Introduction of Yunnan small Coffee beans

1) you can use the kind of water used in household filter drinking fountains or filtered tap water.

2) some coffee beans / coffee powder

The amount of water in a cup of coffee in a siphon pot is 110ml (but it will be reduced by about 1/5 after brewing), and the corresponding coffee powder is about 15g.

If the conditions are right, it is best to choose coffee beans within 10 days from the factory and grind them into coffee powder before brewing coffee.

The fineness of coffee powder can refer to the thickness of "ultra-fine granulated" sugar sold in the market.

3) A set of siphon coffee maker (Hario TCA- 3 is used here), including upper cover, upper seat, lower seat, siphon pot bracket, filter, alcohol lamp (using 95% industrial alcohol) and alcohol lamp windshield. Because the firepower of the alcohol lamp is difficult to adjust in the process of use, it is necessary to make it smaller (the cotton core only needs to leak out of the top 2mm / 3mm).

4) one spoon for 10 grams of coffee

5) stir the bamboo stick.

6) A piece of filter cloth or filter paper used in the siphon pot; the filter cloth should be ironed with hot water before being used for the first time to remove the odor.

7) A damp rag

8) A pointer clock for timing

Specific cooking steps:

1) add an appropriate amount of pure water to the lower seat of the siphon kettle (heated pure water can be used to shorten the time of boiling water. In this operation, the amount of water added is 2.5 cups, that is, about 280 milliliters, two cups of water is for guests / friends, and the extra half cup is for the brewers to taste in advance. If the taste is abnormal at that time, do not give it to the guests, hehe)

2) when there is enough fuel in the alcohol lamp, ignite it and place it directly under the lower seat of the siphon kettle.

3) fix the filter with filter cloth / filter paper on the upper seat of the siphon kettle and make sure that the position of the filter is in the center (if the position is off, it can be adjusted with a bamboo stirring rod)

4) pour the right amount of coffee powder (2.5 cups of water corresponds to about 37 grams of coffee powder, which can be adjusted according to your taste) into the upper seat of the siphon pot. Shake the upper seat horizontally so that the coffee powder is evenly covered with the filter

5) insert the upper seat of the siphon pot obliquely into the lower seat, but not tightly (if the upper seat is inserted after the water is boiled, boiling hot water may suddenly erupt, which is quite dangerous, remember! )

6) when the water in the lower seat is boiling completely, move the alcohol lamp away for about 10 seconds, then move it back, but do not put it directly under the lower seat, it should be slightly off the center. This has two purposes: one is to reduce the water temperature to about 95 degrees, and the other is to reduce the firepower of alcohol lamps (as mentioned earlier, alcohol lamps are not very convenient in adjusting firepower. This is also the reason why some people rotate to use two alcohol lamps or gas stoves with adjustable firepower)
