    @Gaswafers 6 місяців тому +2309

    Because the coffee is exposed to a partial vacuum as it enters the final chamber, dissolved gases(such as CO2) are pulled out of the liquid. This reduces the formation of carbonic acid, making it taste less sour, and allows the bitter oils to emulsify better, reducing the bitter aftertaste. The effect might be minor on this model because of how small it is, but equipment like this can definitely produce some kind of noticeable result.

      Coffe is never exposed to any vacuum in here. Shows how you don't understand what's really going on inside this device physically.
      And all you need to do to get rid of dissolved gasses is just boil the water, since high temperature decreases their solubility.

    • @puchacz199
      @puchacz199 6 місяців тому +13

      Also the bitterness comes from overboiling the coffee. This doesn't happen here, because the water temperature falls before it gets to fill the upper glass.

    they actually made normal electric coffee brewers out of this concept! i have one, it's called the SunBeam Coffee Master, they were in production in the 1940s, when their only real competition was percolators, and these had the distinct advantage that the coffee is never boiled by the heating element, so it tastes WAY better than a percolator.
    you fill the bottom with water, put your grounds in the top, flip the switch, it simply boils once to go up, the switch senses the overheating and flips off thanks to a bimetallic strip, then it slowly flushes back down as brewed coffee. take the top part with all the used grounds off, and serve it from the pot.
    i got it because i love coffee and it was a cute little novelty for like $15 at a garage sale, it has a bit of a learning curve but once you figure it out it's really easy to use and actually makes some of the best coffee I've ever had

    I genuinely love the smoothness of this brewing method which is really satisfying. It works like a mix between french press and moka pot, but it's quite enjoyable to watch and drink. The result ends up being fairly low on the alkaline bitterness, though it could turn out to be somewhat overly acidic. Not my favorite (which is the Chemex pour-over) but quite close. Works really well with certain beans (my favorite being Ethiopian ones)

The directions suggested adding the measure of coffee to the upper chamber prior to starting the brew cycle on a hotplate. The average brewing time was about 12 minutes.

    I'm using this, just using alcohol burner. You need to mix it before removing the heat so that the grounds collect on the filter and make it easier to remove. Also the heat must be enough so water stays up but not boiling. Generally around a minute is enough for it to be done. Tastes better than normal coffee because the cloth filter does a bitter job of removing some acids n bitterness.

    The vacuum coffee maker used to be popular in the 1950s, but its fatal flaw was the bottom flask would crack if it wasn't taken off the heat in time. A french press works much better.

    I'm more of a tea kinda guy, but I really wouldn't mind incorporating a bit of Coffee in there from time to time, cause this honestly looks so cool.

    Try a Bialetti Moka, it works on the same principle since 100 years, but the hot water is forced through coffee powder in the filter, so you do not have powder in your coffee.

      The coffee you get out of this is completely different than a moka pot. Closer to drip, and the filter keeps the grounds out

      this isnt quite like a moka pot, because the water isnt being forced through the coffee by the pressure, what its more like is just a regular pour over brewer which has its temperature regulated by the pressure of the lower container. basically, you'd achieve this result with a kettle set to the same temp as the water once it has been pushed upwards. The upwards pushing has nothing to do with the coffee brewing. basically, its even stupider than you thought.

      Brikka is better than the moka pot. Although the newer ones aren't so good.

      Moka pots are a similar concept but produces something closer to espresso than drip coffee! It's a great way to dip into home espresso making. I got my moka new for $20

    This is my favorite way to be my morning coffee. It's super smooth and the coffee has very little bitterness if any at all. It's called a vacuum pot or siphon pot. 😊

    We drank coffee with this and other various types of this apparatus in Indonesia. I like the one where you can flip it as both glasses were bulbs. Never knew the name of them though. They just were, no one used their name. We just used them and drank from them.

      This isn't a moka pot it's just a vacuum coffee maker. They used to be vary popular they are vary easy to use. I have the stove top version with bakelite handles.
      Vacuum or syphon coffee maker has been around since 1830s the moka pot was invented in 1933 103 years later. So moka pot 90 years old vacuum or syphon coffee 193 years old. My vacuum pot is over 100 years old and still working condition and is made of stainless steel.
