Coffee hanging ear bag brewing detailed operation diagram of hanging ear coffee basic knowledge and brewing matters needing attention

For friends who like to drink black coffee, it is very inconvenient to have a cup of coffee by hand when they are on a business trip or traveling, or when they are at work. Of course, with people's love for coffee is no longer as simple as serving coffee in a coffee shop, it is more about the pursuit of enjoying the brewing process at home.

Hanging-ear coffee seems simple, but still many friends do not know the specific operation process, hanging-ear coffee as a bag of tea soaked in the cup, no wonder the taste is very light. The hanging-ear coffee in the front street is very popular, especially the Yega Xuefei in Ethiopia. It seems that many friends like flower-and-fruit-flavored coffee.

Why is it called "hanging ears"?

The earliest hanging-ear coffee was invented by Yamanaka Industrial Co., Ltd. in 1990. Its design concept originated from the lanyard tea bag. The inventors hope to simulate the hand-made dripping coffee and put the coffee powder into a non-woven filter bag in advance. The paper pieces on both sides of the filter bag can hang the coffee bag in the middle of the cup. Because it is stuck on both sides of the cup like a small ear, so people call it "hanging ear coffee". Since 2002, the Japanese have patented the hanging-ear coffee bag and promoted it to the market, so the convenient and neat design has suddenly become the mainstream of the market.

Hanging-ear coffee is a kind of portable coffee which is ground and sealed in a filter bag. The hanging-ear coffee on the front street is all ground and packaged with fresh coffee beans.

Hanging ears and hand brewing belong to filter extraction, but compared with the operation of hand brewing coffee, hanging ears will be much more convenient and faster. That's why hanging-ear coffee is walking coffee. Hand coffee at least need to prepare: brewing kettle, thermometer, filter cup and filter paper, grinder, chronograph, etc., because the ear is ground in advance, there is no need to be equipped with grinding equipment. The filter bag is usually made of degradable non-woven fabric, and the soluble matter extracted by water from the coffee powder can be oozed through the non-woven fabric, so there is no need to prepare filter paper and filter cup.

The water injection technique, time and proportion of hanging-ear coffee do not need to be controlled as strictly as hand-flushing, but only need to ensure enough hot water and appropriate proportion. But also because of the "casual" operation, the flavor of coffee is often not as rich and changeable as hand-brewed coffee. In addition, the earbag is ground and put into the bag in advance, so the aroma is not as full as the freshly ground coffee, if it is stored for too long and more than a few months, it may produce some woody flavor. Therefore, the Qianjie Association recommends buying coffee beans to be freshly ground in order to drink more delicious coffee.

The steps of brewing coffee in front of the street:

Hanging ear coffee is mostly in small packaging, such as the front street hanging ear bag is 10g / packet of coffee powder, using 1:15 powder water ratio, so need to inject 150g of hot water. Qianjie believes that ear-hanging brewing is very casual, and if you want to drink stronger black coffee, you can reduce the amount of water; if you want to drink lighter black coffee, you can increase the amount of water. As long as you like it.

1. First of all, we need to prepare a cup of coffee container, a sharing pot or a drinking cup, a kettle for water injection.

2. First tear open the sealed package, take out the coffee hanging earbag, and tear open the non-woven pocket along the dotted line above.

3. Pull the two ears apart, pull the whole earbag open, and then hang them on the edge of the cup or sharing pot.

4. First, wet the coffee powder in the first stage and steam for about 10 to 20 seconds. The second stage of small water is injected smoothly until the liquid level is close to full, waiting for the coffee liquid to drop until the coffee liquid runs out.

Pour the last section of water until it is full, wait for the coffee liquid to be filtered, take away the hanging-ear coffee bag, gently shake the coffee, and you can start to enjoy it.

Although the brewing of hanging-ear coffee is very casual, there are small details to pay attention to:

Hanging-ear coffee is also coffee, only the coffee powder ground in advance, but it does not affect the characteristics of different coffee flavor in different coffee producing areas, but the aroma is not so rich and full. In terms of water temperature, we should pay attention to control at 86-93 degrees Celsius. If the water temperature is too low, the extraction efficiency of coffee will be slow, and it is easy to lack of extraction. If you can't increase the water temperature, lengthen the contact time between the coffee powder and the hot water, that is to say, soak a little longer.

The injected water is too fast, the extraction time of coffee powder is short, and the taste of coffee is easy to be light, so it is best to use a steady small flow throughout the whole process to make the extraction of the powder layer more uniform.

Qianjie hanging ear Coffee recommendation

In this season, random earbags are randomly selected from five major producing areas on the front street to make hanging earbags. The eight major producing areas are: Esseyega Chuefei (citrus fruit tone), Indonesia Mantenin (herbal fragrant nuts), Brazil Hillado (nuts and peanuts), Guatemala Vetnam fruit (berry citrus nuts), Honduras Shirley (whisky cream), Colombian cymbidium (black soft acidity), Costa Tarazu / Milasu / Mozart (sweet orange taffy grape dry flavor). Yunnan small grains (brown sugar tea with plum acid).

The classic ears are: Indonesia Mantenin (herbal nutty), Honduran Shirley (whisky), Panamanian butterfly (citrus stick honey), Esseyega Shiffi red cherry (citrus fruit wine), Kenya Asalia (berry tomato notes).

There are five kinds of ears in this season: Esseyega Chuefei (citrus fruit tonality), Indonesia Mantenin (herbal fragrant nuts), Brazil Hilado (nuts and peanuts), Panamanian Pokuet summer ears (citrus oolong tea feeling), Esseria Chaka ears (flower-scented fruit acid).

No matter which type of ear, the ear in front of the street is ground and packaged with fresh coffee beans. As the hanging-ear coffee is ground in advance, compared with hand-brewed coffee, it is naturally not as rich and thick as hand-brewed coffee. However, hanging-ear coffee is the best choice for people who go out or go to work to drink black coffee.

Qianjie coffee brewing suggestion:

The taste of coffee is directly related to the variety of coffee, but we should also pay attention to the freshness of coffee beans. Qianjie believes that the freshness of coffee beans is a very important part of brewing. The coffee beans shipped in Qianjie are all roasted within 5 days. The purpose of Qianjie roasting is "freshly roasted coffee", so that every guest who places an order is the freshest coffee when he receives the coffee. The bean cultivation period of coffee is about 4-7 days, so when the guest gets it, it is the time when the flavor is the best.

For those who need to be ground, Qianjie warmly reminds you that if the coffee beans are ground in advance, there is no need to raise the beans, because in the process of transportation, the pressure caused by carbon dioxide in the package can also make the coffee flavor round. so you can drink a cup of coffee as soon as you receive the coffee powder. But the coffee powder needs to be brewed in time, because the coffee powder oxidizes more quickly after contact with the air, that is to say, the flavor of the coffee will dissipate more quickly, and the flavor of the coffee is not so good. Therefore, Qianjie suggests buying whole beans, grinding and flushing now, so that we can better taste the flavor of coffee.
