Vietnamese

An inverted, long-immersion brew that recreates the bold, chocolaty character of a traditional Vietnamese phin in a fraction of the time. Coarse grounds and a slow press produce a heavy cup suited to condensed milk and ice.

Notes

Coarse grind matches the phin's slow drip behaviour but lets immersion do the work. Long immersion (~4 minutes) pulls heavy body before a quick press. Serve neat or pour over ice with sweetened condensed milk to finish a cà phê sữa đá.
