What brand of coffee maker can I recommend? The advantages and disadvantages of hand Pot and ordinary Pot

When choosing coffee utensils, open the shopping platform and see many kinds of coffee utensils, which makes it impossible for people to start. For example, although most of the structures are composed of spout, body, handle and lid, different shapes and structures will make the effect of water injection different.

Therefore, it is very important to choose a hand-brewed coffee maker that suits you. In front of the street, let's share with you how to choose a hand coffee maker.

Temperature control and non-temperature control now the first step in choosing a hand coffee pot is to choose temperature control or non-temperature control. The advantage of temperature control is very obvious, ① automatically adjust the temperature at any time; ② has its own heating function, away from the thermometer, convenient; ③ cooking interval can continue to keep warm. At the same time, the defect is also very obvious, because ① has a heating module at the bottom, it will shift the center of gravity of the whole pot down; the same heating module of ② will increase the weight of the whole pot; the price of ③ is about 300 yuan higher than the conventional version (it's not a defect, is it?).

Non-temperature control, that is, conventional hand-flushing pots, there are a wide variety of options, and it is also the basic version of the development of many appliance manufacturers.

If the purpose is to be simple, then you can directly choose the temperature control pot, there are not many types of temperature control pot, the industry is more commonly used is the B brand and F brand. If you choose a non-temperature-controlled regular pot, please continue to see below. The spout is the most important factor affecting the shape of the water column. The types of spouts on the market are roughly divided into thin mouth goose neck, wide mouth goose neck, elephant trunk mouth, flat mouth and olecranon, which have great influence on the difficulty of water outlet and operation space. The difference in the size of the outlet directly affects the thickness of the water column. For example, the fine-mouth kettle is characterized by easy to use and easy to control water, but the room for operation is small and large water flow can not be used. It represents the takahiro kettle, which is called "cheating pot", and the spout 4mm, which controls water at will.

The flow control of the wide-mouth pot is relatively difficult, and it takes a period of practice to master the flow, but it has the advantage of being extremely playable. After skillful water control, it can control large water flow and small flow at will, adapt to all kinds of water column requirements for brewing, and even the drip method can be used. On behalf of the Hario stainless steel hand-made pot, which is commonly known as "mine kettle", it is difficult to manipulate and highly playable, so it is suitable for some coffee players who like to challenge the difficulty.

The crane-billed pot is named after the opening side of the whole spout looks like the head of a crane, representing Kalita's got Talent Pot and wave Pot. The spout of the talent pot is long and pointed, a bit like a pelican. The flow of water injection can be controlled very slender or large. The opening of the spout of the Wave pot is wide and short, and the water column is more stable.

Flat-nosed kettle refers to those spout openings tend to be parallel to the horizontal plane, there is no spout diversion design, so it is easy to form a parabola, that is, it is difficult to form a vertical water column. But it is a good instrument to practice water control, as long as you can control this type of pot, other pots are pediatrics in front of you.

The olecranon kettle refers to the diversion design with downward hook in the spout. Basically, the newly designed kettles in the past two or three years have this design element. The advantage of this design is that it makes it easier for users to form a vertical water column when flushing and injecting water. When adding a downward hook to the spout, it also avoids the phenomenon that the water will be countercurrent in a small current.

What's wrong with the body of the kettle? Roughly two aspects, one is the problem of water capacity, the other is to choose "fat" or "thin". Under normal circumstances, the capacity of the hand punch pot is mostly between 0.5 and 1.2L, and the choice of size is considered according to everyone's bearing capacity. The other is the choice of "fat" and "thin", which is actually the problem of the center of gravity. When the center of gravity of the chubby hand punch pot is lower in the state of carrying water, it will be more stable, and of course it will consume more energy. The center of gravity of the tall and thin hand will be on the upper side, and it will float a little when there is not enough water, so it will generally put more water when using the tall and thin hand to flush the pot. There is also a kind of pot called the palace pot, which is similar to the structure of Aladdin's lamp. At present, Qianjie does not know what the advantages of this design are. It may be a retro shape. Please share it with friends who know it.

The grip of each family looks different, and the feel of the grip is different, but almost every family will say that the design of the grip is in line with the human body design and saves effort. This side shows that our hands have a strong ability to adapt.

A good grip design is to make your hands comfortable and better grasp the center of gravity of the kettle when injecting water. to put it simply, it is labor-saving and easy to control. There is nothing wrong with the grip design of the basic new hand punch pot.

Another point is that the choice of hand flushing pot also has a lot to do with the punching method. For example, the traditional Japanese hand flushing pot design is mostly based on the thin and tall pot body and ring handle design, which is in line with their slow cooking habits. Most of the hand pots are made of stainless steel, copper, enamel porcelain, and glass (there should be no candidate for glass). From the point of view of performance, Qianjie is advised to choose copper, which has the best thermal insulation and quality. From the performance-to-price ratio, choose stainless steel, good quality and low price. From an artistic point of view, you can consider the choice of enamel porcelain, appearance bonus, but fragile is really fragile, hot hand is really hot, good-looking is also really good-looking.

The price of the hand pot ranges from 30 yuan to thousands of yuan, but the hand pot is different from the bean grinder. As long as the technology is high, the 30 yuan hand pot can also be made very well, so it is not that the higher the price, the better. When you choose and buy, you can refer to the introduction of the spout and handle mentioned above. However, it is also important to see that there are some exquisite-looking and unusually low-cost hand pots on the online shopping platform, most of which are imitations, which may be 99% similar in appearance, but the details will feel different (but it is also useful). But it may also be a reason to dissuade beginners.
