The French style of making coffee in a French press.

Pressure filter is one of the most commonly used methods for French people to make coffee. It is said to have been invented by a French engineer. It can fully show the quality and characteristics of coffee beans. Mr. Mr.Kramer, founder of the European Special Coffee Association and founder of the professional standards for baristas of the European Special Coffee Association, mentioned when talking about the use of French filter pots to make coffee, this kind of coffee pot is widely used in coffee shops and families to make quality coffee drinks.

In China, the French filter press is also known as the tea maker, which is easy to use. In the production process, all factors can be controlled by the producer, as long as properly controlled, you can make a very perfect coffee.

Prepare materials:

1. French filter press (CKJ-300, golden 300CC tea maker)

2. Large handwheel bean grinder (H-D6, for four)

3. Coffee beans (30g, high quality coffee beans)

4. A set of coffee cups and plates

5, 10 grams of coffee spoon

6. Appropriate amount of hot boiled water (the temperature is about 92mi 95 degrees Celsius)

Steps:

1. Carefully remove the top cover of the cup, set it aside, and do the necessary cleaning work.

2. Add the ground coffee powder to the tea maker with a coffee spoon. The amount of coffee used in each cup is about 15 grams.

3. Put it into the filter obliquely and inject hot water of about 95 degrees Celsius at the same time.

4. Cover the top, it is recommended not to wait, but shake the coffee pot for a while, let the coffee powder have full contact with hot water, and then wait for about 3 to 6 minutes. When the coffee powder basically sinks to the bottom of the cup, press the top lid with one hand and slowly lower the filter with the other to let the coffee grounds sink into the bottom of the cup.

5. Pour hot water into the coffee cup to warm the cup, then pour the filtered coffee into the warm cup.

Tips:

1. Try to use a hand bean grinder to make the coffee powder more uniform. It is not necessary to be too fine, the thickness of the powder should be based on the smallest particles that cannot pass through the filter.

2. Pay attention to the water temperature balance during the brewing time of coffee. In 2 to 4 minutes, the water temperature drops very quickly. Therefore, when the temperature is below 20 degrees Celsius, you can warm the kettle appropriately-pour hot water into the tea maker to be used and pour it out after a minute or so. This ensures that the brewing process has a stable water temperature, which will make the coffee taste more perfect.

3. When injecting water, pour it in once, so that the coffee powder and water get full contact, and the taste of the coffee will be more mellow.

4. Due to the different sources of hot water, the water temperature can not be controlled within the ideal range of 92mur95 degrees, so the soaking time will be properly adjusted with the different water temperature. If the water temperature is lower, the soaking time is slightly longer; if the water temperature is higher, the soaking time is slightly shorter. The range of general adjustment is between 3 and 6 minutes. If the water temperature is different, the taste will be different, and it can not be changed by adjusting the soaking time, but the astringency in the coffee can be eliminated after adjustment.

5. The general ratio of water to coffee powder is: 9 to 10 grams of coffee powder per 150 ml. People with heavy taste can appropriately increase the proportion of coffee powder.
