Brew in Corner is a long-established boutique café in Hangzhou, which has been in operation for seven or eight years, which is a testament to the success of Brew in Corner for an independent café with an average lifespan of only about a year and a half.
The owner of Brew in Corner is a well-known cupper in the social circle, who travels the world to mingle with different baristas, visit various coffee shops, and bring good beans back to the store. For this reason, Brew in Corner does not roast its own beans, and all the beans in the store come from other coffee roasters, and it is not uncommon for these coffee roasters to come to the store to communicate. Brew in Corner has the largest number of orders for Coffee Collective, one of the Danish coffee chains, and many cafes in Hangzhou pick up their goods here. The owner of Brew in Corner has his own unique opinion about ice drop coffee, he believes that the extraction method of ice drop will cause uneven extraction of coffee powder, which is a waste for good beans, so he chose to make cold brew coffee. Cold brew coffee is different from ice drops in that it is made by soaking the ground powder completely in ice water and extracting it at a low temperature for a long time. Cold brew coffee has a smoother taste, a pronounced flavor layer, and a pronounced sweetness.
The special bar in the store is dedicated to pour-over coffee, which shows the owner's dedication and dedication to specialty coffee. The pour-over bar is located at the back of the store, making it a quiet environment. There are two grinders on the bar that attract attention, one is the Ditting electric grinder, and the other is the HG-ONE hand grinder, the top artifact in the coffee industry. Baristas will choose different grinders for grinding beans according to different beans. The height of the bar is just right for guests to see the whole process of pouring, and guests can also exchange coffee ideas with the barista at any time.
Brew in Corner, which has many years of experience in café management, understands the taste preferences of Hangzhou coffee lovers, such as the fact that the store does not sell Mandheling, because the coffee is not very well received in the local area. To ensure its operation, Brew in Corner also serves tea, juices, drinks, desserts and more. The interior of the store is retro and warm, and the furnishings and decorations are not unconventional.
