Is the world's top coffee rose summer suitable for making Italian latte espresso? What proportion parameters do I need to use to make American coffee with Rose Summer?

White floral fragrance, citrus fruit flavor, and fresh tea feel are the main flavors displayed by traditional rose summer coffee. Since it does not taste like a cup of coffee, the rose summer variety has been sought after by thousands of people since its launch, and has become the coffee "white moonlight" in the hearts of countless people.

Under normal circumstances, we make rose summer coffee by hand, pressing the pot, etc., because this kind of method has a very high fault tolerance rate and can more easily dissolve the excellent flavor of rose summer coffee. But occasionally some friends want to use rose summer to make espresso because they also want to experience the different manifestations of rose summer, such as latte. Therefore, friends often ask Qian Jie when buying rose summer: "Can rose summer be used to make espresso? "

If you put aside the price, rose summer can still be used to make espresso. After all, the only difference between espresso machines and other appliances is the different coffee extraction media. Any coffee can be extracted with it. If you want to use rose summer to make a delicious espresso, such as American style or latte, of course you can, but you need to pay attention to two details when making it, so that the rose summer American style and rose summer latte will be more delicious ~

1. The first thing to pay attention to is to allow coffee to be fully extracted! We cannot extract rose summer exactly according to the extraction parameters used for making espresso. Why? Because most of the coffee beans used by friends to make espresso daily are medium to deep roast, those parameters are mainly formulated around the extraction of medium to deep roast coffee. Usually, the rose summer we buy is medium to light baked, because if the rose summer wants to show excellent floral fragrance, then the baking cannot be too deep.

Because the density of medium-to-deep baked beans is relatively low, the soluble matter in the body is easier to dissolve, so it does not require too much effort to be fully extracted. However, the density of mid-to-lightly roasted rose summer is usually high. In order to completely extract the fragrance and fruit charm of rose summer, we need to use parameters that are more efficient than extracting traditional mid-to-deep-roasted coffee to extract rose summer. Otherwise, the consequence is that it is easy to get a cup of coffee with a very high acidity.

2. Pay attention to the proportion The second detail that needs to be paid attention to is often shared on the street, which is to pay attention to the proportion of coffee and other materials. For example, when making American style, pay attention to the ratio of coffee to water, and when making lattes, pay attention to the ratio of coffee to milk.

The reason is also very simple, because medium-to-light roasted coffee does not have as strong a flavor as medium-to-light roasted coffee, especially those with floral fragrance, washed and fresh taste, such as rose summer. Because their taste is relatively fresh, if other materials are used too much, it will be easy to cover up the taste of the coffee itself. It will become more difficult for us to taste the flowers and fruits from it. Therefore, Qianjie usually recommends that when making espresso with moderately or lightly roasted coffee beans, the proportion should be slightly increased to avoid excessive dilution of the taste and aroma of the coffee. After learning the above two points, it was basically difficult for us to make a cup of Rose Summer espresso that was not good. The remaining problem to face is to ask if your wallet agrees. After all, Rose Summer is not only unique in flavor, but also expensive... But it doesn't matter! Among the Qianjie Bean List, there are some cost-effective rose summer beans that are suitable for making both Italian and hand-brewed coffee. For example, Qianjie Costa Rica·Strawberry Candy, which often appears in Qianjie articles. It is a rose summer match. In addition to rose summer flavors such as white flowers and citrus, it also has sweet scents such as strawberry fudge and raisins. It is very good!

If you plan to make espresso with Rose Summer, you may wish to refer to the extraction parameters used in Qianjie. It should help you avoid taking detours and quickly make a cup of delicious Rose Summer espresso.

Extraction of Rose Summer Espresso The coffee beans used in Qianjie in this demonstration are the Qianjie Costa Rica strawberry sugar rose summer mix mentioned above by Qianjie. When using it to extract espresso, the grinding on Qianjie will be adjusted slightly thinner, allowing the extraction time to be slightly longer, thereby improving the extraction efficiency and increasing the dissolved coffee flavor substances. When making different espresso coffees, the parameters used will be slightly different, as follows: Used to make American espresso: powder amount 18 - 20g, powder-to-liquid ratio 1: 1.1.7, extraction time 30 - 35 seconds.

Since many friends prefer to drink an American cup with lower bitterness, when extracting the concentrate used in American coffee, we can extract less weight and reduce some bitter substances. The flavor of espresso extracted by this parameter is mainly sweet and sour. When mixed with a suitable amount of water at a ratio of 1: 3.5, it becomes American. It will taste sweet and sour flavors of strawberries and citrus, elegant white flowers, and a slight aroma of raisins. It is very fresh.

Conventional concentration/concentration for making lattes: powder amount 18 - 20g, powder-to-liquid ratio 1:2, extraction time 30 - 38 seconds. If you expect to drink a cup of well-balanced espresso, or an espresso to be used to make a latte, then the extract can be slightly heavier and more bitter substances can be extracted to balance the sour taste so that the coffee will not be easily concealed by the taste of milk.

The concentration extracted with this parameter has a very balanced taste! When making lattes, we can mix in the right amount of milk at a ratio of 1:4. The latte made in this way will taste sweet and greasy aromas of strawberry chocolate, butter cookies, and caramel. The taste is silky and mellow, which is very good ~

So the above is all the content shared on Qianjie this time. Interested friends can try it at home. It's really good ~
