Vietnamese Phin Filter Coffee
The Vietnamese Phin filter is the traditional method for brewing robust and flavorful coffee in Vietnam.
We’ll learn how to use this slow-dripping system to extract the full-bodied taste of locally-roasted beans.
Gently pressing the ground coffee into the filter, we’ll watch as the hot water slowly percolates through, creating a concentrated brew that’s then mixed with condensed milk for a delightfully creamy result.
This hands-on experience allows us to appreciate the artistry and patience behind a perfect cup of Vietnamese coffee, prepared the authentic way using the iconic Phin filter.
Egg Coffee
While the Vietnamese Phin filter produces a bold and concentrated brew, the egg coffee offers a delightfully creamy and indulgent experience.
We’ll learn to prepare this unique coffee by blending freshly brewed coffee with egg yolks, condensed milk, and sugar. The result is a velvety, frothy delight that balances sweetness and bitterness.
Our instructor will guide us through the preparation steps, ensuring we master the technique.
Egg coffee is a beloved Vietnamese specialty that showcases the country’s innovative coffee culture. Sipping this luxurious beverage will be a highlight of our coffee-making journey.
Coconut Coffee
Moving from the creamy indulgence of egg coffee, we now explore the refreshing allure of coconut coffee. Infusing aromatic coffee with the natural sweetness of coconut, this unique beverage delights the senses.
We’ll learn to expertly craft this tropical delight, blending the robust coffee flavor with the creamy essence of coconut. The result is a refreshing and well-balanced drink that’s perfect for sipping on a warm day.
We’ll discover how the coconut’s flavor complements the coffee, creating a harmonious and invigorating experience for our palates.
Salt Coffee
Enhancing the natural flavors of coffee while reducing bitterness, salt coffee is a unique and intriguing brew. In our coffee making course, we’ll explore this distinctive preparation.
First, we’ll dissolve a pinch of salt in the brewed coffee, stirring gently. This simple addition dramatically alters the taste profile, bringing out the coffee’s inherent sweetness and reducing any harsh or acidic notes.
The salt also helps to balance the coffee’s natural bitterness, creating a smooth, well-rounded flavor. We’ll discuss the science behind this technique and how it can elevate even the most ordinary cup of coffee.
