Basic knowledge of Coffee how to operate an American Coffee Pot

The operation method of American coffee pot

The American coffee maker is easy to operate and easy to clean, and it is the first choice for continuous coffee at home and in business.

And now sometimes I buy home appliances and send coffee pots like this.

Even coffee farmers in coffee producing areas use American coffee pots as their main brewing utensils.

The use of American coffee maker is very simple.

1. Fill water into the water tank

two。 Put the filter paper on the filter bucket (some machines have a filter screen, whether you can put the filter paper or not.)

3. Put in coffee powder

4. turn on

5. Let the coffee drip slowly to the amount you want (usually several cups are marked on the glass pot of the American coffee maker)

6. Enjoy this cup of coffee

After looking at these six steps, you may wonder, "is it really that easy to make a cup of coffee?"

The answer is yes. And even if the method is so simple, you can still play with the American coffee maker.

The following suggestions are made:

1. The ratio of coffee powder to water

In general, an American coffee maker comes with a coffee spoon, which is designed with one spoonful of coffee powder and one spoonful of water. You can cook it according to this proportion first. If you want to drink a little stronger, add more coffee powder, and if you want to drink something light, add less.

Give it a try, so you can find the proportion you like.

two。 The thickness of coffee powder

The thickness of the coffee powder will affect the time for the water to stay in the coffee powder, the thinner is longer, and the thicker is shorter. In addition to the thickness will change, the taste of coffee will also be different. If you have a bean grinder on hand, you can experiment with this.

3. The way you put the coffee powder.

When putting coffee powder into the filter, you can do it in three ways.

a. Knock the coffee powder flat

b. Let the coffee powder form a hill.

c. Dig a hole in the powder layer

The coffee made in all three ways is different, you can try all of them.

4. Soaking time

In addition to the two methods mentioned above, you can also control the soaking time by turning off the switch and stopping the water supply. You can turn on and off the water supply at the beginning and turn off the switch when the coffee drips out. Wait for 20 to 30 seconds (you can adjust the waiting time by yourself), then turn on the switch and let it finish. So control the soaking time.

5. The change of coffee beans

When buying beans, don't hesitate to ask the bean merchant about the date on which the beans you buy will be baked. Beans change every day for two weeks from the day they are baked at room temperature. If you observe the changes of coffee carefully, you will find that coffee is really an interesting drink.

6. Drink coffee

When you get the coffee that the American coffee pot has just brewed for you, try a little black coffee first. See what the original taste is, and if you have friends to drink with you, you can discuss the taste of this cup of coffee together. If you can accept the taste of this black coffee, you might as well drink it directly. When the coffee is a little colder and cold to room temperature, it will change. If you find black coffee unacceptable, you might consider drinking it lighter, or generously add sugar and cream. After all, this cup is your coffee.

7. Drink the freshly brewed coffee while it is hot, don't keep it warm, don't heat it again. (generally speaking, American coffee pots have the function of keeping warm, so you can turn off the power after cooking.)

8. Warm the glass pot with hot water before making coffee, which can reduce the appearance of non-good acid.

I hope everyone can have a good cup of coffee.
