1. Preparation

Before you start making coffee, you need to prepare some basic tools and materials, the first of which is coffee beans. Choosing coffee beans that suit your taste is the first step in making delicious coffee. You need a coffee machine or brewing tool such as a hand-brewed pot, as well as the corresponding filter and filter paper, a high-quality coffee cup and a suitable coffee spoon.

2. Grind coffee beans

Grinding coffee beans is one of the key steps in making coffee. Different types of coffee beans require different grinding degrees to suit different brewing methods. The coarseness of the ground coffee beans can be adjusted according to the instructions of the coffee machine or hand-brewed pot. Grinding too finely will lead to over-extraction and produce bitterness; grinding too coarsely will lead to insufficient extraction and affect the taste. Mastering the appropriate grinding technique is the basis for making delicious coffee.

3. Brewing process

There are many ways to brew coffee. Here we take the common coffee machine brewing as an example.

1. Add coffee beans : Pour the ground coffee beans into the filter in the coffee machine.

2. Add water : Add appropriate amount of water according to the coffee machine instructions.

3. Set parameters : Set the appropriate brewing temperature and pressure according to the type of coffee beans and personal taste.

4. Wait for extraction : Start the coffee machine and wait for the extraction process to complete.

5. Enjoy : Pour the brewed coffee into a coffee cup and add milk, sugar and other condiments according to personal preference.

The brewing method of the hand-poured kettle also has its own unique charm, which requires more care and patience. From boiling water, grinding beans, measuring beans, folding filter paper to the final brewing, each step needs to be carefully operated. The hand-poured kettle can control the water temperature, water flow and brewing time more accurately, so as to get a cup of coffee with a mellow taste.
