DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0025] The present application is applicable to the scenario where a user makes coffee by using a fully-automatic coffee machine. The embodiments of the present application provide a coffee extraction method, which controls the flow rate in stages during the extraction process to achieve the effect of making coffee that precisely meets the user's flavor preference.
[0026] According to the embodiments of the present application, a coffee extraction method embodiment is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described herein can be executed in an order different from that shown herein.
[0027] In the present embodiment, a coffee extraction method is provided, which can be used in the coffee machine described above, Figure 1 is a flowchart of the coffee extraction method according to the embodiments of the present application, as Figure 1 shown, the flow includes the following steps: Step S101, obtaining the user's selected flavor preference, the flavor preference including: flavor type and flavor level.
[0028] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, in order to make coffee that meets the user's individualized flavor preference, various flavor preferences are directly displayed on the operation interface of the coffee machine, for example, the flavor preference directly reflecting the user's "sour, sweet, bitter" taste, and "sour, sweet, bitter" are the three core tastes that constitute the flavor skeleton of coffee, the proportion, intensity and coordination of the three directly determine the taste keynote (such as refreshing, mellow, balanced or stimulating) of a cup of coffee. The user can select the expected flavor preference through the operation interface, and the coffee machine obtains the user's selected flavor preference and controls the coffee making process based on the same.
[0029] Step S102, determining the constraint condition of the extraction process according to the flavor type, and determining the extraction parameters corresponding to different extraction stages in the extraction process according to the constraint condition and the flavor level, the extraction parameters including the extraction flow rate.
[0030] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, the coffee has different flavor bias during the extraction process with the extraction time, more sour in the early extraction, more sweet in the middle extraction, and mainly bitter in the late extraction. Therefore, the extraction process is divided into the early extraction, the middle extraction and the late extraction, and the extraction flow rate corresponding to different extraction stages is adjusted. Among them, the early extraction, the middle extraction and the late extraction correspond to different time periods in the extraction process, that is, after the extraction starts, the early extraction is entered first, and the extraction is carried out according to the extraction flow rate corresponding to the early extraction, and after the extraction time corresponding to the early extraction is reached, the middle extraction is entered, and then the extraction is carried out according to the extraction flow rate corresponding to the middle extraction, and after the extraction time corresponding to the middle extraction is reached, the late extraction is entered, and then the extraction is carried out according to the extraction flow rate corresponding to the late extraction, which is equivalent to overall control of the extraction process, so as to extract coffee with different liquid amounts and different flavor biases in different extraction stages, for example, more sour, more sweet or more bitter, and finally achieve the effect of adjusting the overall flavor of the coffee. Further, through experimental testing, real person testing and the like, the overall flavor bias of the coffee made under various extraction processes is determined, that is, the corresponding relationship between the overall flavor bias and the extraction flow rate corresponding to the extraction stage is determined.
[0031] In some optional embodiments, during the use of the coffee machine, the user-selected flavor preference is taken as the target flavor bias of the coffee made by the coffee machine, and the corresponding extraction flow rate of different stages in the extraction process is determined according to the corresponding relationship between the overall flavor bias and the extraction flow rate corresponding to the extraction stage.
[0032] Step S103, when the coffee making enters the extraction process, the extraction is carried out according to the corresponding extraction flow rate in different extraction stages, so as to obtain coffee meeting the flavor preference.
[0033] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, after the user fills the powder, presses the powder, installs the handle, selects the flavor preference and presses the extraction key, the coffee machine determines the corresponding extraction flow rate of different extraction stages in the extraction process according to the user-selected flavor preference, and then starts to make coffee. The coffee making process includes a pre-soaking process and an extraction process, wherein the pre-soaking process is a pre-treatment process of wetting the coffee powder with a small amount of hot water (or water mist) at low pressure before the extraction formally starts; after the pre-soaking is completed, the extraction process uses hot water with a set extraction pressure and temperature to continuously penetrate the coffee powder cake, which is the main process of extracting flavoring substances.
[0034] In some optional embodiments, the coffee extraction method according to the embodiments of the present application can be used to control the extraction flow rate in different extraction stages according to the user's selected flavor preference, so as to obtain coffee with the flavor preference. The embodiments of the present application can control the extraction flow rate in different extraction stages according to the user's selected flavor preference, so as to optimize the extraction ratio of soluble substances in different extraction stages and achieve precise control of the flavor, thereby improving the flavor performance of the coffee and enhancing the user experience and satisfaction.
