Introduction to coffee utensils
As the coffee market becomes more and more prosperous, coffee has also entered people's daily lives. More and more coffee appliances have appeared on the market. Some friends who want to get started don't know how to buy them. Today we will take a look at which appliances are more suitable for novices to get started.
Take Pour over(V60) coffee, which can be easily made at home and is relatively low-cost, as an example. In order of importance, we include a grinder, a filter cup, a filter paper, a brewing pot, and a sharing pot. When it comes to the choice of filter cup, there are many products on the market, such as V60 conical filter cup, Kono filter cup, Origami filter cup, etc., and the taste brewed by different filter cups is also very different. The most popular filter cups on the market are the V60 conical filter cup and the Kono filter cup. Today we will discuss the differences between the two filter cups.
Hario V60
The Hario V60 series filter cup is a cup with a large diameter and unique spiral curve ribs inside, which makes the coffee flow better during the extraction process. The existence of the ribs prevents the filter paper from completely fitting the cup wall, allowing the water to flow down quickly, making the coffee powder less likely to be over-extracted during the brewing process. The large round filter hole at the bottom will also change the final flavor of the coffee according to the size of the water flow. With different water injection methods and techniques, you will get coffee with different tastes and flavors, which is more playable.
If you like coffee with fresh taste and rich layers, you can give priority to using V60. It is recommended to brew with single-origin beans such as Front Street Grana Geisha, Front Street Panama Geisha, Front Street Xizha, and Front Street 2013 Yunnan Xiaoli, which emphasize delicate aroma, so as to better highlight their advantages.
KONO
The cone-shaped filter cup has straight radial grooves. When the filter paper is placed, the filter paper will stick to the wall of the cup, and the air flow will be slowed down, which will lengthen the contact time between the coffee powder particles and the water, making it easier to extract more substances. The taste will be more full than the rib-filled V60. It is more suitable for medium-dark roasted or dark roasted coffee beans. Products with rich caramelized aromas such as Front Street PWN Golden Mandheling, Front Street Queen's Manor, and Front Street Columbia Cymbidium are the first choices.
If you like strong and rich coffee, this is recommended.
