As people in modern society have an increasing demand for coffee, there is also an increasing demand for specialty coffee. The equipment and steps for brewing specialty coffee are undoubtedly a troublesome and time-consuming task for today's busy coffee lovers. In order to solve this problem, Front Street launched the ear-hanging pod coffee, so that all lovers can drink a good cup of specialty coffee anytime and anywhere without the need for brewing technology. Many people will tell the baristas on Front Street that they think the ear-hung coffee bags are unprofessional. Front Street believes that there is no need to belittle the emergence of ear-hung coffee. After all, if a delicacy wants to be integrated into the public, it needs to be more fast and convenient.

 

The invention of the ear-hanging coffee pod
In 1990, Japan's Yamanaka Industrial Co., Ltd. applied the concept of tea bags to coffee, invented filter-hung coffee and applied for a patent. However, the ear-hanging bag designed by Yamanaka Industrial Co., Ltd. could not bear the weight of brewing coffee, and it was easy to lose balance during the brewing process, so it was not successfully commercialized. It was not until 1998 that Daji Shoji improved the original invention and extended the ear-hanging part outwards, and the present invention was created.Hanging ear coffee。

The Sidamo production area in Ethiopia is at an altitude of 1400-2200m. Front Street’s sun-dried Sidamo’s coffee has a rich fruity aroma and smooth fermentation. Front Street chose sun-dried coffee beans from the Sidamo production area as one of the hanging ear bag coffee series because it is very suitable for people who like strong flavors but don’t like too strong flavors. It achieves a perfect balance and neutrality between aroma and taste.

Half-sun-dried Brazilian red fruits on Front StreetIt comes from the Cerrado production area in central and western Brazil. The Cerrado production area is at an altitude of 1100-1300m. It is the essence of the prairie, with high altitude and fertile soil. The coffee beans grown there are sweet and mellow. Coupled with the use of Brazil's unique semi-sun-dried processing method, Front Street believes that the coffee beans in this production area have high sweetness, low acidity, and a rich nutty aroma.

Front Street Sherry coffee beans are Front Street's best-selling coffee beans. The flavor of Front Street Sherry coffee beans is closer to the taste of whiskey sherry, with rich vanilla cream and a long-lasting nutty chocolate flavor in the back.

Warm cup:Prepare the cup, first pour some hot water into the cup to warm it. The function is to prevent the brewed coffee from cooling down too quickly. The flavor of the coffee will continue to change as the temperature drops. If it cools down too quickly, many different tastes will be missed.

hang up: First, shake the ear-hanging bag slightly to let the coffee powder fall down to avoid scattering the coffee powder when tearing it open. Then pour out the hot water in the cup. After tearing off the seal on the ear-hanging bag, open the paper hanging ears on both sides, shake it to make the coffee powder flat, and finally hang it to the rim of the cup.

Pre-wet:The amount of water injected for the first time should be just enough to soak the coffee powder. Too much or too little will affect the flavor. Then wait 20 seconds for the coffee powder to completely absorb the water. The intensity of the coffee can be adjusted using the pre-wet time, extending to 40 seconds can result in stronger coffee.

Water injection:For the second time, water can be poured into the filter paper until it is 80% full. It is best to use a slender water stream. After the water flow reaches the pre-wetted height, you can continue to pour water until 150 to 180cc is quenched. Once the quenching is completed, there is no need to wait for all the water in the filter paper to flow out, and it can be discarded directly.
