With these hot days continuing, I really want to drink a delicious iced coffee.
Here's how to brew a refreshing iced coffee using El Paraiso Farm lychee beans, perfect for days like these!

 

The brand I recommend this time is "[CSLC] Colombia/El Paraiso Farm/Castillo/Double Anaerobic/Lychee".

As the name suggests, it starts with a fresh lychee-like flavor, and as time passes, the taste mellows, revealing a rich, peach-like sweetness.
With its rich aroma, this is a truly unique brand that you won't tire of from the first sip to the last.

Turning this into iced coffee creates a refreshing flavor that's perfect for gulping down on a hot summer day. Its sweetness, reminiscent of peach tea, and clean aftertaste make it a drink you'll want to keep coming back for more. It's a truly addictive taste.

Now, let me introduce the extraction recipe.

 

[Extraction Recipe]
Beans: 30g
Extraction amount: 250ml
Pouring amount: 500ml
Extraction time: 2 minutes 30 seconds; Grind size: Medium; Water temperature: 91-92 degrees Celsius

① Grind the beans to a medium grind.
Generally, when brewing iced coffee, a fine grind is often used, but this time, in order to bring out the refreshing flavor that is characteristic of [CSLC], we will use a medium grind.

 

 

② Fill the server with ice until it's full, and prepare to brew.
A water temperature of 91-92 degrees Celsius is recommended.

 

 

③ Carefully pour a thin stream of hot water evenly into Shin , and let it steep for 45 seconds.

 

 

④ Once the steeping is complete, pour the hot water again in a thin stream, slowly working in a circular motion from Shin center outwards.

 

 

⑤ Once you've poured it all the way to the outside, pour it back in. Continue this process until you reach the target extraction volume of 250ml.
The key is to brew it slowly and carefully.
For iced coffee, you need to take into account that it will be diluted with ice when brewing.
Therefore, to ensure that the flavor remains even after being diluted with ice, we recommend brewing it slowly and carefully.

 

 

⑥ Once you reach 250ml, stop pouring and remove the dripper.
For a better-tasting cup of coffee, remove the dripper even if there is still hot water left in it.
It's not that it's undrinkable, but the components of coffee are extracted in a specific order, and it's said that the last components to come out are often those that cause bitterness and unpleasant aftertastes.

⑦ Stir thoroughly and let the brewed coffee cool.
Thorough stirring helps to balance the flavors.

⑧ Pour into a glass and it's done.
You can drink it with ice in the glass, or if you don't like it too cold, you can drink it as is.

What did you think?

This iced coffee has a refreshing taste that makes you want to drink it especially during the summer.
I encourage you all to give it a try.

We will continue to introduce recipes that focus on specific brands, so please look forward to them!
