How to fold coffee filter paper

The first step is to ensure that the filter cup and filter paper are normal. Qian Jie likes to use the resin version of the V60 filter cup because in the standard industrial mass production, the resin material is the best product with the smallest error. Like the ceramic version, you can touch the filter cup at an angle of less than 60 degrees. It is best to choose the products of big manufacturers for filter paper, for one thing, the workmanship is standard, and for another, the quality is guaranteed.

Next, we need to pay attention to these details when folding filter paper. One side of the tapered filter paper is a suture, and the suture will be harder. First, fold along the suture.

Then open the filter paper.

Butt the crease lines on both sides, and be careful not to press out the crease at the bottom of the cone.

Squeeze the original two crease lines and flatten the creases so that they will not tilt on the filter cup at the back. Press the crease repeatedly with your right hand and flatten it first. Be careful not to produce new creases.

Then there is an important detail, that is, the seam at the bottom of the cone is convex, which may get stuck in the rib under the filter cup and cause the filter paper to be misplaced. Therefore, folding the protruding part along the cone shape can effectively avoid this phenomenon.

Then put it on the filter cup, press the filter paper and stick it on the filter cup to confirm whether it fits. If it doesn't fit, slowly adjust the position to ensure it fits.

Then don't let go, hold the edge of the filter paper and the filter cup with your fingertips, fix the position, and then wet the filter paper with hot water to ensure that the filter paper fits the filter cup safely.

Of course, under the condition of not wetting the filter paper, it is easier to make the filter paper stick to the filter cup, that is, the weight of coffee powder itself is used to "hold down" the filter paper to prevent it from "sticking up". So wet filter paper can also make the filter cup fit well.
