[Previously] on English Corner last week, we introduced how to use Stove Top. In this time, I will tell you the way to use French Press.
[前情提要] 在上周的 English Corner 中,我们向大家介绍了摩卡壶的使用方法。今天,我们将跟大家分享如何使用法压壶。
French Press / 法压壶 This is one of the easiest ways to start brewing coffee at home. All you will need is fresh coffee, scales, grinder,plungerand water. 这也许是制作方法最简单、最适合家用的咖啡冲泡设备了。你只需要新鲜烘焙的咖啡豆、一个电子秤、一个咖啡磨豆机、一个法压壶和一些水,便能制作出香醇美味的咖啡。 The result is a heavy-bodied coffee with a super simple process. 用法压壶制作出来的咖啡口感极为浓重,操作方法则极为简便。
GRIND / 研磨程度:Coarsely ground / 粗糙研磨(22克) BREWING TIME / 萃取时间:4? minutes / 4分30秒 YOU WILL NEED / 你需要:French Press / 法压壶(容量400毫升)Water / 水(350毫升)Stirrer / 搅拌棒Your Favourite Mug / 你最喜爱的咖啡马克杯 (离不开的马克杯,每集都说)
1. Measure out your coffee (22g) and water (350ml). Grind your coffee a little coarser than you would for a drip grind.称好22克咖啡豆和350毫升水,咖啡的研磨程度要比制作滴滤咖啡时更粗一些。 2. Preheat your vessel with hot water then discard it and add your ground coffee.用热水预热咖啡壶,后将水倒掉,加入咖啡粉。
3. Pour the water you measured out on top of your grounds right up to the top, ensuring even coverage and that everything is saturated. Once you’ve poured in the water wait 30 seconds then knock down the bloom by folding the coffee down with a spoon to make sure everything extracts evenly.
4. Put the lid on it so the heat doesn’t escape and twiddle your thumbs for 4 minutes. Once 4 minutes is up, push your plunger down and pour into your cup. If you’re not going to drink it all at once make sure you still pour out all the coffee. If the water is in contact with coffee it’s still brewing and can become pretty bitter.
