General knowledge of fine coffee how to brew and make coffee

According to centuries of experience, brewing coffee-water temperature, pressure, coffee powder and water contact time-is an important factor affecting the quality of coffee. Here are several common production methods:

Evellick brewing method (Turkish Lbrik Coffee):

This is a kind of coffee that is concentrated, highly concentrated and with a little aroma. How to make it-heat the copper coffee pot, put an appropriate amount (1 teaspoon per cup) and grind the coffee powder and sugar, then brew it with boiling water. The total contact time is about 1 minute and the pressure is 1 atmosphere.

There are two ways to drink this coffee:

1. Start drinking when the insoluble part is still suspended on the surface.

two。 Wait for precipitation before drinking.

Filtered coffee (Filter Coffee):

1.5 ounces of lightly roasted, coarse ground coffee powder is put into the filter paper, boiled water is slowly injected into and around the center of the coffee, and then returned to the center from around. The ground coffee powder is then dripped into the pot, using about 8 grams of water per cup. The boiling water temperature is 100℃.

Napoletana:

For a type of filtered coffee, put the moderately ground coffee powder (5g / cup) into a filter in a Napoletana pot, cover the filter and place it in a water cooker. After the water boils, the pot is removed and turned upside down. The coffee powder in the 100 ℃ boiling filter drips into the cup (as shown). The contact time between the boiling water and the coffee powder is between 2 minutes and 4 minutes. Napoletana coffee is not very thick, but it is full and round.

Espresso semantic machine brewing type:

Coffee is an extremely unstable liquid and may change its properties at once. This is one of the reasons why the espresso machine (Espresso Machine) was invented. The espresso machine can extract several cups of coffee in a row. The high pressure in the brewing process can emulsify and dissolve the oil and gum in the coffee beans, and the essence of the beans is completely extracted by pressure, making the coffee more concentrated, better taste and flavor.

Siphon:

First teach the coffee powder to put into the upper funnel, then add water into the kettle, then put the funnel mouth tightly into the kettle, and boil the water, when the boiling water rises into the funnel, stir and soak for about 40 seconds to 1 minute, then turn off the alcohol lamp. At this time, when the coffee falls back into the pot, the funnel can be removed and poured out to drink.

Coffee lovers all know that buying good coffee is only the first step in making good coffee. Proper storage, grinding and brewing of coffee can ensure the quality of coffee.

When making coffee, you should pay attention to the following points-

1. Boiling will make coffee bitter, so do not boil coffee, the appropriate brewing degree should be slightly less than 96 ℃.

two。 Coffee can not be reheated, when brewing, you should pay attention to only the amount needed for each time, and it is best to drink it when it is just cooked. The best drinking temperature for coffee is 85 ℃.

3. Water accounts for 98% of a cup of coffee, so it is best to use filtered water to brew coffee, especially not chlorinated water.

4. Do not reuse coffee residues. Brewed coffee grounds leave only an unpleasant bitter taste.

5. Make the correct coffee grinding according to the coffee maker used. Too fine grinding will make the coffee more bitter and it is easier to block the coffee maker. If the grinding is too rough, the coffee will be tasteless. In the case of filter punching, the dripping time of properly ground coffee powder should be 2-4 minutes.

6. Recommended dosage-2 tablespoons round tablespoon coffee powder / 6 ounces of water
