Vietnamese coffee, how to get a rich and flavourful experience that tantalises the taste buds? This traditional coffee, brewed using a Vietnamese Phin filter, offers a unique and aromatic delight.
Vietnamese coffee is not just a drink; it’s a cultural experience. The Phin filter allows for a slow, deliberate brewing process that extracts deep, intense flavours. The result? A cup of coffee that’s both strong and smooth, perfect for a big day.
How to use the Phin:
Assemble the phin atop your cup. Once you add your desired amount of coffee, we bloom the coffee grounds by adding just enough hot water to cover the coffee grounds and allow for the coffee to release its gases. Once the phin stops dripping, add the small perforated plate on top and pour remainder of the hot water into the body of the phin. Now, let it work its magic for a few minutes and when the phin stops dripping - it is ready to enjoy.
Phin Filters: Aluminium vs. Stainless Steel
When it comes to Phin filters, choosing the right material can make a difference in your brewing experience. Traditional aluminium Phin filters are lightweight and offer excellent heat conductivity, which helps maintain the optimal brewing temperature. This ensures that the coffee grounds extract more evenly, resulting in a richer flavour. However, aluminium filters can be a bit fragile and may bend if not handled carefully - but they can also be easily bent back into shape.
On the other hand, stainless steel Phin filters are more durable and resistant to bending or breaking. They are also less likely to retain flavours from previous brews, making them easier to clean. However, stainless steel does not conduct heat as effectively as aluminium, which might affect the brewing temperature and flavour extraction.
At our store, we offer the aluminium Phin filter that embody the traditional Vietnamese coffee brewing experience. While they require a bit more care in handling, their superior heat conductivity ensures a perfectly brewed cup of coffee every time.
