I really didn’t fall in love with hand-brewed coffee because of Eddie Peng

As a loyal fan of coffee, Eddie Peng said on Weibo in 2016 that he liked the taste of hand-brewed coffee. For a long time after coffee entered China, most people probably hurriedly tore open the package of instant coffee, poured boiling water over it, and thought it was a cup of fragrant "life-extending coffee".

Of course, the "majority" includes me (the author), but later I gave up instant coffee and started drinking lattes, mochas, and cappuccinos made by baristas in coffee shops, under the pretext of pursuing the taste of coffee. Later, I felt that it was not only necessary to drink delicious coffee, but also to drink it for its health value, that is, to maintain my figure by drinking Americano and espresso.

My new understanding of coffee came on the second day of my employment at Zhonghe Fashion Coffee Academy. My senior introduced me to the academy environment, coffee classrooms and course overview. I was only amazed at the spacious venue and advanced equipment... After a round of walking, the highlight came. The coffee teacher made me a cup of hand-brewed coffee on the spot. After tasting it, I asked the teacher for two more cups. If any coffee shop in Shanghai can make hand-brewed coffee of this quality and maintain the stability of the taste, I will definitely apply for a lifetime membership without hesitation. From then on, perhaps the happiest thing is to come to work every day.

Hand-brewed coffee gives me the feeling more like tasting tea. Each type of coffee bean has a different flavor, with hints of nuts, roses, fruits, etc. Drinking it slowly, one sip at a time, has a refreshing taste, and you can keep savoring its aroma after you finish drinking it. This is coffee, this is the coffee I want!

In an era of increasing demand for coffee, people's pursuit of coffee quality has gradually shifted away from the fast-extracted "portable coffee", and the trend of boutique coffee has gradually emerged. Hand-brewed coffee is the sedimentation of coffee culture, because the brewing method of hand-brewed coffee can maximize the flavor of single-origin coffee. From grinding to extraction, water temperature control, brewing techniques, and adding your judgment and care, it is a cup of boutique coffee with soul and ideas, which cannot be replaced by machines.

Based on European and American coffee skills training, Zhonghe Fashion Coffee Academy has combined the Chinese learning habits and the needs of the Chinese coffee market to develop and launch the "Boutique Barista Course" . Under the careful guidance of Zhonghe Fashion's excellent internationally certified coffee instructors, students will complete the transformation from coffee novices to professional baristas through the study of professional courses such as basic coffee knowledge, coffee skills training, retail service skills, and daily equipment maintenance.
