Siphon pot how much do you know about coffee utensils siphon pot

Siphon pot (Siphon), commonly known as "plug wind pot" or "siphon", is a simple and easy-to-use method of coffee brewing, and it is also one of the most popular coffee brewing methods in cafes. Many people like the precision of siphon cooking with a touch of laboratory flavor, watching the water boil up and the coffee extracted into black drops, step by step in the hands of the coffee brewer. Using an Italian coffee maker often leaves part of the process to a machine, and siphon coffee seems to satisfy some people who like to do-it-yourself DIY.

The production principle is that the water is heated to produce water vapor, causing hot expansion and cold shrinkage, pushing the hot water from the lower pot to the upper pot, and then sucking back the water from the upper pot after the lower pot cools.

In 1840, a laboratory glass test tube pulled the siphon coffee maker (Siphon) invention trigger, Scottish Navy engineer Robert. Robert Napier created the first vacuum coffee pot based on a test tube for chemical experiments. Two years later, Mrs. Vasser of France improved the pot, and the familiar upper and lower convection siphon pot was born. The siphon coffee maker lived in France for a long time, but never got a good chance to be very popular.

It became popular for the first time when it was brought to Denmark and Japan in the mid-20th century.

Aestheticist Danes pay attention to functional design, Peter, who imported siphon pots from France in the mid-1950 s. Bolton (Peter Bodum), who thought French-made pots were expensive and difficult to use, partnered with architect Kaas Klaeson to develop Bodum's first styling siphon pot, which went public under the name "Santos".

The Japanese like the "tortoise hair" personality of the siphon pot technology standard, carefully deliberating the complex relationship between the size of coffee powder, water and time to mobilize the whole army, and develop a well-regulated coffee path.

Siphon coffee maker always has a hint of mystery in most people's impression. Siphon coffee maker plays an important role in the history of coffee development in Taiwan. In recent years, so-called ground coffee (Italian espresso) has become very popular. In comparison, this siphon coffee maker requires higher technology and more cumbersome procedures. In today's industrial and commercial society, there is a tendency to decline gradually, but the mellow flavor of coffee brewed by siphon coffee pot can not be compared with ground coffee brewed by machine. Let's take a look at the production method.
