Photosynthesis belongs to a community café, the shop is located on the bustling Kaiyuan Road, only a corner away from the gradual coffee, the baristas of the two stores are friends, often come and go, exchange ideas.
The source of coffee beans for photosynthesis is slightly different from gradually, and the commonly used coffee bean brands are COFFEE COLLECTIVE, one of Denmark's largest coffee chains, and the domestic brand Jikoshi. There is a relatively wide variety of beans, and coffee beans from well-known producing regions can be found here. In terms of roasting, a considerable part of the coffee beans in the store choose light roasted coffee beans with a short shelf life, and the hand-poured items made by light roasted beans often have bright fruit acids, and the taste is very pure. The two brands of photosynthetic beans have their own advantages, COFFEE COLLECTIVE has a richer and more complete flavor expression, and the optometry shows a more obvious price advantage.
The photosynthetic menu is handwritten on the blackboard and changes frequently, so if you want to drink a pour-over, you can consult the barista directly. When brewing coffee, there are certain standards for powder amount, water volume, and water temperature, and there are strict restrictions on the pre-infusion time and injection time of extraction, which is why most people feel that it is better to drink hand-brewed in a café than to brew it at home. In addition, the service attitude in the store is much more patient than that of a fast-food café, and the details are carefully considered.
The façade of photosynthesis is small and low-key, and the bar counter is located at the entrance, leaving only an aisle that can be passed by one person, which may be difficult to achieve if you want to make a bar seat and enjoy the hand punch. Through the bar, there are two separate rooms as dining areas, one with a darker light and warm yellow lighting, and the other decorated with a variety of greenery, giving it a natural atmosphere that coincides with the name of the restaurant.