[0035] The coffee extraction method according to the embodiments of the present application can be used to control the extraction flow rate in different extraction stages according to the user's selected flavor preference, so as to obtain coffee with the flavor preference. The embodiments of the present application can control the extraction flow rate in different extraction stages according to the user's selected flavor preference, so as to optimize the extraction ratio of soluble substances in different extraction stages and achieve precise control of the flavor, thereby improving the flavor performance of the coffee and enhancing the user experience and satisfaction.
[0036] In the embodiments of the present application, a coffee extraction method is provided, which can be used in the coffee machine described above. Figure 2 The flow chart of the coffee extraction method according to the embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 1, which includes the following steps: Figure 2 The flow chart of the coffee extraction method according to the embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. 1, which includes the following steps: In step S201, the user's selected flavor preference is obtained, which includes the flavor type and the flavor level.
[0037] Specifically, step S201 includes the following steps: In step S2011, the user's selected flavor type is obtained, which is any one of the sweet and sour flavor, the high sweet flavor, the sweet and bitter flavor, and the bitter flavor.
[0038] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, the operation interface of the coffee machine provides the user with the options of the sweet and sour flavor, the high sweet flavor, the sweet and bitter flavor, and the bitter flavor, and each flavor type can be set with a corresponding flavor level. Before making coffee, the user selects the flavor type according to personal preference, and the coffee machine obtains the user's selected flavor type.
[0039] In some optional embodiments, the extraction flow rate and extraction time of the extraction stage corresponding to the four flavor types are limited according to the extraction process, that is, the front stage is more sour, the middle stage is more sweet, and the tail stage is mainly bitter. Among them, the extraction flow rate corresponding to the extraction front stage, the extraction middle stage and the extraction rear stage in the extraction process corresponding to the sour and sweet flavor decreases in turn, and the corresponding extraction time increases in turn; the extraction flow rate corresponding to the extraction middle stage, the extraction front stage and the extraction rear stage in the extraction process corresponding to the high sweet flavor decreases in turn, and the corresponding extraction time increases in turn; the extraction flow rate corresponding to the extraction middle stage, the extraction rear stage and the extraction front stage in the extraction process corresponding to the sweet and bitter flavor decreases in turn, and the corresponding extraction time increases in turn; the extraction flow rate corresponding to the extraction rear stage, the extraction middle stage and the extraction front stage in the extraction process corresponding to the bitter flavor decreases in turn, and the corresponding extraction time increases in turn.
[0040] Step S2012, determine the flavor grade corresponding to the flavor type.
[0041] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, in order to further accurately meet the individual needs of the user, the user can set the flavor grade of the selected flavor type on the operation interface after selecting the flavor type, for example, selecting in the pre-set 1-10 levels. The coffee machine detects whether the user sets the flavor grade after obtaining the user's selected flavor type, and if the user sets the flavor grade, the coffee machine obtains the user's selected flavor grade, and if the user does not set the flavor grade, the coffee machine confirms according to the default level, for example, taking 5 levels as the default flavor grade. Under different flavor grades of the same flavor type, the size relationship between the extraction flow rates or extraction times corresponding to the different extraction stages remains unchanged, but the size of the extraction flow rate or extraction time can be further adjusted under the constraint of the size relationship to realize the grade adjustment of the flavor type.
[0042] Step S202, determine the constraint condition of the extraction process according to the flavor type, and determine the extraction parameters corresponding to different extraction stages in the extraction process according to the constraint condition and the flavor grade, the extraction parameters including the extraction flow rate.
[0043] Specifically, the above step S202 includes: Step S2021, obtain the pre-set coffee liquid amount, the total time corresponding to the extraction process and the average flow rate.
[0044] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, different coffee types correspond to different amounts of coffee liquid, and the extraction process corresponds to different total times and average flow rates. Taking a fully automatic espresso machine as an example, the amount of coffee liquid m for extraction of an espresso is usually 20-60 ml, the total time t (coffee liquid discharge time) of the extraction process is 5-50 s, and the average flow rate v is 0.5-4 ml / s. Different coffee machines have different default settings for the above parameters, and users can also adjust the above parameters according to their needs. In addition, the total time of extraction can also be adjusted according to the flavor preference, wherein the total time of the sweet and sour flavor < the total time of the high sweet flavor < the total time of the sweet bitter flavor < the total time of the bitter flavor, but the amount of coffee liquid m / total time t=average flow rate v is always maintained.
