Precautions:
1. The softness and hardness of good boiled coffee will affect the extraction effect of coffee, and the cleanliness of water quality will affect the overall taste. Therefore, please do not pick up unfiltered tap coffee from your home, you can consider pure water or distilled water. Making coffee is the same as making tea, please use fresh good water. After all, more than 90% of a cup of coffee is water. 2. Use too little coffee powder with sufficient amount of coffee beans may cause astringency or light and tasteless, but you don't need to put too much at one time. According to the SCAA (American Specialty Coffee Association) coffee brewing standard, the benchmark dosage is: "One flat spoon" (about 8 grams) of coffee beans (powder) to make "120 ml" of coffee. Please adjust your coffee consumption according to this ratio.
3. Identify freshly roasted coffee beans as fresh food. "Freshly roasted" is the basic condition for a good cup of coffee. What is the difference between stale coffee beans and isatis root? So please avoid buying without a date.
