How to use siphon to make a good cup of coffee

1. Cooking time-how to know how to handle it

In the case of the siphon pot, the time must be controlled within another 80 seconds, which can of course be adjusted according to your taste. It is recommended that the water boil and stand for 15-20 seconds, and then stir every 15-20 seconds. Turn off the heat immediately after the third stirring and wrap the pot with a wet rag to cool rapidly. I believe you can see the beautiful coffee mound & the thoroughly amber liquid!

two。 Whether coffee powder is freshly ground-is this very important?

Very important! The life of coffee powder is very short, it is best to drink it now. As for the life span of coffee powder, there are many things to say. It's kind of awkward. An hour。 Or one day, no matter for which school, I hope you can grind and cook and drink now. You will know the difference once you try.

3. Stirring time-how to determine

It is recommended to buy a special stopwatch ~ make sure that every coffee powder is soaked when stirring, and remember to act gently.

4. Coffee beans are fresh-how to know how to see if the coffee beans are fresh

It is recommended to buy from coffee merchants who have their own roasted coffee beans. The golden period of coffee beans is within 7 days after baking. Of course, it does not mean that you can't drink coffee within 7 days. As long as the beans are well preserved, they can be kept for several months (raw beans live for several years, roasted beans for months, coffee powder for hours.), the simple discrimination is to look at the date. Smell the aroma (the more fresh, the better, but don't squeeze the packaging, the gas of the noodles is Co2 can help the coffee beans survive, but squeezing the packaging is murder beans.

5. How fine should the coffee beans be ground?

I suggest that the fineness of the siphon pot is like No. 2 coarse sugar, of course, you can adjust it later, the finer the grinding, the shorter the extraction time, otherwise excessive extraction will release bitterness.

The most important thing to buy a siphon pot is the coefficient of expansion of its glass:

1. The lower the expansion coefficient means that it is less affected by thermal expansion and cold shrinkage, and is less likely to break due to the change of cold and heat.

two。 Secondly, attention should be paid to the closeness between the filter and the upper seat, the better the closeness, the less large high-temperature steam bubbles will be produced during cooking.
