Introduction to the use of siphon pot utensils the degree of grinding of coffee

1. After boiling the filter in hot water for 5 minutes, put it into the upper pot. The chain of the filter is pulled down through the wall of the upper pot to hang the hook and fine-tune to keep the filter in the center of the upper pot. Fill the pot with hot water to "two cups". Put the filter element into the pot, hold the end of the chain with your hand, and gently hook it to the end of the glass tube. Be careful not to release the hook suddenly, so as not to damage the glass tube of the upper pot.

two。 Pay attention to wipe the water droplets at the bottom of the bottle before heating to avoid damage to the utensils. Light the alcohol lamp and insert the upper pot obliquely so that the rubber edge is pressed against the spout of the next pot (rest assured that the upper pot will not fall off) so that the chain is soaked in the water. Then boil the water and wait for the pot to produce continuous bubbles. Just put the upper pot diagonally, don't let it clog the next pot, small bubbles don't count, wait for big bubbles to appear.

3. When large bubbles appear continuously in the lower pot, straighten the upper pot, shake it left and right and press it down slightly so that it is gently stuffed into the lower pot. After the upper pot is plugged in, you can see that the water in the next pot begins to climb up. If you have a bean grinder, you can start grinding beans now! Two cups of water use a medium grinding scale of three spoonfuls of coffee (about 24g)

4. After the water has completely risen to the pot, don't worry, wait a few seconds, and then prepare to pour in the coffee powder after the bubbles in the pot decrease a little. Pour in the ground coffee powder and move it around with a bamboo spoon to evenly remove the coffee powder into the water. The timing starts at the same time as the first stirring.

Stir gently to avoid violent stirring. If it is fresh coffee powder, it will float on the surface to form a layer of powder. At this time, the coffee powder needs to be stirred so that the flavor of the coffee can be completely extracted. The correct stirring action is to move the bamboo spoon in the left and right direction, with a "strong way" of downward pressure, to "press" the coffee powder floating on the surface of the water below the surface. When the water in the lower pot reaches about 88 degrees, start inserting it into the upper pot. Note that the siphon tube should be perpendicular to the fire source in a straight line. When the hot water flows upstream into the pot and mixes with the coffee powder, stir quickly for 6 seconds and 8 times with a bamboo knife. Be careful not to touch the filter. After the mixing is finished, the clock starts, about 1 minute.

Fill the lower part of the siphon pot with the amount of water you need, and remember to dry the next pot and don't fry it. After boiling the water, the water will pour the coffee powder into the upper container and boil the coffee over low heat because of the air pressure. when the water rises 2 / 3, do not stir once from all sides to the middle, and do not stir again after 35 seconds (the best Blue Mountain only takes 35 seconds to boil).

After cooking, the coffee will be returned to the lower container through a strainer, leaving only coffee grounds on top.

The cooking time varies according to the variety of beans, 40-45 seconds for lightly baked beans, 50 seconds for medium baking, and 40 seconds for deep baking (to ensure fat and aroma and mellow taste, of course, the powder should be a little finer).

Note that if you use an alcohol lamp, it is estimated that it is only equivalent to medium heat, and the taste of lightly baked coffee beans will not be too good for a long time. It is recommended to drink something with a heavy taste. If you really can't, buy a multi-purpose alcohol sprayer for camping. The firepower is equivalent to LPG fuel, and you can boil light and moderate baked beans over high fire.

Coffee is not perfect, I think it suits me. I like the best Espresso of black coffee, but some people don't even drink it. If you cook it for others, you have to consider the taste, and most people can accept the taste of Blue Mountain.

It takes experience and personal understanding to brew coffee well. Siphon pots brew individual coffee. If the beans are deep, it will taste better with a coffee machine. Of course, you can also practice by yourself.
