French lazy coffee-French press

Source:

This simple method of coffee comes from France, a country that is equally simple and romantic.

Practice:

The first step is to prepare a high-quality French press and grind 18g coffee powder (for two).

The second step is to put the coffee powder into the kettle.

The third step is to pour the water of 86-92 degrees (some people here like the high temperature, but I like the low temperature, so that the coffee will not have a strong coke flavor, I think the coffee taste is more pure) into the French kettle. If the coffee powder is fresh, you can see it tumbling up and down and releasing a lot of carbon dioxide, with a layer of golden oil floating on the surface (gray indicates that the coffee is no longer fresh).

The fourth step is about 2-4 minutes later (this time is controlled by the individual, the time is long, the bitter taste is heavier, on the contrary, the sour taste is heavier, the coffee is lighter, this time is also related to the coffee grinding degree, the coarse grain time is longer, and the reverse time is shorter). Press the coffee with a filter, and the action must be light and slow, otherwise the coffee will be mixed with a lot of fine coffee powder.

After the fifth step is completely pressed, pour the coffee into the already warm coffee cup.

The sixth step is to add sugar, milk, or black coffee, as you like.

Features:

Pure taste, easy to operate, can artificially control the quality of coffee, but there will be residual fine powder in the coffee pot.

TIPS:

1. Coffee powder should be slightly thicker and have the granular feel of white granulated sugar.

two。 When soaking, the coffee can be gently pressed down with a strainer to make it completely immersed in water.

3. The water temperature should not be too high or too low. The water in the water dispenser is 95 degrees. Take the water out of the water dispenser into the pot and let it sit for one minute.

4. 2-4 16g-32g/160ml-320ml water coffee is best made

Key points of equipment purchase:

1. The kettle body has good craftsmanship. Needless to say about this.

two。 The filter screen technology should be good, the filter screen should be dense, otherwise there will be a lot of coffee powder mixed in the coffee.

3. The strainer should be perpendicular to the coffee pot. If the strainer and the coffee pot are not perpendicular or unstable, the coffee powder will mix into the coffee through the gap.

4. If the filter screen is to be stable, there are some inferior pressure pots on the market, and the filter screen will be broken after pulling it back and forth a few times. The whole pot becomes a water cup.

American leisurely-American trickling

Source:

In fact, the American drip filter pot comes from the ancient coffee drip brewing method, which was a pure manual method that only needed to make fake + bag + small mouth pot. It was described as "when 91 ℃ of water came into contact with coffee powder, the soul of coffee began to awaken." The air containing the smell of coffee begins to pervade, and the water flows on the coffee, drawing concentric circles one after another. You can look forward to a good cup of coffee from the rhythm of the current dancing with coffee powder. "

It can be said that the American drip filter comes from the most classic method of dripping coffee by hand, and there is no essential difference in taste. They have the common characteristic of brewed coffee, which is clear and sweet.

Practice:

American trickling filter pot is generally divided into three main parts, 1. Powder cartridge 2. Coffee pot 3. Water tank.

The first step is to prepare the drip filter and grind the coffee powder finely / finely. About 8g of coffee powder per person.

The second step is to take out the coffee powder compartment and add the coffee powder to the funnel of the coffee powder compartment. Some drip coffee comes with a fine filter, while others don't. I think it's best to put a layer of filter paper on it whether you bring it or not, so as to make your coffee cleaner.

The third step is to measure the water in the coffee pot (the one that comes with the drip filter) and pour it into the tank. Here, I suggest measuring more half-person water, because the coffee powder itself will absorb some of it, and the actual flow into your coffee pot will be slightly less than what you put in the tank.

Step 4: put the coffee pot on the heating base. Turn on the switch, listen to the sound of "bone busying, bone busying", and wait for the appearance of good coffee.

Step 5 wait for the coffee to flow into the coffee pot and take it out. Enjoy your coffee. Control for a while, make sure the flow is done, and then take it out so that the coffee doesn't drip on the heating base.

Features:

Clear, clean, good coffee. It is extremely easy to do. I'm just a little depressed when I wash the pot. There are more parts.

TIPS:

1. If you think the coffee in the drip filter is light, there are two ways. The first is to grind it more finely. Second, turn off the switch when you just spray water, and then turn it on for dozens of seconds. Similar to the traditional steaming method of trickling.

two。 If you are still not satisfied, see if the coffee pot you chose is not the right size? Generally speaking, a coffee pot for 6 people is best for 2-4 people. For 10 people, it is best for 5-8 people, otherwise the coffee powder is too small in the funnel. A lot of water flows down from the side, causing the coffee to be light and tasteless, while too much coffee will cause excessive extraction and bitterness.

Key points of equipment purchase:

The powder cartridge had better be disassembled and cleaned separately.

Those with a filter are better than those without a filter, and you can continue to use the filter paper if you run out of it.

Choose a coffee pot of the right size according to the amount you often brew.

If you don't clean it up in time. Cleaning up afterwards will be a very tiresome thing.

Try to keep the brewing temperature below 95 degrees, otherwise it will scald the coffee (the finer the grinding, the more obvious).
