How about coffee? "make" delicious coffee at home.

First, let's talk about what it means to "make" coffee. Boiling-Put something in water and boil it with a torch. But the "boil" of brewing coffee is the process of "washing" the taste of coffee with 92-96 degree water. Many people misunderstand this word. If you really put coffee into the water to "boil", then you get a drink will no longer be a cup of coffee, but a cup of burnt bitter water (because the temperature of the water has reached 96 degrees above), the temperature above 96 degrees can destroy the oil in the coffee, taste and astringent.

Making coffee at home requires attention to a few things:

1。The fineness of the coffee is determined by the coffee equipment you choose. Because different coffee making methods require different grinding fineness

2。Use 92-96 degree water.

3。Different cooking methods require different cooking times

Use a small household coffee machine-coffee is filtered through a paper or gold filter

1. Use of small funnel: Put a piece of filter paper inside the funnel and put a cup of coffee powder (8-10) into the filter paper pocket. (Avoid coffee entering the interlayer between the filter paper and the funnel wall) First wet the coffee powder with water at the right temperature, and add water later (water should be added slowly to avoid the water level being higher than the filter paper so that the coffee grounds are washed into the coffee) until a good cup of coffee.

2. Electric drip coffee machine: preheat the coffee machine before brewing coffee every day, add half a pot of water in the sink, and turn on the power supply; first, top out the fresh water inside the machine, second, clean the boiler and various pipes of the brewing system, third, clean the coffee brewing funnel, and fourth, preheat the coffee pot. Put a matching filter paper in the funnel of the coffee machine, put 7-9 grams of coffee powder into the filter paper according to each cup (be careful that the coffee powder enters the interlayer between the filter paper and the funnel wall), and close the funnel door. Press 175 ml per cup to add to the sink and turn on the power.

Coffee powder fineness: through filter paper or pot sieve: medium

Coffee brewer French Press Coffee

This is a traditional infusion method, in which the ground coffee and brewed coffee liquid are placed in a container. This method allows you to taste the advantages and disadvantages of coffee.

Practice: The coffee powder matching the thickness of the press pot is pressed (8? One cup of coffee is put into the pot, but it cannot exceed the limit of the coffee pot. Pour the water at 91-96 degrees Celsius into the pot until the top of the metal frame outside the coffee pot, put the filter rod, soak for 3 minutes and push the filter to the bottom. A pot of good coffee is cooked.

Avoid problems:

First, the choice of coffee pot: according to the current coffee culture atmosphere is slowly developing, the coffee brewing equipment market is not very sound, when buying, we must pay attention to the coffee pot glass thickness is uniform, the cup barrel is vertical, the caliber is the same, and the outer metal shelf should be strong and have a certain hardness.

Second, water temperature: too high water temperature will deteriorate the coffee oil quality, make coffee bitter, too low water temperature can not boil the taste of coffee will be sour and astringent. So the normal water temperature is between 91 and 96 degrees Celsius.

Third, coffee powder grinding thickness: This is a steeping boiling method, it takes 3 minutes to soak, so coffee powder should be coarse.

Fourth, downward pressure: need to be careful to make this action, press the pressure rod with the palm of your hand, vertically and the bottom of the pot downward uniform straight force. Remember to apply force evenly, too much force will make the coffee pot burst. Fifth, coffee powder can not be boiled for the second time: the standard first time to cook, cook delicious coffee, the second time is not good to drink water. The brewing of any kind of coffee involves washing out the flavor (organic and inorganic substances soluble and insoluble in water) of the coffee with water for a second time.

Coffee powder thickness: coarse type.

Italian Moka Pot Home Espresso (also known as "espresso on stove")Moka Pot Espresso

Add the coffee basically to the top of the bittern cup, but squeeze it gently. There should be some space at the top of the bittern cup, because coffee will expand after soaking. Cook over medium heat until you hear the water sizzle. Remove the pot and serve coffee.

Coffee powder thickness: Italian style home espresso coffee: medium to fine.

Italian espresso, machine made Italian Espresso

Add seven grams of coffee to the marinade cup and press it gently, leaving a gap at the top because coffee expands when soaked in water. Add water and observe the color of coffee oil (Crema) after it comes out of the coffee maker. When the coffee oil begins to turn from golden brown to white, stop adding water. The entire process takes 22 to 28 seconds. Remember that real espresso is a very small cup of coffee (forty to fifty milliliters or 1.5 ounces). Coffee should start flowing after five seconds. It should flow like hot honey at the bottom of the coffee spoon. If it takes too long to start flowing, try not pressing the coffee too hard, or switch to coarser particles. If the coffee runs out too fast, compact it a bit more or switch to finer particles.

Coffee powder fineness: Italian espresso coffee: fine.

Italian coffee Cappuccino

The spirit of Italian frothy coffee comes from Italian espresso coffee. When espresso coffee is done, frothy coffee will also be good to drink. If espresso coffee is not standard, frothy coffee will also be affected. There are three steps to preparing a good frothy coffee.

The first step is to prepare espresso coffee as described above. Espresso should make up one-third of the drink (not one-third of the cup because the cup has an empty capacity).

The second step is to add one-third of the hot milk (it should be the same amount as the espresso).

The third step is to add another third of the foam.

Coffee powder thickness: no powder, direct use has been done with strong coffee.

Turkish Coffee is perhaps the most difficult coffee to brew. Real Turkish coffee can only be obtained through a complicated procedure. Each cup of coffee requires two tablespoons of coffee and one teaspoon of sugar (if needed). (You should use a small cup to drink Turkish coffee). Add coffee and sugar to the Turkish coffee pot "Ibrik"(Jezva) Your boy measures the water and adds as many cups of water as he needs. The coffeepot should only be half filled because water bubbles up a lot when it's boiling. When the coffee boils, remove the coffee pot from the fire to make the foam disappear. Repeat the above procedure twice, then slowly add coffee to the cup. If you do it carefully, most coffee particles should stay in the coffee pot. A true connoisseur of Turkish coffee can add a bit of foam to each guest's cup, but it can also be done with a spoon.

Did you know that two-thirds of coffee drinkers drink Turkish coffee (or Greek coffee, depending on where you're from)?

Degree of coffee powder fineness: superfine.
