The origin of ice drop coffee

On the Indonesian island of Java, which was once a Dutch colony in the 17th century, it is said that the coffee extraction method used here was introduced by Dutch businessmen, so it was named Dutch coffee Dutch Coffee. This kind of coffee drips with ice water for a long time, so it is also called "coldbrew coffee cold" or "water drip coffee".

Ice drop coffee is a coffee that is dripped in ice water for 8-12 hours at room temperature. although the aroma is not strong, it emits a unique aroma, which is not available when extracted with hot water. The biggest advantage of this kind of coffee is that it is quite pure and has no extra flavor, but it can give full play to all the ingredients in the coffee.

There are two ways to extract ice-drop coffee. One is the traditional method that is still used in many parts of Indonesia today-- putting the coffee in a lead bucket and dripping. The other is to use the all-in-one machine to drip (that is, the ice drip kettle we often see in coffee shops, it consists of a glass kettle containing ice water with a drip switch, a glass pot containing coffee powder and connected to a glass serpentine bend, and finally dripping to a glass flask. Using the dripping principle of ice drop coffee utensils, people can not help but think of laboratory tools, the function is good, the appearance also looks quite spectacular, just these can stimulate my curiosity. Ice droplets are made with a variety of tools, but the price is quite high, mainly made and sold by Japanese businessmen.

From this point of view, "coldbrew coffee cold" or "water drip coffee" both refer to the same meaning, and there is no essential difference, just different expressions and names of the same thing.

If there is a difference, I think the term "ice brew" covers a wider scope, which can refer to both ice droplets and cold bubbles.
