The fast-growing coffee shop in Jinan

In Huang Hui's eyes, although the coffee industry in Jinan started late, it developed rapidly. "now there are shops in Jinan that make high-quality coffee. Although it still belongs to a minority at present, I believe that more and more people will pursue quality coffee. The so-called high-quality coffee includes many aspects. First, there is plenty of time for raising beans. At present, many coffee shops buy their own bean roasters, which can freely control the time of roasting, grinding and brewing, unlike in the past, they have to be put for more than ten days after being roasted in a factory and then changed hands by traders. Sometimes it takes several months or even more than half a year for coffee beans to arrive at the terminal store. Second, the origin of coffee beans is also very important, and the taste is different in different producing areas. Now many fine coffee can be tasted carefully and can also taste fruit flavor; third, there should be a scientific way of extraction. Previously, there was no fixed proportion standard for coffee prepared in some stores, but now there are clear standards, and there are corresponding requirements for water temperature, grinding fineness, concentration and time, and more standardized coffee can be made. "

Huang Hui said that the development and change of the coffee industry in Jinan is reflected not only in the process production, but also in the transformation of the service mode. "in addition to equipment and material supply, we also provide integrated menu solutions, bar moving lines and poster promotion services. At present, we can help about 100 people to start a coffee business every year in Jinan. At present, the number of customers with long-term cooperation in the province has increased from less than 100 to more than 3000. "

B dreamy forest cafe

From the initial Shangdao coffee, cross-strait coffee to Starbucks, Ka Shijia, and then to the popular Korean style and ecological cafes, it can be said that Jinan's coffee industry is not out of date. Ka Meng Cafe, located in the Olympic Sports Center, is one of the representatives of Jinan Ecological Cafe.

More than 300 chairs, each table is not the same; more than 70 varieties, different colors of chandeliers; hundreds of pots of green plants and exquisitely decorated trees on both sides of the aisle, as if to bring people into a "dream forest". "opening a coffee shop was my dream when I was a child. In order to build this coffee shop well, my friends and I have worked very hard to build it. Wooden tables and chairs are made by the old door panels I collected from the countryside, and the chandelier is specially selected and customized by me in Guangzhou, with an area of more than 1700 square meters, which can be said to be the largest single store in Jinan at present. " Talking about the experience of creating a dream, manager Liu Xiaojuan looks happy.

Liu Xiaojuan said that at first, the customers who came to the store were mainly "post-80s", "post-90s" and "post-00s". Now, after more than a year of development, they have also attracted many "regular customers". In order to run the cafe well, Liu Xiaojuan made a lot of efforts. "according to the needs of our guests, we have specially designed some private rooms with bathrooms; in the evening, we will invite singers to sing, so that customers can enjoy the taste of coffee in soothing and melodious music; and according to the season, we also offer individual coffee such as cherry latte, so that customers can taste different delicacies." Liu Xiaojuan said.

The reporter found that there was a long aisle in the middle of the coffee shop on the two floors, with a square platform connected at the end. "will it be a waste of resources if there is no coffee table in this open space?" The reporter asked. "No, it can be of great use here. This long aisle has served as a runway for three romantic weddings, where the bride and groom hold hands and embrace their happiness." Liu Xiaojuan said with a smile.
