Rikuura at Home VOL.3 "How to Brew Delicious Coffee

How to brew delicious coffee

Hello everyone! I'm Azumi, your navigator.
The Golden Week of self-restraint, which will surely be a valuable experience in your life, is over, and I think many people will be returning to work from May 7th.

The state of emergency has been extended until the end of May.
I think we still cannot let our guard down, but these days I hope that we can all get through this together without accumulating too much stress.
In this situation, I wonder if I can create some relaxing time at home with just a little effort.
With that in mind today,Land at Home"We would like to deliver this message to you.

Do you like coffee? I love it.
I love working on music while drinking delicious coffee at my favorite cafe. It's the perfect place to come up with lyrics and let my imagination flow.
I'm currently in self-restraint so I can't go to my favorite cafe.
However, with a bit of creativity, I was able to create a cafe atmosphere at home, so I decided to go all out and buy some coffee beans, a mill that can grind enough beans for two cups, and a French press that can make two cups of coffee!
I bought it, but how can I make it taste good?

So, we asked Satomi, who works at a cafe in Norikura Kogen, how to make delicious coffee! Check out the video for more details.

~How to brew delicious coffee: French press~

[Tools used this time]

• coffee mill
• French press (2 cups)
• Favorite coffee beans 
  *If you don't have a coffee grinder, you can use powder already in the coffee grinder!
• 320ml freshly boiled water

[Procedure] (for 2 cups of coffee)

1. Place 20g of coffee beans into a coffee grinder.
   
2. Grind the beans into powder using a coffee grinder.
   
3. Remove the lid from the French press and add all the freshly ground flour.
   
4. First, pour boiling water over the powder so that it is submerged, and let it steep for 20 to 30 seconds.
   
5. Then pour all the water into the French press.
   
6. Close the lid of the French press and let it sit for 3 minutes.
   
7. After that, press slowly. The key is to press slowly so that no unpleasant flavors come out.
   
8. Once you've finished pressing, slowly pour the coffee into your favorite mug. The key here is to pour slowly so as not to bring out any unpleasant flavors.

That's how to brew delicious coffee.

It was my first time grinding, pressing and brewing coffee myself, but coffee that takes a little effort is delicious!
Then we had a wonderful snack time eating the adzuki bean scones.
I would also like to take this opportunity to find my favorite mug and explore the coffee beans that I am so fond of.

Speaking of coffee beans, I would like to share a wonderful story about the coffee beans that Satomi used this time. The roasted coffee beans are an original brand of Norikura Kogen called "Norikura Pioneer Roasters".Norikura at Home VOL.1Hana, who appeared in the previous article, and her husband Setsu run Norikura Pioneer Rosters. With the motto "Leave it better than you found it," and "We will give back in an even better environment than the one we see now," they roast beans that are carefully selected with an eye on the environment and the background of the coffee beans.

Currently, they are accepting orders for Norikura Kogen and Matsumoto city, but they are preparing to deliver coffee beans online to the whole country in the future."It's fine to have an order delivered to your home, but our greatest wish is for customers to come to Norikura Kogen to pick up their coffee beans in person after placing their order. We want to cherish the connections between people."These words really capture the personalities of the two. The story begins when Hana, who loves coffee, would always give coffee goods as a birthday gift to Setsu. One day, she gave him some tools to roast his own coffee, which led to the creation of Norikura Pioneer Roasters. What a heartwarming story!
