How to bake coffee beans by hand? Basic knowledge of roasting coffee beans

When it comes to fried peel, the layman always thinks it is very difficult. But as long as you can really grasp a few key points, it will not be very difficult. Here we will introduce you to the method of "manual frying" using hand strainer.

First, prepare 100 grams of raw coffee beans, if there are broken coffee beans, remove them. Then put the raw coffee beans in the filter, close the lid, open the gas to medium fire, hold the filter about 20-30 centimeters above the gas, swing it in a round way, and bake patiently.

At the beginning, it may not be easy, but after you get used to it, you can skillfully increase or decrease the degree of frying according to your own preference.

In addition to the filter with handle is the most suitable, it can also be a thick-bottomed wok or pottery (plain clay pottery). However, because it is difficult to control after the fire, attention should be paid to avoid burning coffee beans. In addition, simple manual ovens and electric ovens can also be used for frying.

After frying, once again confirm whether there are defective beans or charred coffee beans, if so, remove them by hand, bottle them or fill them for a day or two.

Hand filter baking tool

Fried coffee beans can be stored at room temperature if they are to be used up within a week; if not, the best way to preserve them is to keep them sealed in the refrigerator. Each time you use it, just take out the necessary amount and grind it into pieces. It takes about two weeks to maintain the inherent flavor of coffee beans.

A filter with a handle can be bought at a hardware store or a coffee shop. The raw coffee beans to be prepared are more suitable for beginners in Central and South America (Peru, Cuba, Mexico, Brazil, etc.). Pick out the defective beans by hand.

Put the beans into a filter with a handle and close the lid. Keep a certain amount of heat on medium heat, turn it into a circle and swing repeatedly, making the water evaporate.

Hand strainer baking

Carefully let the fire bake to every corner of the strainer, and be careful not to scorch the beans, but concentrate on swinging the strainer. After water evaporates, pay attention to smoke, color, fragrance and sound.

When the bursting sound of Battles goes off for ten to fifteen minutes, when the sound is still, there will be a second burst that lasts for fifteen to twenty minutes. As the status and types of coffee beans are different, the end can be judged by color and sound.

After pouring into the plate or basket, use the cold air of the fan or hairdryer to cool it quickly. After the fried test, the coffee beans will be reduced, leaving only about 85 grams.

Taste it (cup test) to see if the degree of frying is appropriate. At this time, it is the most tense and happy time. Let's try some delicious coffee made by ourselves.

Note: during roasting, there will be thick smoke and fragrance, and the skin of coffee beans will bounce off everywhere. Therefore, aluminum foil should be covered around the gas stove in advance, and the portable gas stove can also enjoy the fun of frying coffee beans outdoors.