[0045] Step S2022, determining the constraint condition of the extraction process according to the flavor type, and determining the extraction flow rate and extraction time corresponding to different extraction stages according to the amount of coffee liquid, total time, average flow rate and constraint condition.
[0046] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, after determining the amount of coffee liquid m, total time t and average flow rate v, the extraction process is refined according to the user's selected flavor preference, the extraction flow rate and extraction time corresponding to different extraction stages are determined, and the flow rate is adjusted in different time periods of the extraction process, so that the extraction proportion of soluble substances in different stages of coffee liquid is optimized, and accurate control of the flavors of acid, sweet, bitter, etc. can be achieved, thereby improving the flavor performance of coffee and enhancing the user experience.
[0047] In some optional embodiments, the above step S2022 comprises: Step a1, determining the constraint condition of the extraction process according to the flavor type, the constraint condition being determined in advance according to the amount of coffee liquid, total time, average flow rate and each extraction stage, including: flow rate constraint condition, time constraint condition and liquid amount constraint condition; Step a2, determining the first value range of the extraction flow rate, the second value range of the extraction time and the third value range of the extraction liquid amount corresponding to each extraction stage according to the amount of coffee liquid, total time, average flow rate and constraint condition.
[0048] Step a3, determining the extraction liquid amount corresponding to each extraction stage in the third value range according to the flavor level.
[0049] Step a4, determining the extraction flow rate in the first value range based on the extraction liquid amount, and determining the extraction time in the second value range.
[0050] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, when the user selects the sour-sweet flavor, a higher flow rate is adopted in the pre-extraction section and the middle extraction section, and a lower flow rate is adopted in the post-extraction section; when the user selects the high-sweet flavor, a lower flow rate is adopted in the pre-extraction section and the post-extraction section, and a higher flow rate is adopted in the middle extraction section; when the user selects the sweet-bitter flavor, a lower flow rate is adopted in the pre-extraction section, and a higher flow rate is adopted in the middle extraction section and the post-extraction section; and when the user selects the bitter flavor, a lower flow rate is adopted in the pre-extraction section and the middle extraction section, and a higher flow rate is adopted in the post-extraction section. In order to accurately control the extraction stage, different constraint conditions are set under different flavor types, including flow rate constraint condition, time constraint condition and liquid volume constraint condition, and then the constraint condition to be referred to is determined according to the flavor type selected by the user. Under different constraint conditions, the value range of the extraction flow rate, the extraction time and the extraction liquid volume corresponding to each extraction stage can be determined according to the coffee liquid volume, the total time and the average flow rate, and then the value range of the extraction liquid volume is divided according to the level, and the specific extraction liquid volume of each extraction stage is determined in the value range according to the flavor level set by the user. The extraction liquid volume is the product of the extraction flow rate and the extraction time, and when the extraction liquid volume is determined, the extraction flow rate and the extraction time of each extraction stage are further determined in the value range of the extraction flow rate and the extraction time.
[0051] In some optional embodiments, the extraction flow rates corresponding to the pre-extraction section, the middle extraction section and the post-extraction section are v1, v2 and v3 respectively, the extraction times are t1, t2 and t3 respectively, and the extraction liquid volumes are m1, m2 and m3 respectively, m1=v1×t1, m2=v2×t2, m3=v3×t3. Among them, (v1+v2+v3) / 3=v, t1+t2+t3=t, m1+m2+m3=m, t1, t2, t3 are all greater than t / 5 and less than 2t / 3, v1, v2, v3 are all greater than v / 5 and less than 3×v.
