The highest state of homemade coffee: hand-brewed coffee

Hand flushing can bring the personality and characteristics of coffee beans to the extreme, so a single coffee bean is often chosen. Hand-made coffee was invented by the French, but it was the Japanese who carried it forward. Hand brewing is the highest state of coffee brewing. With the support of rich experience, a cup of coffee with great personality can be obtained by controlling water temperature, powder quantity and thickness, flushing speed, technique and extraction time.

The basic appliances required for making coffee by hand are as follows:

Filter cup filter paper filter kettle fine kettle thermometer

Process:

Step 1: origami filter paper.

Fold the filter paper into a cone along the edge of the filter paper seam and put it into the filter cup.

Step 2: wet the filter paper.

Remove the odor of the filter paper with hot water and stick the filter paper to the filter cup

Step 3: grind beans and pour powder.

Pour the ground powder into the filter paper and pat the filter cup to make the coffee powder basically flat.

Step 4: warm the cup and warm the pot.

Pour a small amount of hot water into the bottom pot, shake a few times, and then pour out. Then put the solid bean powder on the bottom pot.

Step 5: prepare 91 degrees hot water.

Step 6: steaming.

Pour water from the center of the powder and circle 2-3 times. Freshly baked coffee powder will expand after absorbing water, protruding upward, emitting a light mellow flavor. At this time, there is basically no water dripping from the filter cup, and it is normal to have 3-5 drops. The purpose of steaming is to let the dry powder absorb water evenly and prepare for secondary water injection.

Step 7: brew.

After more than ten seconds, the water is injected stably with a flow thicker than that of steaming. Pay attention to the flow of water not to rush to the filter paper, otherwise the extraction is insufficient. This step will inject water twice until the required liquid is extracted.

Step 8: fill the cup.

Before filling the cup, you should warm the cup, then gently shake the hand to make the coffee evenly, pour the coffee into the cup and produce it.

The flavor of hand-brewed coffee is soft, bright, smooth and layered, and its sweetness is not inferior. It is famous for its elegant, sweet and sour fragrance.
