansion, the larger the gap, so the time for the second water supply is to add water when the expansion is almost stopped.

The second addition of water should focus on the bottom of the filter cup.

First of all, let the water cover the whole bottom layer, and after completing this action, it also means that all the lower coffee particles that have not eaten the water for the first time can eat the water.

In short: Qianjie is a coffee research hall, happy to share the knowledge about coffee with you, we share unreservedly just to make more friends fall in love with coffee, and there will be three low-discount coffee activities every month. The reason is that Qianjie wants to make more friends drink the best coffee at the lowest price, which has been Qianjie's tenet for 6 years!
