FAQ
-
A: You only need to use one chilling ball per brew! The other one can be stored in the freezer for future use. When you make another brew, simply take it out and use it again.
-
A: As mentioned earlier, based on scientific experiments, the ideal temperature for cooling the coffee extract instantly is around -15°C. To achieve this temperature, the chilling ball must be stored in the freezer for 3-4 hours before use. If you haven't done this, follow the instructions above and see if you can notice a difference in the flavor.
-
A: According to multiple experiments by World Champion Sasa, cooling the first 20-30% of the coffee liquid with the chilling ball is enough to significantly improve the flavor. In some cases, if too much coffee liquid is cooled, it can negatively affect the flavor or make the coffee temperature too low.
-
A: In simple terms, these are the "aromas" we smell. After coffee beans are roasted, they produce a large number of aromatic compounds. Some of these compounds have a low molecular weight and are volatile, meaning they tend to exist in a gaseous state rather than a liquid state. These compounds are easily extracted from the coffee grounds by hot water and can quickly evaporate into the air due to the heat, which is why we smell the "aroma."
-
A: Yes, there’s a difference in how chilling balls are used in different brewing methods:
Pour-over Chilling Balls: These are usually used during the early stage of extraction. Placing the chilling ball below the dripper helps reduce the initial temperature of the brew, preventing over-extraction and delivering a cleaner, brighter flavor. This method is ideal for making iced pour-over coffee or cold-style brews, where clarity and acidity are emphasized.
Espresso Chilling Balls: Typically used for the entire extraction process. The espresso is pulled directly onto the chilling ball placed in the server or glass. This instantly cools the espresso, locking in the aroma, reducing oxidation, and minimizing bitterness. It's a go-to for preparing iced Americanos or iced lattes, offering a smoother, more aromatic cup.
-
A: The design principle of the chilling ball is as follows: When we start pouring hot water for brewing, the hot water extracts volatile aromatic compounds from the coffee grounds. As the brewed coffee flows through the filter paper and into the dripper, it passes over the cold surface of the chilling ball (which is around -15°C), causing the coffee liquid to cool down instantly. This helps preserve more volatile aromatic compounds in the coffee. Therefore, if the chilling ball is only stored in the fridge (5°C), it's not cold enough! Before first use, make sure to freeze it for 3-4 hours to achieve the best effect. After brewing one pot of coffee, you can place the chilling ball back in the freezer, and it will be ready to use again after about 20 minutes.
-
A: Yes, because we want the coffee liquid to be cooled instantly, the chilling ball should be as close to the bottom of the filter paper as possible. This way, before the volatile compounds escape into the air, they will come in contact with the chilling ball and be cooled, helping to preserve them in the coffee liquid.
-
A: For the best results, it's recommended to use one chilling ball per brew. However, the actual number may vary depending on factors such as ambient temperature and brewing time. After use, be sure to store the chilling ball back in the freezer.
-
A: Yes, it will! As we mentioned earlier, the chilling ball's principle is to preserve the volatile aromatic compounds in the coffee. Therefore, coffees with more pronounced aromas, like floral or fruity notes, tend to show more noticeable results when passed over the chilling ball compared to coffees with nutty or woody flavors. Based on our tests, using beans with floral or fruity aromas tends to give a more noticeable improvement in flavor.
