What is individual coffee? What kind of coffee do you mean?

In the process of coffee brewing, if a single kind of coffee bean is used, then the coffee produced by the brew is called "single coffee".

However, because some coffee varieties have obvious deficiencies in taste and style, for example, if they are used alone to make coffee, they will have obvious deficiencies in taste, so people favor other varieties of coffee to make up for their defects. It is common to use a mixture of two or more coffees (such as the famous Mamba Coffee-Mantz + Brazilian Santos), and this combination of two or more different coffees is called "mixed coffee".

PS: in fact, some Blue Mountain Coffee on the market is actually the product of mixed coffee, mixed with some Blue Mountain Coffee or beans similar to Blue Mountain Coffee to make a "mixed Coffee" similar to Blue Mountain coffee.

two。 The method of making hand-made dripping coffee

Hand-made drip coffee, also known as hand-brewed coffee (Mellita), Mellita is a well-known and simple brewing method invented by Mrs. Mellita in West Germany (1873-1950).

Now, with the popularity of drip coffee in the coffee industry in Japan, "coffee paths" have also been developed in Japan. They believe that hand-brewed coffee is not a simple way of brewing. It requires baristas to practice and accumulate experience in order to make a good brewing method of coffee.

3. Tools for the use of hand-made drip coffee

Filter cup

Until today, many styles and materials have been developed for filter cups. The most commonly used filter cups are resin 3-hole filter cups (traditional 2-hole filter cups, traditional 1-hole filter cups and improved 1-hole filter cups), and the materials of filter cups are not limited to resin materials. Ceramic filter cup and copper filter cup are gradually moving towards the mainstream.

The author of the filter cup believes that the thermal conductivity of different materials and the improved wall groove texture can greatly affect the final quality of coffee. But it depends on which material and which shape of the filter cup is the best.

Filter pot

The filter pot is a tool for connecting the filter cup. The selection of the filter pot is made of transparent glass and can withstand hot and cold shrinkage. Of course, the detailed scale mark on the filter pot is also a good helper for baristas to extract accurately.

Filter paper

Different types of filter cups have corresponding filter paper. generally speaking, filter paper is divided into drifting filter paper and non-drifting filter paper. because of the texture of the paper, non-drifting filter paper is often a little more expensive than drifting filter paper, and for health. Because the bleached filter paper in addition to a certain odor (in brewing will affect the taste of coffee) the chemical composition of the fluorescent agent used is also extremely harmful to human health. Therefore, considering the above reasons, it is recommended to choose non-drifting filter paper.

Thin-mouth kettle

A thin-mouth pot is a key to making a good cup of coffee. When choosing a small-mouth pot, it is generally appropriate to choose a slightly larger one, which is more conducive to maintaining the stability of the water temperature. In addition, it is also a key point in the selection of the spout. When choosing, you need to choose a mouth shape that is easier to control the flow to ensure a smooth brewing process.

Thermometer

The thermometer is a necessary tool for drip brewing coffee, because the roasting degree of all kinds of coffee beans is different, so the water temperature that stimulates the characteristics of beans will be slightly different, so the role of thermometers here is self-evident.
