Exploring the Secret by follicle method ─ testing the meaning of different filters and their matched filter paper

Utensils: Aeropress+ original filter paper, MUJI fan-shaped rice porcelain filter cup + MUJI primary color filter paper (HK $9, 50 sheets), HARIO V60 resin filter cup + 02 unbleached primary color filter paper (purchased on Taobao)

Use the above three kinds of utensils to brew the following four kinds of beans at the same time, divided into four groups:

Test beans (all self-baked): East Timor-shallow, Brazil Santos NY2 half-sun-medium, Costa Rica SHB washed Tara beads-shallow, Yega Xuefei G2 washing-shallow.

Use separately each time:

12g powder (Huijia ZD-13: grinding degree 10), each time with the same kind of 10g bean pre-grinding machine; 200g water, 85Mel 87 degree water.

Aeropress uses the positive method, all three are soaked and stirred in 50g water, and then directly inject water to 200g at a time. The time after brewing is about 2-2: 30.

At the same time, wash three different filter papers with freshly boiled 90 degrees hot water: HARIO has the greatest flavor; Aeropress filter paper is installed at the bottom, which may be related to the distance, and the filter paper tastes less than MUJI, but both belong to the satisfactory range.

Among the test beans used, East Timor is a failed bean with a mixed smell, and Brazilian SANTOS is not a good thing, so as to see who has the better ability to recover from garbage beans.

Both Costa Rica and Yega Chuefei want to test sweetness and acidity.

An opinion summed up roughly and briefly:

Aeropress: there is no legend or imagination of the god, bitterness and acidity are slightly mild, BODY is slightly thinner, slightly dense, slightly mellow. The feeling ranks second of the three.

MUJI: overjoyed, both wet fragrance and cup inhalation can show good sweetness and fragrance, bitterness is slightly worse than Aeropress, BODY is smooth, the best of the three. It is also the most honest expression of bitterness and sweetness of the three.

HARIO V60: from beginning to end, there has been a strong smell of filter paper, usually do not compare do not know, now a comparison on the permanent blacklist. The smell of filter paper makes the original sweet and sour incense feel like being kicked by leather shoes. I don't like it.

To explore, for people who are picky about taste buds, the combination of MUJI filter paper filter cups has no glue taste and low paper taste, so it is a good choice with high performance-to-price ratio. Those who are impatient to wash filter paper with more than 100 200ml water in advance suggest to start with Kono directly.