[0052] In some optional embodiments, if the user selects a sour and sweet flavor, a higher flow rate is used in the pre-extraction section and the middle extraction section to extract more sour and sweet flavor substances, and a lower flow rate is used in the post-extraction section to reduce bitterness. Correspondingly, the flow rate constraint conditions corresponding to the entire extraction process are v1>v2>v3, 1 ml / s<v1<10 ml / s, 0.1 ml / s<v3<3 ml / s, the time constraint conditions are t1<t2<t3, 1 s<t1<10 s, 5 s<t3<20 s, and the liquid amount constraint condition during the extraction process is m1>m2>m3, m1+m2≥3m / 4. The extraction parameters determined based on the above constraint conditions can ensure that more coffee is extracted in the pre-extraction section with less time, and the sour and sweet flavors of the coffee are improved. However, based on the constraint conditions, only the value range of each extraction parameter can be determined, so the value range of the extraction liquid amount is divided into levels, and then the specific value of the extraction liquid amount is determined in the value range according to the sour and sweet flavor level selected by the user, such as 1-10 levels. The higher the level, the larger m1 and m2 are, and the larger v1 and v2 are and the smaller t1 and t2 are. In actual operation, after the extraction liquid amount is determined, one parameter is determined based on the value range of the extraction flow rate or the extraction time, and the other parameter is determined.
[0053] In some optional embodiments, if the user selects a high sweet flavor, a lower flow rate is used in the pre-extraction section and the post-extraction section, and a higher flow rate is used in the middle extraction section to increase the extraction of sweet substances. The flow rate constraint conditions corresponding to the entire extraction process are v2>v1>v3, 1 ml / s<v2<10 ml / s, 0.1 ml / s<v3<3 ml / s, the time constraint conditions are t2<t1<t3, 1 s<t2<10 s, 5 s<t3<20 s, and the liquid amount constraint condition during the extraction process is m2>m1>m3, m2≥m / 2. The extraction parameters determined based on the above constraint conditions can ensure that more coffee is extracted in the middle section with less time, and the sweetness of the coffee is improved. However, based on the constraint conditions, only the value range of each extraction parameter can be determined, so the value range of the extraction liquid amount is divided into levels, and then the specific value of the extraction liquid amount is determined in the value range according to the sweet and bitter flavor level selected by the user, such as 1-10 levels. The higher the level, the larger m2 is, and the larger v2 is and the smaller t2 is.
[0054] In some optional embodiments, if the user selects a sweet and bitter flavor, a lower flow rate is used in the pre-extraction section to reduce sour substances, and a higher flow rate is used in the middle and post-extraction sections to improve the sweet and bitter flavor. Correspondingly, the flow rate constraint conditions of the entire extraction process are v2>v3>v1, 1 ml / s<v2<10 ml / s, 0.1 ml / s<v1<3 ml / s, the time constraint conditions are t2<t3<t1, 1 s<t2<10 s, 5 s<t1<20 s, and the liquid amount constraint conditions during the extraction process are m2>m3>m1, m2+m3>3m / 4. Based on the extraction parameters determined based on the above constraint conditions, more coffee can be extracted in the middle extraction section with less time, the extraction amount of the back end is increased and the extraction amount of the front end is reduced, and the sweet and bitter flavor of the coffee is improved. However, based on the constraint conditions, only the value range of each extraction parameter can be determined, so the value range of the extraction liquid amount is divided into levels, and then the specific value of the extraction liquid amount is determined in the value range according to the sweet and bitter flavor level selected by the user, such as 1-10 levels. The higher the level, the larger m2 and m3 are, and the larger v2 and v3 are and the smaller t2 and t3 are.
[0055] In some optional embodiments, if the user selects a bitter flavor, a lower flow rate is used in the pre-extraction section and the middle extraction section, and a higher flow rate is used in the post-extraction section to highlight the bitter taste of the coffee. The flow rate constraint conditions of the entire extraction process are v3>v2>v1, 1 ml / s<v3<10 ml / s, 0.1 ml / s<v1<3 ml / s, the time constraint conditions are t3<t2<t1, 1 s<t3<10 s, 5 s<t1<20 s, and the liquid amount constraint conditions during the extraction process are m3>m2>m1, m3>m / 2. Based on the extraction parameters determined based on the above constraint conditions, more coffee can be extracted in the middle extraction section with less time, the extraction amount of the back end is increased and the extraction amount of the front end is reduced, and the sweet and bitter flavor of the coffee is improved. However, based on the constraint conditions, only the value range of each extraction parameter can be determined, so the value range of the extraction liquid amount is divided into levels, and then the specific value of the extraction liquid amount is determined in the value range according to the sweet and bitter flavor level selected by the user, such as 1-10 levels. The higher the level, the larger m3 is, and the larger v3 is and the smaller t3 is.
