Choosing the right beans is crucial for hand-drip coffee. This article will explore which beans are more suitable for hand-drip coffee and provide some purchase suggestions.

Origin and flavor of each product

Coffee beans from different origins have unique flavor characteristics.

Grinding degree and coarseness

For hand brewed coffee, the degree of grinding is very important. Too fine a grind will cause the coffee powder to clog the filter and affect the brewing effect; while too coarse a grind will result in insufficient coffee extraction and a thin taste.

Generally speaking, medium to slightly fine grinding is suitable for hand-brewed coffee. This ensures that the water can contact the coffee evenly and extract rich flavor substances in an appropriate time.

Freshness and preservation

For hand-brewed coffee, the freshness of the beans is very important, as it directly affects the aroma and flavor released by the coffee beans.

In order to keep the beans fresh, you should try to choose products that are well packaged, well sealed and marked with the production date when purchasing. In addition, it is best to store the beans in a light-proof, dry, well-sealed container before use, and avoid exposure to high temperature or humidity.

Brand and reputation

When buying hand brewed coffee beans, you can refer to some well-known brands and products with good reputation. These brands usually have rich experience and technology and can provide high-quality coffee beans.

In addition, you can also communicate with other hand-brew coffee lovers to learn about their comments and recommendations on different brands of beans. This way, you can more accurately choose beans that suit your taste and needs.

in conclusion

Choose single-origin beans with different flavor characteristics from different origins according to personal preferences; pay attention to the degree of grinding, keep it medium to slightly fine; pay attention to freshness and store it in a proper environment; refer to well-known brands and word-of-mouth recommendations for purchase.

With the above suggestions, it will be easier to find the beans that best suit your taste and enjoy the pure coffee flavor in hand-brewed coffee.
