Last Updated: 2026/01/27, Today a friend asked me: I often brew drip coffee at home, what are the health effects of drinking drip coffee regularly over time? Let me explain this to everyone.

Drip bag coffee is a portable drip coffee made from roasted coffee beans ground to the appropriate fineness and loaded into special drip bag coffee packets for independent sealing. The coffee brewed from drip bag coffee is typically black coffee without sugar, milk, or additives.

Pros and Cons of Drinking Drip Bag Coffee

According to "The Science of Coffee Aroma," drinking black coffee in moderation daily not only provides refreshing and weight-loss effects but also enhances vascular elasticity and prevents cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, excessive coffee intake can cause excessive stimulation of the central nervous system due to caffeine, leading to heart palpitations, cardiac discomfort, and symptoms of over-excitement. Psychologists also suggest that daily excessive coffee intake can increase psychological stress.

Therefore, while coffee is delicious, it should not be consumed excessively~ Generally, a 10g drip bag coffee can brew about 150ml of coffee. Everyone should limit their intake to no more than two cups per day based on their personal condition~

How to Brew Delicious Drip Bag Coffee?

Drip bag coffee follows the same principle as pour-over coffee, both using hot water at the appropriate temperature to extract suitable substances from properly ground coffee powder, which is why it's also called a portable version of pour-over coffee.

To make delicious coffee, the freshness of the coffee beans/powder is extremely important, so selecting and using fresh drip bags is key to making good coffee. FrontStreet Coffee currently ships all coffee beans and drip bag coffee products within 5 days after the beans are roasted.

The production of drip bag coffee involves grinding the roasted beans immediately after they come out of the oven and cool down, then quickly packaging them into independent sealed 10g packets to preserve the aroma and flavor of the drip bag coffee. They are sold in 100g/bag net weight.

How to Choose the Right Drip Bag Coffee for You?

The taste of drip bag coffee depends on the taste of the coffee beans themselves. If you like acidic coffee, you can try the "Yirgacheffe Seasonal Drip Bag" sold by FrontStreet Coffee, which is medium-light roasted with fruity acidity flavor. If you prefer something not too acidic or too bitter, you can try the "Brazil Local Drip Bag," which is medium-dark roasted with nutty flavor.

The Correct Way to Brew Drip Bag Coffee

Drip bag coffee is not like brewing tea bags - you don't just open the package and soak it directly in hot water~ Nor should you soak it for extended periods or reuse it like tea bags.

After opening the package and taking out the drip bag coffee, tear along the dotted line and gently pull apart the paper "ears" on both sides to hang on the cup rim. For brewing drip bag coffee, it's best to use a straight-walled cup with a moderate mouth opening, ensuring that the water level doesn't rise above the bottom of the drip bag during brewing.

The brewing temperature for drip bag coffee depends on the roast level of the beans~ Light to medium roast is recommended to use 90-91°C, while medium-dark to dark roast is recommended to use 88-89°C. The brewing ratio is 1:15, meaning 10g of coffee powder with 150g of hot water.

Brewing method as follows: First, use 20g of hot water to wet the surface of the coffee powder and wait for 30 seconds; then pour water in circular motions from the inner circle to the outer circle. Don't pour all at once - you can divide it into three portions, letting the water and coffee powder blend for a while after each portion, totaling about 150g (if you like it stronger, around 130ml is fine, you can adjust to your preference).

After all the water has passed through the coffee powder layer, remove the drip filter bag and shake the liquid evenly before enjoying. You can also add your favorite dairy products or other flavorings~
