System Büttner Coffee Maker
"System Büttner" coffee makers (German: ) have been a type of manual and semi-automatic coffee makers combining coffee steeping (infusion, full immersion) with drip coffee, drip-filtering (percolation). Overview The idea to combine steeping with drip-filtering was utilized by the Berlin-based coffee roaster Carl Artur Büttner (also written as Carl Arthur Büttner) in his 1926 invention of a manual zero-bypass coffee brewing, zero-bypass flat-bottom coffee filter, flat bottom coffee maker consisting of four parts, all made out of porcelain: a coffee filter, filter pot (, "O") with lid (, "D"), saucer (, "U") and coffee pot (, "K"). The filter pot featured a through-glazed porcelain filter with triangularly-arranged slits with some air space below. The captured hot air causing mild micro-turbulences on the underside of the coffee grounds were said to help avoid clogging. Steeping was achieved utilizing a valving mechanism stopping the flow through the filter by a specially desi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Coffee Steeping
Coffee preparation is the process of turning coffee beans into a beverage. While the particular steps vary with the type of coffee and with the raw materials, the process includes four basic steps: raw coffee beans must be roasted, the roasted coffee beans must then be ground, and the ground coffee must then be mixed with hot or cold water (depending on the method of brewing) for a specific time ( brewed), the liquid coffee extraction must be separated from the used grounds, and finally, if desired, the extracted coffee is combined with other elements of the desired beverage, such as sweeteners, dairy products, dairy alternatives, or toppings (such as shaved chocolate). Coffee is usually brewed hot, at close to the boiling point of water, immediately before drinking, yielding a hot beverage capable of scalding if splashed or spilled; if not consumed promptly, coffee is often sealed into a vacuum flask or insulated bottle to maintain its temperature. In most areas, coffee ma ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
