How to make a thick latte with your hands and hanging your ears? Can boiling milk extract coffee?

Some readers submitted a piece of coffee recently, so they wanted to brew it in a different way. Then they found a slightly tricky way-using milk to brew it, but because they had not tried it, they were worried that they would overturn the cart. So, I came to ask if Qianjie was feasible. Qianjie has always been No problem when it comes to helping coffee makers. Without saying much, let's go straight ahead ~

Is it feasible to flush the ears with milk?

In fact, this is not the first time that milk, as the protagonist of coffee extraction, has appeared in an experiment on Qianjie. Last year, we published an article "Is it feasible to make coffee with milk by hand?" It is mentioned that because milk contains too much substances, its extraction ability is difficult to compete with conventional hot water. At the same time, if it is heated until it is hot, the taste will be deteriorated due to the loss of a large amount of protein and lactose. Therefore, it is obviously not feasible to directly apply routine parameters and techniques to flush the ears with milk.

In order to solve the problem of lack of milk extraction ability, Qianjie plans to steam with hot water first, that is, let the coffee powder particles absorb water to help better release flavor substances in the later stage, then heat the milk to 75 ° C, and then divide it into two sections. Inject.

In order to avoid the sour taste or pale taste of the boiled milk coffee, Qianjie still recommends that everyone give priority to the categories marked with moderate and deep baking, such as Qianjie's Bird of Paradise, Queen's Manor, Golden Mantelin, and Qianjie Huilan and other coffees can be better coordinated with hot milk because they have obvious caramelized aroma;

However, if you are sensitive to bitter taste, you would recommend fruit acid hanging ears with a fermentation feeling, such as Qianjie Chinese claw, big navel, strawberry candy, sunflower warm sun combination, etc., because this type of coffee has both candied fruit, fruity, fermented wine and a certain caramelized flavor, suitable for drinking with milk.

What if you use milk to rinse your ears?

First, prepare a long glass and a pack of fresh Qianjie strawberry sugar hanging ear coffee, tear it open and hang it on the edge of the cup (In order to give everyone a more intuitive reference, Qianjie will make this brewing process. Timing and weighing will be added).

In the first paragraph, use hot water at 90~93 ° C to inject the ear bag until half of the filter bag is full (after boiling, turn off the heat, open the lid and then keep it at room temperature for 1 minute). The water volume is about 25g. Pay attention to keep a small water flow as much as possible. If you use a long-necked pot, you can add rings appropriately;

After the coffee liquid has been dropped, start injecting into the second section. Pour hot milk at 75 ° C (which cannot be touched by your hands) into the powder layer until the filter bag is 9 minutes full. When the coffee liquid is about to run dry, you can continue to inject into the next section. From one to 9 minutes full, the total amount of water and milk is 150g.

Visually, the whole cup of coffee has a strong milk tea color. Taking the taste of coffee alone, Qianjie believes that both the intensity and aroma are acceptable. He directly tastes the flavors of strawberry jam, raisins, and cream, whether you drink it directly or add ice., it has a good taste.

However, since the fine powder will expand rapidly after the coffee comes into contact with milk, thus blocking the gap in the filter bag, the flow rate can be seen to slow down significantly during the second extraction process, and the total dripping time is 11 minutes.

In addition, coupled with the preparation time of various raw materials, Qianjie's big navel hanging ear bag took 20 minutes to barely get the milk coffee. Moreover, it also had to clean the tools for heating milk, which was obviously in line with the original intention of hanging the ear-convenience. It's a bit contrary to the direction. Therefore, Qianjie does not recommend this direct injection method for friends who want to quickly make milk coffee with ear bags.

Hanging ears + milk, what else can I do?

Since hanging ears have been developed in China for many years, people have also explored many novel ways to combine milk and it in daily life. There are just two ways here on Qianjie. One is to first use hot water to make a strong black coffee, and then add the appropriate fresh milk according to the proportion. For specific operations, please refer to this article "How to make latte coffee with ear bags?" Here, the front street does not repeat it too much.

The other one is not only more suitable for friends who love iced milk coffee, but the steps are also very simple. As long as you have a coffee bag for hanging ears, a bottle of milk (fresh milk tastes better), and a refrigerator, you can easily achieve "latte" freedom after a nap.

The operation is very simple. After taking out the ear-hanging bag, you don't need to tear it apart. Just peel off the paper shell on the package, and then throw it "naked" into the milk. After tightening the bottle cap, you will shake it up and down vigorously to let the milk soak the inside. Coffee powder. Because it is low-temperature extraction, Qianjie believes that the ratio of coffee to milk does not need to be too strict, as long as it falls between 1:12 and 1:15. For example, here, a 10-gram packet of hanging coffee in Qianjie will add 150ml of fresh milk.

Then, we put the milk soaked in the ear bag into the refrigerator and refrigerated it overnight. Early the next morning (it took about 8 to 12 hours), we could take it out and shake it a few times to pick out the ear bag, and the milk coffee was ready.
