Many people think that there is only one type of coffee, but this is not the case. Just like Pour over(V60) coffee, there are many types to choose from, which can be roughly divided into several categories: floral, fruity, and mellow. Understanding this, we can find the coffee that suits us.
Floral aromas are generally medium-light roasted, showing the fresh flavor of jasmine, citrus, berries, and plums, with bright acidity and elegant aftertaste. They are suitable for friends who are just starting to drink coffee. The most recommended ones are Front Street. Butterfly hanging ear and Front Street Yirgacheffe fruit tingling ear.
The fruity type is represented by the flavor of tropical fruits and dark berries, and is mostly medium roasted. The coffee tastes sweet and full, with a delicate aroma, and sometimes has the flavor of black tea. Friends who like this type of coffee can buy Front Street. Strawberry Candy Hanging Er, Front Street. Sun-dried Oiran, which is suitable for friends who do not like bitter coffee;
Full-bodied coffee beans are usually made from medium-dark roasted coffee beans, such as Front Street Mandheling coffee beans and Front Street Brazilian Cerato coffee beans, which are popular among coffee lovers. They have low acidity and a solid and rich taste, making them the first choice for bitter coffee lovers.
A simple method of brewing with hanging ears
The method of brewing ear-mounted Pour over(V60) coffee is very simple. Follow the following four steps to brew a cup of black coffee:
1. Tear off the sealing strip above the filter hanging bag
2. Pull this apart and hang it on the rim of the cup
3. Use hot water of 88 to 93 degrees, maintain a small flow rate and slowly inject half a bag of hot water. Soak for 10-20 seconds first. Then start the second period of hot water until the time is up. Inject the filter bag until it is 9 minutes full. When all the hot water has flowed out, inject the last 9 minutes full and wait for the coffee liquid to drip out (if you like the taste lighter, you can add more hot water to dilute the concentration of the coffee).
4. Take out the filter bag and discard it. After brewing, you can clip the paper on both sides of the ear-mounted Pour over(V60) coffee and remove it without getting your fingers wet at all, which is very convenient.
The ear hooks are too sore, what should I do?
If the coffee is too acidic, it may be caused by the water temperature being too high. You can cool it slightly by 2 to 3 degrees Celsius in order to reduce the release of some sour substances;
It's too painful to hang my ears, what should I do?
Coffee is too bitter, usually because it is soaked for too long during brewing, which leads to over-extraction. We can increase the water flow and let the coffee powder move and circle under the impact of hot water, so as to avoid clogging;
The ear hooks are too light, what should I do?
Different from the previous two, there is only one possibility for the coffee to be too weak, that is, too much water is added. A pack of hanging ears contains 10g of coffee powder, and 150ml of hot water should be added. The three sections are half a bag + 9 points full + 9 points full.
