Channi Coffee

Easy and cheap, channi coffee is great for people who are new to brewing coffee at home and don't have any equipment. All you need is a tea strainer! This method is particularly well-suited for people who are looking to switch from instant coffee but don't want to invest in brewing gear just yet. 

What you’ll need: 

• 14g (approximately 7 teaspoons) coffee in coarse, channi grind 
• Channi / Strainer
• Cup
• 140ml water (½ cup + 1 tablespoon) at 94°C (approximately 1:50 minutes off the boil)
• Kettle
• Scales, if possible, otherwise follow eye measurements
• Muslin cloth, if possible

Brewing recipe: 

• Add 14g coffee to your cup.
• Add 130ml hot water. 
• Leave for 4 minutes.
• At 4 minutes, stir 10 times. 
• Pour brew through channi into another cup. 
• Add more of the remaining hot water, or milk to your preference.

Pro tips:  

• Use a 4 minute brew time for light to medium roasts. 
• Use a 3:30 minute brew time for medium dark to dark roasts or natural processed coffees. 
• Use less than 3:30 minutes for very dark roasts. 
• If you feel like your coffee has a lot of grit or coffee powder in it, then add a muslin cloth over the channi. Alternatively, grind your coffee coarser.