[0056] Step S203, when the coffee making enters the extraction process, extraction is performed at different extraction stages according to the corresponding extraction flow rate to obtain coffee that meets the flavor preference. For details, please refer to Figure 1 Step S103 of the embodiment shown in the figure will not be described here again.
[0057] The coffee extraction method provided by this invention determines the extraction flow rate corresponding to each extraction stage based on the user's selected flavor preference. During coffee making, extraction is performed at different stages according to the corresponding extraction flow rate to obtain coffee that meets the flavor preference. This invention optimizes the extraction ratio of soluble substances in the coffee liquid at different extraction stages by controlling the flow rate in stages based on the user's flavor preference, achieving precise control of flavor and improving the technical effect of enhancing coffee flavor expression, user experience, and satisfaction.
[0058] This embodiment provides a coffee extraction method that can be used in the aforementioned coffee machine. Figure 3 This is a flowchart of a coffee extraction method according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the process includes the following steps: Step S301: Obtain the flavor preference selected by the user. Flavor preference includes flavor type and flavor level. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 Step S201 of the illustrated embodiment will not be described again here.
[0059] Step S302: Determine the constraints of the extraction process based on the flavor type, and determine the extraction parameters corresponding to different extraction stages based on the constraints and flavor level. The extraction parameters include the extraction flow rate. For details, please refer to [link to details]. Figure 2 Step S202 of the illustrated embodiment will not be described again here.
[0060] Step S303: After the coffee making process enters the extraction process, extraction is carried out at different extraction stages according to the corresponding extraction flow rate to obtain coffee that meets the flavor preference.
[0061] Specifically, step S303 includes: Step S3031: After the extraction process begins, the pre-extraction stage is taken as the current extraction stage, and the flow rate is adjusted according to the extraction flow rate corresponding to the current extraction stage.
[0062] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, the coffee extraction process is divided into different extraction stages. Depending on the flavor preference selected by the user, the extraction time and extraction flow rate are different for different extraction stages in the same extraction process. Furthermore, the same extraction stage corresponding to different extraction processes will also vary due to different flavor preferences, thereby meeting the personalized needs of different users.
[0063] In some optional implementations, the coffee machine begins brewing coffee after determining the extraction volume, flow rate, and extraction time for each extraction stage based on the user-selected flavor type and level. Once the extraction process begins, the initial extraction stage is designated as the current extraction stage, and the extraction flow rate and extraction time for this stage are obtained. During the extraction process, the extraction flow rate is adjusted to achieve the flow rate determined in the initial extraction stage.
[0064] Step S3032: Obtain the extraction duration and determine whether the duration has reached the extraction time corresponding to the current extraction stage.
[0065] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, after the extraction pre-stage begins, the extraction duration is accumulated, and it is determined whether the extraction duration has reached the extraction time corresponding to the extraction pre-stage. If not, extraction continues at the current extraction flow rate.
[0066] In step S3033, if the target is reached, the next extraction stage is taken as the current extraction stage, and the process returns to the step of adjusting the flow rate according to the extraction flow rate corresponding to the current extraction stage, until the extraction process ends.
[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, when the extraction duration reaches the extraction time corresponding to the initial extraction stage, the corresponding amount of extractant from the initial extraction stage can be extracted. The middle extraction stage is then designated as the current extraction stage, and the extraction flow rate is adjusted to achieve the extraction flow rate determined for the middle extraction stage. Simultaneously, the extraction duration is re-accumulated to determine if it has reached the extraction time corresponding to the middle extraction stage, or if accumulation continues on the previous extraction duration, but the time difference between the current extraction duration and the extraction duration at the end of the initial extraction stage is calculated, and it is determined whether the time difference reaches the extraction time corresponding to the middle extraction stage. If not, extraction continues at the current extraction flow rate.
[0068] In some optional implementations, if the extraction time is reached, the extraction volume corresponding to the middle stage can be extracted. The later stage of extraction is then taken as the current extraction stage, and the extraction flow rate is adjusted to achieve the extraction flow rate determined for the later stage. The extraction duration is accumulated until it reaches the extraction time corresponding to the later stage, at which point the extraction process ends. At this point, the total extraction duration for each extraction stage is a predetermined total time, the total extraction volume for each extraction stage is a predetermined coffee volume, and the average extraction flow rate for each extraction stage is a predetermined average flow rate.
