Espresso categories: espresso, SOE coffee, Americano, latte, Australian white coffee, cappuccino, dirty.


espresso: It is necessary to use an espresso machine for pressurized extraction. The coffee beans need to be ground to an extremely fine level, and then pressed flat against a cloth. In a sealed environment, more water is allowed to pass through, and a small amount of coffee liquid with high concentration is extracted. Usually espresso products pursue high cost performance, so most cafes use blended coffee. By blending coffee beans from different production areas, the taste of the extracted coffee can be more balanced. At the same time, the coffee is roasted at a medium or higher depth to make the coffee taste richer and mellower.

SOE coffee:It refers to espresso extracted from coffee beans from a single origin (single origin). FrontStreet Coffee believes that compared to espresso made by blending coffee beans, SOE coffee can show the unique flavor of the production area of ​​a coffee bean and will be richer in levels.


Americano coffee:Espresso + water. (Iced Americano = espresso + water + ice)

Hand brewed coffee:Hand-brewed coffee is actually a method of brewing coffee that can be seen in our daily cafes using filter cups, water kettles and other equipment. One of the characteristics of ​Pour over​(V60) coffee is to use a filter cup with filter paper or other filter media to filter the coffee grounds.

If you want to drink a cup of coffee with the most original taste and rich layers, Front Street recommends you to try the ​Pour over​(V60) coffee made from freshly roasted coffee beans + freshly ground. All single-origin specialty coffee beans currently sold by FrontStreet Coffee can be used to make ​Pour over​(V60) coffee. In order to ensure the freshness of the coffee beans, all shipments are sent out within five days after the roasting is completed.


Cold brew coffee:It is coffee that is ground into medium-fine particles, soaked in cold water for more than 8 hours, and then filtered out the coffee grounds through a filter. The method of making cold brew coffee is very simple. As long as the parameters are used correctly, you can easily make delicious iced coffee.

The standard for making cold brew coffee at FrontStreet Coffee is that the ratio of powder to water to ice is 1:8:4, that is, the actual ratio of powder to water is 1:12. Ice cubes are added to ensure that the temperature of the water is low enough and the extraction efficiency can be maintained at a stable level.


Ice drip coffee: The process of slowly dripping ice water onto the coffee powder at a constant speed for extraction usually takes at least 5 hours. After dripping, it needs to be refrigerated and fermented overnight before drinking. In order to highlight the unique mellow taste of ice drops and avoid the unpleasant tail flavors caused by long-term drip filtering, many coffee shops will specially choose high-quality single-origin beans full of fruit aroma. With the blessing of slow drip filtering and low-temperature maturation, the ice drops produced not only have the translucent flavor of fruit acid coffee, but also are filled with a fermented texture like fruit wine, which is mellow yet refreshing.

Special coffee:Special coffee is actually made by adding different ingredients to coffee extracted using different extraction methods. Fruits and juices are usually used as the main ingredients.
