Introduction
Many people derive as much pleasure from brewing Cocoa as from drinking it., Correct Cocoa brewing depends on a balance of several factors, and each Cocoa will react differently and uniquely to exactly the same balance of factors. When brewing, consider the following factors:
- The degree of grind of the ground Cocoa.
- The ratio of Cocoa to water.
- The condition of the water.
- The water temperature.
- The contact time between the Cocoa and the water.
The Art of Brewing Cocoa
Al Fresco
This is the simplest way of brewing Cocoa when no Cocoa equipment is available.
Simply measure the correct amount of cold water into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Add a teaspoon of Cocoa for each cup of water. Immediately remove the saucepan from heat, stirring well. Set aside for around 4 minutes. Strain the Cocoa into each cup.
Manual Percolator
Cocoa percolators were invented earlier this century and makes excellent Cocoa.
Pour fresh water into the pot.
Fill the brew basket with coarse-grind Cocoa. Place the brew basket into the Cocoa pot. Close the lid and bring to the boil.
The water passes up through the hollow tube and out of the top, overflowing the brew basket. The cycle takes about 7 minutes and Cocoa is ready to be enjoyed.
Espresso Pots
The espresso pots have been popular for more than 60 years. To make Cocoa in an espresso pot, fill the lower chamber with fresh water up to the bottom of the safety valve.
Fill the filter funnel basket with finely ground Cocoa. Compress the Cocoa with a teaspoon, making sure that there is no loose Cocoa sits around the rim of the basket.
Place the espresso pot on low to medium heat. After the water boils, its steam will start to push the remainder of the water up the funnel. Reduce heat.
When most of the water has left the lower chamber the bubbling sound will become more intermittent. Remove pot from the heat. Wait for the bubbling to ease before serving.
Plunger – French Press
Commonly used in France and very easy to use.
Place dry Cocoa in the glass cylinder.
Pour boiling water over the Cocoa. Prop the sieve device, with the lid above it, just inside the top of the cylinder for about 4 minutes. When the brewing time is up, hold the lid down with one hand and slowly push down the plunger.
Serve the Cocoa.
