Siphon pot coffee is good to drink Siphon coffee pot history and culture introduction

The appearance of the siphon coffee maker is like seeing the scientific instruments of scientists hundreds of years ago in history books, with a classical flavor, in fact, the siphon coffee maker really has a history of about 200 years.

The basic principle of siphon coffee pot is to make use of the phenomenon of vacuum siphon, and according to literature, the vacuum pot made of glass was first invented by S. Leoff in Berlin, Germany in the 1830s.

The glass pot quickly spread throughout Europe, with many different improvements, while the nearly modern upright siphon coffee pot was designed and patented by Madame Vassieux in Lyon, France in 1841.

There is an interesting history in which the great composer Beethoven counted 60 coffee beans a day to cook his morning coffee, and the coffee pot he used was similar to a siphon coffee pot with glass bottles up and down. But Beethoven actually died in Vienna, Austria, in 1827, so the predecessor of the siphon coffee maker may have appeared long before historical records.

In addition, the siphon coffee maker is Syphon in English. Due to the pronunciation, the siphon coffee pot will also be called the Saifeng pot, so when you see the siphon mustache, you will know that it is siphon.

Why is it called Saifeng syphon?

The siphon pot, also known as Saifeng syphon, which originated in Germany, is a method of using the pressure caused by boiling water to help make coffee. The coffee pot is divided into two parts, the middle is connected by a conduit, the water is converted into steam, and the pressure on the water surface increases. So the boiling water enters from the catheter to the top, puts in the coffee powder, and then re-enters the bottom through a filter cloth, and then it is ready to drink.

The flavor of coffee

If the characteristic of hand-brewed coffee is that it can cause the sour taste and aroma of coffee, it has a full flavor and distinct layers. Then the extraction temperature of siphon coffee is higher, and the essence of coffee will be released in a short time, making the coffee more bitter. At the same time, because the flannel filter cloth of the siphon coffee pot does not filter the coffee oil, it makes the siphon coffee taste thicker and round.
