<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="138" >, what kind of coffee machine do you want to buy</h1> coffee

Unplugged now is more popular hand punch and mocha pot these two, I myself bought a mocha pot, when I buy it is very excited, but in fact use very little.

Coffee machine plug-in has fully automatic and semi-automatic, fully automatic is very expensive and more convenient, but players generally play semi-automatic, after all, semi-automatic is more dependent on the experience of doing coffee people, it is more elaborate.

Semi-automatic also divided into American coffee machines, espresso machines, the main difference is that the espresso machine can do concentration, with milk foam function,

My personal advice is to buy Italian, after all, you want to drink American direct espresso heating water, and I really love to drink lattes with milk bubbles, which is perfect for beginner players.

Here is a picture that very simply distinguishes the difference between various types of coffee, although it is not so authentic,

But drink what you want to drink, you have to be so authentic, and you don't do research.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="146" > two, a century-old enterprise established from a blacksmith shop</h1>

Severin is a century-old enterprise in Germany, full name Severin Elektro (Severin Elektro), founded in 1892 in a blacksmith shop, once made curtain rods, aluminum tableware, roller coasters, trolleys, until 1952 began to transform household appliances, to 1962 began to focus on coffee machine business, since Severin has been established for 129 years.

The German self-media Afu, which said that Chinese, has also recommended this brand.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="147" > three, out of the box</h1>

My kitchen is not big, but it also has a place for a coffee machine,

This time Severin, KA5995 came, and the previous coffee toy machine was immediately eliminated.

This model is KA5995, I looked at the seven german official website, more than the domestic products, The Italian style is the beginning of KA, the code name of 59XX

Germany also has a no pressure gauge is the KA5994, then this should be an upgrade of the 5994.

In addition to the coffee machine, there are also giveaway pressed powder stamps and milk foam tanks.

Look, KA5995 is called the enhanced version, I think it is for the KA5994 that does not exist in China.

The main selling points are also written [pressure display, ESE support, precise temperature control, steam &amp; hot water]

What do others know, what does this ESE support mean?

Severin has a unified packaging design style, that is, it will use a red product structure diagram to explain the buying point in one of them

ESE is actually a coffee easy bag, what is a coffee easy bag, said when opening the box.

Don't forget, this is a 129-year-old century-old enterprise, Chinese named Schweirer.

After an excited unbox, everything was taken out, and there were three filters.

The three filters are two cups and one cup according to the different shades, and the coffee bag filter (just said ESE)

Interesting is the third filter, which is ESE, which I didn't know what it was before.

The coffee machine I bought before also has this filter, I have not known what to use, I only know what this thing is today, how to use

I also deliberately went to Taobao to check it out, coffee bags, coffee easy packages, and did not see any for sale.

There is also a long handle, which is particularly firm to hold and very textured

Indeed, a century-old enterprise built from a blacksmith's shop, the quality of all metal products is very good

There are 600g of this powder hammer, and when you press the powder in your hand, you don't need to exert much force, press it, and turn it around

Looking back at the main coffee machine, the long one is a compact design, which is quite out of place.

Most of them are stainless steel structures, and the top is a cup holder for warm cups, and it is no problem to put two or three cups

The most conspicuous is this pressure gauge, which is also the enhanced part of the [Enhanced Version]."

Looking at the side photo, the main functional areas are concentrated on the right side, and the milk foam steam nozzle and steam valve are on this side

The water tank is in the back, pull up to remove,

The steam valve is knob-type, and the steam nozzle is rotated to the lower steam nozzle to start spraying steam.

The steam nozzle has an anti-scalding silicone design, which avoids overheating the steam nozzle to prevent it from being scalded.

The control panel is in the upper part, a total of four buttons, start the machine and press the opening key on the right, the middle two lights will begin to flash, and it will begin to heat up.

The coffee cup can also be put on the cup holder, warm a warm cup, and so on the flash pause, the light is always on, that is, the heating is completed, you can put on the coffee handle

Press the button, press a single cup, press a double cup, and the amount of water is automatic (you can also customize the time)

Once the espresso is done, you can tap the milk bubble button on the left and you can make the milk bubble.

Looking at this angle again, at this time I just put on the coffee handle once, dipped a little bit of coffee powder, and it was relatively clean.

Even if the coffee machine is out of the box, this crowd test also has a sending electric grinder, and also open a box first

The same red design on one side will highlight the selling point.

The design style is more uniform, a look is the same product produced, the lid zenith is transparent, easy to check the thickness of the coffee grinding.

Knife head double page structure, cup depth is relatively shallow, a moment to see the grinding effect.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="148" > four, make a cup of coffee and try it</h1>

Let me make a cup of coffee and try it

First of all, I'm not a particularly good coffee bean, and a beginner like me isn't at the level where you need to study the roasting of coffee beans.

Just look at the most common coffee beans purchased by Aunt Zhang's discount information, so the coffee beans may not be very fresh.

Just try how effective the grinder in hand is,

You can't hear the sound, you can feel it very clearly, the rotation is very smooth and powerful.

I know that many coffee lovers think that coffee must be polished by hand, but tired, time-consuming, I want to sleep a little more in the morning.

Just know that the espresso powder is more delicate, and then on the coffee machine, there is a pressure hammer is a texture.

I just said that this is not a particularly good coffee bean, but under the 15pa pressure of the severin coffee machine, it also presses out a very rich grease.

My previous toy machine will only produce a little grease, which is the difference (but it is true that the old beans will be a little sour, and I can taste it as a beginner player)

Then pull a flower to try, to be honest, I don't know how to pull flowers, although I have seen a lot of video tutorials, and even tried to practice with dish soap, but I have never succeeded

After all, the pressure of my toy machine is not stable at all, and it disappears when it hits the steam, and the pressure of this KA5995 is very easy to foam.

