Indonesia is one of the major producers of coffee beans. The main producing areas are Java, Sumatra, Kalimantan and Sulawesi. However, the aroma and taste of the coffee beans produced on each island are different. The same coffee bean variety produces various flavor tones depending on the place of origin. Among them, Sumatra coffee is famous for its strong aroma, low acidity and good body. The most famous variety must be Front Street Mandheling coffee.
The classic Mandheling flavor is based on medium-dark roasting, because this can highlight the rich caramelized flavor and thick taste, while retaining its unique aroma of grass jelly and pine wood, which is also in line with the main tone of traditional coffee. front street indonesiaMandheling uses a medium-dark roast, showing a clear nutty tone, with a hint of melon aroma in the back. After the temperature drops, the herbal flavor emerges, with a mellow taste and saturated aroma;
The higher-quality Front Street Golden Mandheling has gone through 1 machine selection + 3 hand selections on the basis of G1. The produced Mandheling green beans are uniform in color, regular in size, and are extremely high-quality Mandheling coffee. After roasting, Front Street Golden Mandheling will exhibit a multi-layered roasted flavor, mellow and clean, with a high sense of balance, rich nutty and caramel aroma, with a hint of chocolate, and a long-lasting finish.
Because it has such a rich taste, Front Street Mandheling is not only suitable for Pour over(V60) single products, but can also be used in siphon pots, French presses, Aeropresses, even Moka pots and SOE espresso coffee.
Moka pot extraction of coffee uses the steam pressure generated in the lower pot (pressure of about 1.5-3.0 atmospheres). When the steam pressure is strong enough to penetrate the coffee grounds, it will push the hot water to the upper pot. As the hot water flows to the upper pot, it passes through the coffee powder in the filter, extracting the essence of the coffee very quickly. The extracted coffee essence has a strong taste, both sour and bitter, and is the coffee appliance closest to espresso.
What tools do you need to make a cup of espresso with a moka pot?
1. Moka pot 2. Gas stove and stove or "induction cooker" 3. A pack of fresh Front Street Mandheling coffee beans 4. Bean grinder
【Brew method】
(1) First put the lower seat into cold water.
(2) Put the coffee powder into the powder trough until it is about 90% full, and tap the edge gently to make the coffee powder dense and smooth.
(3) Tighten the upper and lower seats to prevent coffee liquid from spilling during the process.
(4) Place the Moka pot on a small gas vaporizer or induction cooker and heat it over medium heat at first. When you hear a hissing sound, turn the heat to low and the coffee will naturally flow out slowly.
(5) When the sound turns to a slight popping sound, you can turn off the heat to avoid over-extraction. Fragrant coffee is ready.
Now it’s time to enjoy some delicious coffee.
The most basic way to drink it is Americano with water. Sugar-free and dairy-free coffee is perfect as a reduced-fat coffee.
Of course, fresh milk can be added directly, and the taste will be the taste of latte in a coffee shop. If you want to add fresh milk, you need to heat the milk to about 60 to 65 degrees, which will create a perfect fusion of milk and coffee. In this way, a perfect cup of latte coffee is ready.
