Last Updated: 2024/09/19, It's steaming. This step is very important, the main purpose is to remove carbon dioxide from coffee beans and use it to open up the flavor of coffee. Pour the ground beans into the filter paper, gently pat the coffee powder pile with your hand, then pour water from the center of the powder pile and circle it gently. Generally speaking, we recommend twice the amount of coffee powder. If you don't have an electronic scale, when you see the coffee dripping under the filter paper

It's steaming. This step is very important, the main purpose is to remove carbon dioxide from coffee beans and use it to open up the flavor of coffee. Pour the ground beans into the filter paper, gently pat the coffee powder pile with your hand, then pour water from the center of the powder pile and circle it gently. Generally speaking, we recommend twice the amount of coffee powder. If you don't have an electronic scale, you can stop pouring water when you see the coffee liquid dripping from under the filter paper. Generally speaking, moderate coffee powder is steamed for about 30 seconds, if it is medium-shallow coffee beans, it is recommended to extend the steaming time to 45 seconds to one minute. If there is no chronograph, it can be regarded as steaming when the powder pile begins to collapse from the middle.

Advantages: the mixing method can amplify the advantages of the coffee beans, especially enhance the taste of the coffee beans, and will not be too thin.

Disadvantages: although its flavor is more obvious, its return is weakened a lot. And this method has high requirements for the quality of coffee beans, if you use poor coffee beans, it will only infinitely magnify its bad flavor. In addition, because the grinding degree of coffee powder required by this method is very fine, coupled with sufficient stirring, it is easy to over-extract improperly.

Brewing mode:

First inject 50g hot water (because too little water will make it impossible to stir, so 50g hot water is injected here for steaming time), stir so that the water is in uniform contact with coffee powder, then steam moderately roasted coffee powder to 30s and then water injection is completed during 2min; deep baking and steaming to 15s and then water injection is completed during 1min30s

1. Before steaming with water, make sure the coffee powder is as horizontal as possible in the filter screen or filter paper.

two。 When steaming, the force of injecting water is not too strong, gently.

3. The amount of water used in steaming should be 10% of the total water.

4. In the process of steaming, there is as little extract as possible; when there is too much extract in the kettle, the amount of water injected should be reduced, or attention should be paid to the degree of grinding.

5. The time of steaming is about 30 seconds.