[0069] In some alternative embodiments, the coffee machine can make coffee according to the user's flavor preference by controlling the extraction flow rate and the extraction time, and can also make coffee according to the user's flavor preference by controlling the extraction liquid volume and the extraction flow rate, i.e., extracting according to the corresponding extraction flow rate in different extraction stages, controlling the coffee liquid flow, and determining whether the extraction liquid volume of the current extraction stage is reached. For example, the user wants to extract 30 ml of coffee with a sour and sweet flavor, and there are two control methods: (1) generate control instructions of extraction time and extraction flow rate, the first stage extraction is 5 s, the flow rate is 3 ml / s; the second stage extraction is 5 s, the flow rate is 2 ml / s; the third stage extraction is 10 s, the flow rate is 0.5 ml / s, and a total of 30 ml of coffee is extracted. (2) Generate control instructions of liquid flow and extraction flow rate, the first stage extraction is 15 ml, the flow rate is 3 ml / s; the second stage extraction is 10 ml, the flow rate is 2 ml / s; the third stage extraction is 5 ml, the flow rate is 0.5 ml / s, and a total of 30 ml of coffee is extracted, and the actual extraction time is 5 s for the first stage extraction, 5 s for the second stage extraction, and 10 s for the third stage extraction.
[0070] In some alternative embodiments, the embodiment of the present application conducts sensory tests on 57 people who often drink coffee, selects deeply roasted coffee beans, and makes five different flavors of espresso based on the above coffee extraction process. Among them, each cup of extracted concentrate is 30 ml, and 120 ml of hot water is added for dilution (because the flavor intensity of the concentrate is too high to affect the sensory test), and then divided into five equal parts, each part is 30 ml. 57 test personnel, a total of 12 times of coffee liquid extraction for each extraction logic. The extraction flow rate and extraction time of the five different flavors of espresso are as follows: The first kind: 30 ml of concentrate, v1=v2=v3=1 ml / s, t1=t2=t3=10 s; The second kind: 30 ml of concentrate, v1=1.5 ml / s, t1=8 s, v2=1.5 ml / s, t2=8 s, v3=0.5 ml / s, t3=12 s; The third kind: 30 ml of concentrate, v1=0.5 ml / s, t1=14 s, v2=2 ml / s, t2=8 s, v3=0.5 ml / s, t3=14 s; The fourth kind: 30 ml of concentrate, v1=0.5 ml / s, t1=14 s, v2=1.5 ml / s, t2=8 s, v3=1 ml / s, t3=11 s; The fifth kind: 30 ml of concentrate, v1=0.5 ml / s, t1=12 s, v2=0.8 ml / s, t2=10 s, v3=2 ml / s, t3=8 s.
[0071] Each person can choose at most two items from the three options of sour, bitter, and sweet. The experimental results are shown in the following table:
[0072] It can be seen that, due to the deep-roasted coffee, the coffee is bitter and the sweetness is low at the same flow rate during the whole extraction process; when the flow rate of the middle stage is increased, the sour taste and the sweetness are obviously improved; when the flow rate of the middle stage is increased and the flow rates of the front stage and the rear stage are reduced, the sweetness is more obviously improved; when the flow rate of the front stage is reduced and the flow rate of the middle stage is increased, the sweetness is retained while the bitterness is further increased; and when the flow rates of the front stage and the middle stage are reduced and the flow rate of the rear stage is increased, the bitterness is obviously increased. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can make coffee with different flavors by adjusting the flow rate in stages during the extraction process, improve the flavor performance of the coffee, and meet the individualized needs of users.
[0073] The coffee extraction method provided by the present application determines the extraction flow rate corresponding to each extraction stage in the extraction process according to the flavor preference selected by the user, extracts at the corresponding extraction flow rate in different extraction stages during the coffee making process, and obtains coffee that meets the flavor preference. The present application controls the flow rate of the extraction process in stages based on the flavor preference of the user, optimizes the extraction ratio of soluble substances of the coffee liquid in different extraction stages, realizes accurate control of the flavor, and achieves the technical effects of improving the flavor performance of the coffee and enhancing the user experience and satisfaction.
