For this reason, the coffee filter is always too big for the machine
Actually, it sounds quite simple: get coffee filter from the package, cover on, filter auffriemeln and put in, then pure coffee powder, water in the machine, flap (and thus the too-large filter zerknicken) and press button - right?
If you are one of the people who make coffee exactly as described above, you are taking an important intermediate step. Because: The two hatched edges - the so-called embossing seam - of the coffee filter should we bend over!
The madman: Even if the kinking trick is printed on almost every filter bag pack as a guide, there are many people who do not know that and do not. As a result, the matching filter is always a bit too big for your coffee machine and looks out the top (until you fold down the lid).
That's why we should fold over the embossing seam of the coffee filters
Why do the edges fold over, if it works that way? The purpose of the whole is to stabilize the filter: it should be stronger by the kinking, a burst is to be prevented.
If you have not turned the seams yet, try it next time out: you'll wonder how well the filter fits ...
By the way: If you want to make a real art out of coffee-making and make sure that your coffee tastes the best, you should come and read how the perfect coffee is cooked.
