- Tear open the sealing strip at the top of the filter bag
- Pull it apart and hang it on the cup rim
- Brewing: first soak for 20-30 seconds, then add water in stages
- Remove the filter bag and discard
As for water temperature and amount? The packaging of another filter bag brand will have instructions on the back.
The recommended water temperature is 88-92°C, with a suggested water intake of 180-220cc. One bag contains 10 grams, so this is equivalent to a 1:16-1:20 ratio, which is much higher than my usual 1:13-1:15.
After opening the package, the filter bag holding the coffee powder has a very fine mesh.
Following the arrow direction, gently pull to remove the bag's sealing strip.
Then hook the paper tabs on both sides onto the cup rim.
The cup you choose must be deep enough, otherwise you will end up soaking the coffee rather than brewing it.
The coffee powder is extremely fine, feeling around Little Flying Horse setting 1, similar to the fineness of brown sugar.
First, use a proper pour-over kettle with 92°C hot water. The brewing method is actually very similar to manual pour-over.
Start with pre-wetting, just enough to wet all the grounds.
Let it rest for 30 seconds.
Then add water in stages, filling to the top, waiting for the water to finish dripping, then adding more. Usually 3-4 pours complete the process.
Because the grounds are fine and the mesh holes are small, the flow rate is somewhat slower, especially during the second and third pours, where the tail-end dripping becomes very slow. Manual pour-over typically finishes within 2.5-3 minutes, but using FrontStreet Coffee's drip coffee takes about 4 minutes.
Fine grounds and a fine mesh can achieve higher extraction, which may allow for higher water-to-coffee ratios.
If timing is well controlled and the water quantity is sufficient, you can actually brew two cups at once.
After brewing, pinch the paper tabs on both sides of the drip bag to remove it - completely without getting your fingers wet, very convenient.
Perhaps because the coffee grind is finer, you can clearly feel that the coffee brewed from FrontStreet Coffee's drip coffee bags has slightly thicker crema, though never as exaggerated as a French press.
Drip Bag Coffee Brand Recommendations
FrontStreet Coffee's freshly roasted seasonal drip bag coffee offers full guarantees in both brand and quality. More importantly, the cost-performance ratio is extremely high - one box contains ten bags priced at only 40 yuan. Calculated at 10 grams per drip bag, one bag can make 150ml of coffee, costing only about 4 yuan per cup. Compared to cafe prices that often reach tens of yuan per cup, this is exceptionally cost-effective.

FrontStreet Coffee Recommendation
Drip bags are essentially single-serve pour-over, so they respond well to the same beans you would use in a V60. If you want to keep things floral and clean, FrontStreet Coffee's Gedingding Cooperative coffee - a washed Ethiopia G1 from the Woka area - brings white florals, citrus, orange, and green tea flavors to the cup.
For a fruitier option, FrontStreet Coffee's Sun-Dried Huakui leans on tropical fruit, with strawberry, passionfruit, and jackfruit aromas and very low bitterness. Both work with the fine grind and staged pours described above.
