It is a convenient, simple and hygienic method to brew coffee by dripping filter paper. To brew a cup of dripping filter coffee in the simplest way, you only need to prepare a filter. Then you just need to take a mug that you usually use, put the filter on the cup, put the filter paper on it, pour in the ground coffee bean powder, and prepare a pot of hot water, so you can brew a cup of delicious and hot fresh coffee at home.
The drip-type brewing method of filter paper is mainly to fully mix coffee bean powder with hot water, extract four flavors and one fragrance from the coffee, and then drip out through the filter paper. This method can filter the fat, protein and bad impurities contained in the coffee, and get a refreshing coffee, which can take care of your health while enjoying the delicious taste.
When making your own brew for the first time, you can easily enjoy a good taste at home as long as you pay attention to the following matters.
(1). Beans: Only good beans can make good coffee. Choose beans that suit your taste, buy a small amount according to the amount used, and keep them in a closed container to maintain their freshness and charming fragrance. Of course, if you have more budget, it is absolutely worthwhile to invest in a good bean mill. Freshly ground coffee bean powder can provide fragrance in the air and delicious brew, so that your investment is definitely worth the reward.
(2). Water flow: The biggest skill in brewing filter coffee is the control of water flow thickness and stability.
Stable and moderate water flows spirally around the center of the filter, just like a stirring rod stirring coffee powder and hot water evenly, releasing all the strong alcohol and sweetness. If you are addicted to the bubble-type coffee brewing method, you might as well buy another beautifully-shaped brewing pot at this time. Its biggest feature is its thin and long outlet pipe, which allows people who have never used it to easily pour out the thin and stable water flow, helping you to have the brewing level of professional coffee makers in an instant. This cup of coffee is even more delicious.
(3) Warm cup: In addition, remind all coffee lovers that hot coffee must be drunk while it is hot, which is the most delicious moment of coffee.
The action of warming the cup can prolong the heat of the preserved coffee. Just pour hot water into the coffee cup first, make the cup warm by the temperature of the hot water, pour out the hot water and then pour in the freshly brewed hot coffee, which can help keep the heat of the coffee and prolong the time of enjoying delicious coffee.
2. Siphon type
Siphon coffee brewing method is also called choke pot or vacuum pot. Because of its beautiful shape, the brewing process is full of drama and strong coffee fragrance. The choke pot is basically composed of two glass balls, one of which is sleeved on the other, and the middle is separated by a filter covered with filter cloth.
First, put boiling hot water into the glass ball at the lower level, and the amount of hot water depends on the size of the coffee cup used. On average, a cup of coffee needs about140 ~150c.c., then fix the upper pot with the filter cloth on the base, pour in the ground coffee bean powder, and heat the water in the pot by alcohol lamp or other heat sources.
After the water boils, the steam pressure forces the water to rise through the pipe. At this time, the coffee bean powder in the upper pot contacts with the hot water, and it is mixed into a muddy state by stirring, and the four flavors and one fragrance of coffee are dissolved out.
Let the coffee be fully soaked with water and then put out the fire source. When the air in the lower ball is cooled, it will form a vacuum state, and the coffee liquid will be sucked back into the base through the filter cloth. At this time, the coffee will be poured into the preheated cup, and you can indulge in its unique fragrance and sip its sweet and bitter taste.
The cleaning and preservation of the filter cloth is a troublesome job when the siphoned coffee is brewed. After it is used for the first time, the cloth changes from white to brown, accumulating fat and protein that cannot be completely removed. When it comes into contact with the air, it will produce an offensive odor, which will seriously affect the delicious taste of coffee.
It is a good idea for someone to keep this used filter cloth in a glass of clean water, but pay attention to changing the clean water frequently.
