Do You Know About Coffee Filters That Are Often Used?

If you often drink coffee and understand the process of coffee, you know that coffee filter paper is not only a necessary process for coffee, but also affects the taste of coffee. However, many people think that coffee filters are similar, and you can choose whatever you want. Is it really?

Coffee filter paper is mostly made of wood, and the color of the pulp after cooking is mostly brown, and it takes several stages of bleaching to turn white. There are two general types of coffee filters: bleached and unbleached.

The main difference between the two is that a bleached coffee filter means that the coffee filter has been bleached and the filter looks whiter. The unbleached coffee filter means that the coffee filter has not been bleached, and the filter paper looks close to light brown.

Knowing the difference between bleached and unbleached coffee filters, some friends are a little confused, which one is more suitable to use? Are bleached coffee filters bad?

In fact, bleaching filter paper has strict requirements in terms of material selection, process and quality control. The materials used are very safe, and the degree of harm to the human body can be ignored. So when we choose, we can choose according to our own needs.

However, one thing we need to pay attention to is that although the log color filter paper has less bleaching process, the taste of the filter paper itself is aggravated. This requires us to fully wet the filter paper with boiling water when brewing coffee, and some of them are wetted at least 2 to 3 times to reduce the smell of the paper into the coffee.

There are many coffee filter papers on the market, and the filter water of each brand is different. The difference in water filterability will cause the coffee soaking time to be different, otherwise the coffee will definitely not taste good.

Therefore, in the process of making coffee, in order to maintain consistency, it is very important to keep the coffee steeping time as standardized as possible, and to understand the filterability of the filter paper.

In addition, if you observe carefully, you will find that in the process of brewing coffee, the relevant personnel sometimes wet the filter paper, which can increase the fit with the filter cup and make the coffee taste more intense. Of course, the step of wetting the filter paper can also be omitted, and the powder can be directly washed directly.
