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. With the demand in the specialty coffee market, more and more people are beginning to buy hanging ear coffee in order to drink specialty coffee quickly and conveniently without using a bunch of utensils.

This time we recommend 5 types of coffee beans with distinctive flavors for making coffee ear bags, including:Fruity, floral, fermented, winey and mellow aromas.
1. Front Street Tea-like Ear Bag
Front Street Guodingding coffee beans are processed by washing method. The washed and processed Front Street Yirgacheffe has a clean and refreshing taste, with bright and rising acidity. The acidity of citrus is the main tone, accompanied by the fresh jasmine fragrance, green tea taste and honey aftertaste. It is very suitable for beginners and friends who like small fresh tastes.

Production area altitude: 1900-2300m
Variety: Native species (Heirloom)

Brewing flavor: The overall taste is solid, with prominent fermented aroma and tropical fruits. As the temperature changes, the flavors of berries and cream are revealed, and the sweet and sour citrus aftertaste stays between the teeth and lips for a long time.
2. Front Street Floral Ear Bag
For ear-hanging products, it is recommended to choose Front Street Panama Flower Butterfly. Front Street Panama Butterfly has 70% of the high-quality Geisha bloodline, as well as Caduai and Caturra. It is planted in the Baru volcanic area of Poquet and grows in the volcanic area at an altitude of 1,600 meters. The special local microclimate results in abundant rainfall in the area and a large temperature difference between day and night. As well as careful harvesting and fine processing, this coffee performs very well in terms of thickness, acidity, and floral aroma. Excellent quality and affordable prices allow everyone to experience the flavor of Panama Geisha coffee at a cost-effective price.

3. Front Street Fruity Ear Bag
For fermented fragrant hanging ears, we recommend Geisha with strawberry candy. The Strawberry Sugar Geisha blend is processed with raisin honey, retaining 100% pectin and a zero-water treatment method. On the day of harvesting coffee berries, pour the harvested coffee berries into a large tank. The ripe and full berries will sink to the bottom; underdeveloped or overripe berries will float to the surface, and these floating beans need to be removed. The selected coffee cherries are dried on raised beds for at least three days, and then the skins are removed and the pectin is retained before drying. At this stage, climatic factors are key to successful honey processing. During the drying process, these coffee berries must be constantly turned over to ensure even drying, but the frequency of turning must be mastered, and the drying must be slow to ensure that the coffee has fermentation, but not so slowly that over-fermentation occurs. The raisin treatment gives this bean a heightened sweetness.

Brewing flavor: the fermentation of dried fruits, the fragrance of jasmine, the soft acidity, the aftertaste of almonds, and the obvious sweetness.
4. Front Street fermented fragrant ear bag
For fermented fragrant hanging ears, I recommend Front Street Xizhao. Front Street Xiju comes from Colombia, a famous coffee-producing country. It is well-known because it has won good rankings in world coffee competitions many times. As a new variety, Xizhou uses double anaerobic sun-drying and has a rich fruit flavor, which is reminiscent of rich aromas such as passion fruit, grapes, citrus, apricots, and preserved fruits. It has a clear sense of fermentation in the mouth and has a chocolate aftertaste.

Brewing flavor:Rich flavors of passion fruit, grapes, apricots and preserved fruits, with prominent fruit candy-like sweetness, a hint of chocolate, and rich layers.
5. Front Street mellow taste ear bag
Front Street recommends yellow bourbon from Brazil. Front Street’s Brazilian yellow bourbon coffee comes from Queen’s Manor in Brazil. Brazil has a low altitude, flat and monotonous landforms, lack of microclimate, and the habit of growing coffee trees in the sun, resulting in the unique soft bean flavor of Brazil. Front Street cupped Brazilian coffee beans from different production areas and believed that the flavor of Brazilian coffee beans has low acidity, nutty flavor, sweet aroma of chocolate, and mellow taste.

Coffee bean production area: Morgiana

Brewing flavor: The beans are sweet and clean. The use of semi-sun drying will make their acidity slightly brighter but the sweetness is well balanced. Some even have tropical fruit aromas.
FrontStreet Coffee makes ear-hung coffee bags and pays great attention to the entire ear-hung bag production process in order to allow every coffee lover to drink the best ear-hung single-origin coffee anytime and anywhere.
1. Clean the grinding machine of the ear-mounted coffee pods.
Before making each ear-hanging coffee bag, Front Street will thoroughly clean the grinder to avoid the influence of the beans and the previous flavor of the beans.
2. Grinding degree of ear-mounted coffee pods
The first determining factor in the quality of brewing with an ear-mounted bag is that the flow rate is too slow or too fast, and this depends on the grinding of the grinder. If the grade of the grinder used is not high enough and the grinding quality is poor, a large amount of fine powder will be produced during the grinding process and the grinding will be uneven. When brewing, there will be a "traffic jam" and the flow rate will slow down. If the soaking time is too long, the beans will be over-extracted. The result will be cloudy taste and poor flavor. No matter how good the beans are, they will not be able to express their proper flavor.
3. Automatic packaging of ear-hanging coffee bags
FrontStreet Coffee uses mechanical automatic packaging for two purposes. One is to improve the sealing effect of the outer packaging. The other is to inject nitrogen into the packaging at the same time to eliminate as much oxygen as possible, making oxidation less likely to occur and greatly extending the shelf life of the coffee flavor.
FrontStreet Coffee hanging ear coffee pod brewing suggestions
1. First of all, the net content of coffee powder in Front Street hanging ear coffee has a fixed label (usually 10 grams). This solves the problem of the grinder and the electronic scale.
2. The next step is to solve the water injection amount and water temperature. The ratio of 1:15-1:16 is the same as Pour over(V60) coffee, so the brewed coffee liquid should reach 140ml to 150ml. The water temperature should be about 90℃. If you have a thermometer or a temperature-controlled kettle, you can give priority. If not, you can roughly judge the temperature. Generally, after the kettle is boiled, turn off the heat source and open the lid, wait 2-3 minutes, and the water temperature will reach about 90℃ (room temperature is 28℃).
3. When ready, take out and tear the seal of the ear-hanging bag, open the "ears" at both ends of the filter bag, hang it on the rim of the mug (water cup), and smooth out the powder layer.
4. Inject water into the first section, just make the coffee powder layer completely wet, and steam for 30 seconds.
5. After steaming, add water for the second time. Use a small flow of water in a circle to fill it up. When the powder layer drops slightly, continue to add water until it is full. Repeat until the coffee capacity in the cup reaches about 140-150 ml. Then you can remove the ear-hanging bag and enjoy. (If you want a more precise amount of water, you can also pour 150-160 ml of water into the kettle. After filling all the water in the kettle during brewing, you can remove the ear-hanging bag when all the coffee liquid flows into the cup. The entire brewing process takes about 1 minute to complete.)
