Siphon coffee maker

Introduction: siphon pot (Syphon), commonly known as "glass ball" or "siphon", is a simple and easy-to-use coffee brewing method, and it is also one of the most popular coffee brewing methods in cafes. Although the siphon pot has the nickname of "plug wind type", it has nothing to do with the siphon principle, but uses water heating to produce water vapor, causing thermal expansion and cold contraction, pushing the hot water from the lower sphere to the upper pot, and then sucking back the water from the upper pot after the lower pot cools. I made a cup of pure coffee.

When brewing coffee in a siphon coffee pot, we should pay attention to several points: water quantity, water quality, heat, coffee powder dosage, thickness, stirring, time.

Step 1, pour hot water into the ball under the glass.

When boiling one cup, add 200 ml of water under the ball, 175 ml when not pouring bottom water, and 350 ml when boiling two cups. After pouring water, wipe the ball under the glass with a dishcloth, otherwise it is easy to break the glass.

Step 2, load the filter into the ball.

Take the filter out of the water and press it dry, hook the filter hook to the bottom of the ball, and then use the adjusting rod to adjust the position of the filter to the middle position.

Step 3, after the water boils, insert the upper ball into the lower ball.

Turn it into a small fire, carefully tilt the ball on the glass into the lower ball, and make sure that the water will not roll too much and spray out, press the ball on the glass slightly straight down and rotate at the same time.

Step 4, add coffee powder after the water rises by half, start stirring, and start timing after stirring.

The amount of each cup is 15 grams, and start the first time of stirring, do not stir around the circle, should draw 3/4 yuan around, press the powder into the water from top to bottom, so that the forces of two different directions collide with each other, do not stir too long, just spread the coffee powder.

Stir for the second time at step 5 and 25 seconds.

Stir for the third time in step 6 and 55 seconds, and turn off the heat in 60 seconds.

When it takes only 50 seconds to brew a cup of coffee (the second time in 20 seconds and the third time in 45 seconds), pull up the upper ball quickly after turning off the heat, pour out the remaining water from the lower ball, and then insert it back into the upper ball. this action is called inverted bottom water. if you don't want to do this step, the water is only 175 grams.

Step 7, wipe the ball under the glass with a wet and cold towel immediately after turning off the fire.

Step 8. When the coffee liquid is filtered to the end, pull up the ball on the glass and don't let the last coffee flow down.

When using the siphon method to brew coffee, the cleaning and preservation of the filter cloth is quite troublesome. After its first use, the cloth changes from pure white to brown, accumulating fat and protein that cannot be completely removed. Contact with the air will produce a disgusting stench, seriously affecting the taste of coffee.

Belgian royal coffee pot

Although its operating principle is the same as siphon coffee, it is very simple!

Step 1: add the required amount of water to the metal pot, share about 350CC for two, and cover tightly.

Step 2, put about 30g of coffee powder into a glass pot at the other end.

Step 3, lift the metal pot, open the lid of the alcohol lamp, jam the alcohol lamp cover with the metal pot, and light the alcohol lamp.

Step 4, when the water is heated, the hot water flows into the glass pot along with the siphon to come into contact with the coffee powder. Once the water in the metal pot becomes less and less, the weight becomes lighter and lighter, finally the alcohol lamp lid bounces off, and the metal pot is no longer heated and cooled. The coffee is separated from the coffee grounds through a filter at one end of the siphon, and the water is slowly sucked back from the glass pot.

Mocha coffee maker

High pressure, that is, Italian style, originally refers to a high-pressure and rapid method of brewing coffee, and then the coffee brewed in this way is also called mocha coffee. When brewing coffee in this way, the ground soft powder of the same size is first compacted with a filler. The coffee bean powder in the filter must be strong and tight to form a cake-shaped coffee block to resist the hot water pressure of 8~9bar when brewing. Hot water under strong pressure, looking for a way to soak the coffee block, when the coffee block is tightly packed, each coffee bean powder can be extracted evenly by hot water and injected into the cup completely. instantly get a small cup of Italian espresso with rich and aromatic taste, whether the pressure and resistance can achieve a balanced symmetry, is an indispensable important factor to brew a cup of thick and delicious mocha coffee.

As the mocha coffee is under the pressure of 8~9bar, forcing the hot water to pass through the coffee powder quickly, the extraction time of each cup of coffee only takes about 25 to 30 seconds, saving a lot of time and cost, because the time for water to pass through the coffee powder is very short, so the grinding scale needs to be meticulous and stable.

In order to get good grinding quality, a good bean grinder is indispensable, because it is only possible to get a good cup of coffee by using a bean grinder with fast cutting, slow temperature rise, uniform fine density and fresh coffee beans.

A good cup of mocha coffee should be very strong but not too bitter. With milk and milk foam, you can get a cup of fragrant milk coffee. Mellow mocha coffee and fine milk foam attract the majority of consumers in a short time. Created a booming coffee market!

In the average family, the more economical choice is the mocha pot, and its quite personalized shape is beautiful and does not take up space, so it is also very popular. In the early days, the material was mostly made of aluminum, but now it is mostly made of stainless steel, which is more harmless to the human body.

Step 1, select Espresso-specific coffee beans, which need to be ground more finely than American coffee, but not to the extent of the powder, which is still granular. If the coffee is ground too fine, the coffee powder will penetrate the metal filter, leaving residue, and cause excessive extraction and too bitter, too astringent, if the grinding is too coarse, the hot water passes through the coffee too quickly and the extraction is not enough.

Step 2. Put an appropriate amount of hot water at the bottom of the mocha pot (usually the amount of a cup of Espresso will not exceed 60 grams).

Step 3, put the coffee powder in the middle of the mocha pot, in a funnel-shaped container, the dosage of each cup is about 8 or 9 g, spread the coffee powder flat, squeeze it slightly, but do not press it too closely, and then put it into the pot.

Step 4: tie the upper seat of the mocha pot to the lower seat completely to ensure that the water does not ooze from the middle when boiling, and then heat the mocha pot from the bottom, which you can hold by hand or on a special shelf, which is heated by an alcohol lamp or gas stove until the water boils and flows to the upper seat.

French filter coffee maker

Introduce: a kind of simple brewing apparatus which originated in France about 1850 is composed of a heat-resistant glass bottle and a metal filter with a pressure bar. At first, it was mostly used to brew black tea, so it is also called tea maker. The principle of using the pressure pot to make coffee: the essence of coffee is released by soaking and stewing through the full contact between water and coffee powder.

Pour the coffee powder in, add hot water, and filter the coffee after 5 minutes. It's very convenient.

Italian coffee maker

Introduce: brew a cup of perfect Italian extra strong (Espresso) or cappuccino (Cappuccino) coffee, all need the help of special coffee machine to complete. And the machine that makes this coffee is the espresso machine. The machine uses 9 atmospheric pressure and 90 degrees Celsius steam to rapidly extract 30 milliliters of strong coffee liquid in a short time of 24 seconds.

Features: Italian coffee machine can be divided into semi-automatic and fully automatic. To put it simply, a semi-automatic coffee machine is an Italian coffee machine that needs to be ground and pressed by itself. The quality of the coffee will change depending on the person who operates it. The full automaton is completed automatically from grinding to coffee, and the quality of each cup is more balanced, but the taste is slightly lower than that of the semi-automatic Italian coffee machine.

Palate: with the cohesion of fragrance and taste, caffeine intake is greatly reduced.
