How to make traditional small filter coffee?
For making small filter coffee, we should prepare about 25g of powdered coffee and 80 -100ml of water. Follow these steps to make coffee:
Step 1: Rinse the filter and coffee cup with hot water to create the best contact for the coffee powder before brewing. This is extremely important to determine the deliciousness of a cup of coffee.

This step requires the barista to have experience so that the water can both absorb the coffee powder and not drift too quickly leading to loss of taste.
Step 3: Pour about 20ml of boiled water into the filter, brew the coffee for 1-2 minutes. Need to pour just enough water so that the coffee blooms evenly and does not overflow.
Step 4: After the coffee has bloomed and absorbed all the water, put about 60-80ml into the filter. Cover the filter and wait for about 3-5 minutes to have the finished coffee.
Note when making filter coffee:
The secret to having a good cup of iced milk coffee is to finish brewing the coffee within 5-7 minutes from the time of pouring the first water. If the water flows too fast, the quick brewing time will be sour . . If the water flows too slowly, the coffee will be bitter (over).
Normally coffee drops will fall at a rate of about 1 drop/second. However, for pure coffee, or slightly coarse ground coffee, this speed is a bit faster.
To avoid residue in the coffee cup when drinking, you can place the filter cap under the filter while brewing coffee. After brewing is complete, put the coffee and residue into the filter.
You can add milk, sugar, and ice to taste.
Choose aluminum filter to make the best cup of coffee.
