Ear-mounted coffee is really a must-have design invention for lazy people. Why? Because it is easy to operate. You only need a cup and a pot of boiling water to brew it at home or when traveling. It is much simpler than ordering a cup of coffee in a cafe. Or compare it to Pour over(V60) coffee. Thinking of a bunch of utensils, ear-mounted coffee is more practical.
So what is the flavor of coffee brewed by hanging ear coffee? Is it different from Pour over(V60) coffee? At the Front Street Coffee Roasting Factory, I occasionally like to brew coffee with a cup of coffee in the morning. This is where my work day begins. Once I brewed a cup of red cherry cup and gave it to the roaster to taste. He actually said it was very delicious. Today, Front Street Coffee will brew a fresh-flavored Front Street Yirgacheffe Red Cherry to see what’s special about its flavor.
Hanging ear coffee vs instant coffee
It is said that hanging ear coffee was invented by the Japanese. Its principle is to put coffee powder in a filter bag of non-woven fabric or tissue paper, with two paper plywood on the outside. When opened, it can be hung on a narrow-mouthed cup. After brewing, you can directly pull out the filter bag and drink fragrant single-origin coffee. Compared with instant coffee, it is made by grinding fresh single-origin coffee beans into powder and brewing directly, which can preserve the aroma and taste of the coffee beans to the maximum extent.
The weight of each bag of hanging ear coffee is about 10 grams, which is exactly the amount of a cup of 150ml to 200ml. The design of the ear-hanging bag gives the coffee powder as much "breathing and tumbling space" as possible, so that when it is brewed with hot water, it can simmer and steam out a deep aroma. Its design can be said to cover the functions of beans, grinder, electronic scale, filter cup, and filter paper. When brewing, you only need one hand for the pot and one cup. Especially suitable for home, office and travel.
How to operate ear-hanging coffee
Step one:Open the package of the ear-hanging bag, tear the filter paper bag along the dotted line, and hang the ear-hanging bag flatly on the edge of the cup. Let the freshly boiled water sit for one to two minutes. (The water temperature is approximately 90 degrees Celsius)
Step 2: Perform the first water injection. Slowly pour water into the coffee powder. The amount of water should be enough to soak the coffee.
Step 3: Leave to steam for 30 seconds.
Step 4: Inject water for the second time, continue to inject water slowly, inject water in a circular path from the inside to the outside, and then from the outside to the inside. Repeat when the water volume reaches 150 to 200 ml (about half the amount of canned Coke).
Step 5: Continue to soak the ear-hanging bag in the liquid for 30 to 50 seconds. Take out the paper bag and start drinking. The flavor brewed by this Yirgacheffe red cherry hanging ear is actually not much different from the flavor brewed by hand. The flavor is lemon, berry, tropical fruit, citrus and black tea.
In addition to Front Street red cherries, we actually have many Arabica earrings to choose from. For first-time tasters, the white floral-flavored Front Street fruit diced earrings, the nutty-flavored Front Street Brazilian seasonal earrings, and the woody caramel-flavored Front Street Mandheling seasonal earrings are the first choice.
The operation of a cup of ear-mounted coffee is so simple. If your hands are itchy, you can take action.