This time listening to the sound is different, I think maybe I can do a good job.

Of course, it failed in the end, but I think the quality of the milk foam this time was much better than before.

So I decided to write down a session and see if I could learn to pull flowers in seven days.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="149" > five, see if you can learn to pull flowers in seven days</h1>

In fact, seven days can pull a good flower are considered bragging, generally have to learn for a long time to learn a painting heart, mainly coffee this thing can not always drink, drink too much panic.

So don't feel as if you've improved your technique a little bit, and drinking two cups in a row is not good for your body.

I'll try two cups a day and see if I can learn to pull a flower by the deadline.

Although I really can't pull flowers, but the tutorial is not less, I will sort out the knowledge points I have learned

To pull flowers, you need to complete two qualifications,

1, milk foam to be qualified.

2, the technique should be qualified.

First of all, let's talk about what kind of milk foam is qualified?

It is beaten into a more delicate creamy shape, do not have large bubbles, so that the big bubbles float on the coffee, there is no way to pull the flowers, if there is a big bubble, use a spoon to put it out.

1, use whole milk

Speaking of milk to my strength, full milk is a certain fat content, the principle of milk bubble is to spray hot water vapor, with the air on the surface of the milk into the milk, protein and air bubbles wrapped together, and fat can provide this part of the viscous role, so that small bubbles can not be so easy to dissipate, which is why with skim milk bubbles will be defoamed for a while, the above no chemical reaction, are physical reactions.

If there is really no whole milk, you ,,,, buy it, skim milk is really not good, and it is not good to add cream (but it is delicious to add cream, you can try it).

2, milk to refrigerate

I have seen a popular science video that is particularly good, saying that milk will form a more delicate foam when it is in a normal body temperature

The steam is too hot, so the initial temperature of the milk should be lower.

If it is done more extremely, the milk should be refrigerated, and the milk foam tank should also be refrigerated

(If you are in a hurry, the milk tank can be frozen, and there are ice cubes in the milk, I have not tried,)

When the preparation was over, I started to make milk bubbles

The first knowledge point is that wearing a steel pipe is particularly easy to beat the milk foam, but the milk foam is relatively thick and not delicate enough, and you can wear the steel pipe to beat it when you usually drink.

Then if you want to pull the flowers, it is better to remove the steel pipe, and the milk foam will be more delicate.

I removed the rubber and steel pipes of the steam nozzle so that everyone could see the angle clearly.

When playing milk foam, whether it is left or right rotation, anyway, let the steam pipe and the cup body form an angle, so that through the spray of steam, the milk will be driven to rotate up, the steam nozzle should just go deep into the surface of the milk, when the milk bubble makes a soft sound

A very sharp clanging sound will form a large bubble, and the milk tank will be low;

If there is no sound or the sound is not continuous, the milk tank is high;

Anyway, just try it, you can float the milk foam tank up and down, and slowly you will understand it.

It's all about the fake handle, so let's start practicing.

In order not to pull down, I also bought the Italian spelling beans recommended by my friends.

We don't understand, the aroma of the open bag is still very good.

This time hit a double cup, the grease is still very rich.

After a few days of practice, this is my final work, and it is already a bit of a pulling flower

The new beans are indeed much stronger than my discounted beans in taste, not so sour, and it is estimated that my grinding bean technology is better.

Milk foam is considered to be done, in fact, this is very simple, and then it can be successful basically every time, so milk foam is basically an experience priority skill.

You have to play successfully at least once, you can know how to fight, then the next step is to pull flowers,

The method of pulling flowers should be more difficult, remember this sentence [high open low go]

High open, that is, at the beginning of the milk tank is higher, the milk bubble poured into the espresso has a potential energy, you can break through the espresso grease into the bottom of the cup,

When you want to pull the flowers, the position of the milk bubble bar should be lowered, so that the milk bubble will push a picture in the fat of the espresso.

This picture is going to make us rely on the technique to paint, it is recommended to see the video I just recommended at the beginning, it is really how much milk is poured in the milk tank, what the sound should be, and how high the milk tank is, all of which are clear and clear to you.

Well, keep practicing, and finally consumed 1.5L of whole milk on the 5th day, and I finally completed my first crooked and oblique heart type pull, even if I succeeded.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="150" > six, advanced features</h1>

In addition to the basic espresso function, see the instructions of the severin also have hot water function, memory brewing function, various self-settings,

Players with more skilled techniques can make a coffee that suits them better

One point I want to mention is the descaling function, severin this coffee machine can automatically remind us how many cups of coffee we have made according to the water hardness we set ourselves.

Why am I mentioning this feature? Because my previous coffee machine was useless because of a summer, it stinked, and then I found a free time to completely disassemble the coffee machine, even the small boiler of pure metal inside was opened and brushed, I think hardcore players may have dismantled the coffee machine, but we beginner players better still have a function to remove scale to assist better.

I didn't take a picture when I dismantled the coffee machine, probably like this, without this function is really troublesome.

So I may have to emphasize this descaling function, it is really more intimate.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="151" > seven, buying advice</h1>

I just wanted to buy an Italian coffee machine, but also in Aunt Zhang read a lot of big guys articles, to post it to know to see a variety of popular science posts

However, it was still hindered by the tight wallet and did not listen to the old man,I bought a toy machine without listening to persuasion, and now I know that I am blind to my cheap coffee powder.

You can really consider seven, this KA5995, which is simple enough to use for beginner players who want to drink Italian, and a choice with enough customization for hardcore players.
