How To Make Filter Coffee

 Hi Dear,

    Filter Coffee is a coffee drink made with milk and decoction. Outside India this "Filter Coffee" is referred as "Drip Brew Coffee".

    Making of this Filter Coffee is very easy. I will tell you how to make aromatic Filter Coffee. For this first you must have a perfect Filter Coffee powder. Am using a Filter Coffee powder which contains 80% coffee and 20% chicory (does not contain any caffeine but resembles coffee in all other ways). Chicory enhances taste, aroma and makes the coffee mellow.



  How to make Filter Coffee :

  To make filter coffee only we need to take 3 simple steps :

  1. Heat 3/4 cup of full fat milk gently and slowly till the milk begins to rise in the vessel. Switch off the flame.
  2. Then in a glass, pour 1/4 cup of decoction (Preparation of decoction explained in detail below) and add 1 tablespoon of dark brown sugar(you can change the measurement  according to your taste) and mix it well.
  3. Then add the boiled milk . Mix it thoroughly until you get the coffee froth. 

        Filter Coffee Ready !!!

       (Note: Do not reheat the mixed coffee )

How to make Filter Coffee Decoction :

    There are 3 simple ways to make the Filter Coffee Decoction.

1. Without any Filter.

  • When the water is boiling, add 3 teaspoon of filter coffee powder.
  • Switch off the flame immediately and cover the pan with lid and wait for 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Then slowly take the decoction alone. Leave the residues behind.

Second I will tell you how to make Decoction with South Indian Stainless Steel Filter :

In this South Indian Stainless Steel filter, there will be two chambers Upper (Brewer) and Lower (Decoction Collector).

  • Attach the Lower and Upper Chambers.
  • Add 1-1/2 tablespoon of filter coffee powder in the upper chamber.
  • Add 1/2 cup of fully boiled hot water.The water should be very hot
  • Then place the plunger into the upper chamber. Close it tightly.
