I just bought a Vietnamese coffee brew kit (including whole robusto coffee beans and the phin), and I can't wait to try this. I appreciate the specific measurements you gave as a starting point for a proper concentration/strength. I also very much appreciate how you showed the detail of the blooming process. This is a fantastic share. Thanks for offering us your experience.
My mom received a phin as a souvenir from her friend for long time ago and we had no idea what to do with it 😂 I’ll try this recipe, thx for sharing ❤️
Perfect English. Sober and sound explanation. Please more about adding coconut milk and milk. Excellent comment on what is perfection. Different grind, Type and quantity of coffee, tightening or not or just gravity. Temperature of water. So much to explore
awesome. what makes a great cup of coffee is its bean quality, so you don't need fancy equipment to make a good cup of coffee, just a simple Phim filter could do a good job
@@seeyouinvietnam Thanks 😊 I did only one time pouring a cup of hot water and the coffee taste was very lite. Before I found this video, I did a wrong way of using it. Thanks you
Thank you! I got back from Vietnam and brought my coffee I bought there. All of the various coffees were so delicious and unique! Can you please do tutorials on egg coffee and salt coffee? I’d love to make them!
Yeah don't blame you for leaving Canada. It's for the frigid blooded! Coffee is so much better in ASEAN countries and Timmies is for the misguided masses as far as I'm concerned.
I pick my own coffee cherries in northern Thailand, squeeze the seeds out. After drying in the sun I roast them myself in a drum roaster on a picnic gas stove. Grind and all within 14 days from coffee cherry to cup makes a huge difference! Now I send my fresh coffee back to Canada and UK and they cannot believe the great taste either. Coffee from stores, especially if pre-ground is old, stale and dead! I like your style. See you in Viet Nam!
Love it love it. We love to do coffee experiences as well. Been to numerous coffee farms, picked the cherries, and through all the process, tried some of the most expensive coffee varieties and also cheap ones. The reality is, it's mainly not the barista who makes the coffee taste good, it's the farmer who put their love, effort into taking care of the cherries, like taking care of their children. It's sad how poorly they are paid nowadays despite how much Starbucks charges for a cup of coffee. Anyway, contribute little effort to erase the inequality. Let us know when you back to VN, we'll make you some good coffee.
Im vietnamese myself and when i was younger i liked starbucks better because I thought viet coffee was bitter and nasty when my parents drank it, now look at me. Drinking vietnamese coffee and loving the strong STRONG flavor it brings. Its so good, sorry starbucks 🤣
I’ve tried Starbucks coffee a couple of times in Saigon. It’s just too watery, finding some good coffee beans can get rid of the nasty flavors from some Vietnamese coffee
Starbucks is nowhere near the flavor of Vietnamese espresso. I drink Vietnamese espresso quite a lot in my early days, especially in coffe. However, I couldn't stay awake in the 1pm class 🤣😂. Even Mickey D's coffee is better than Starbucks.
Love Vietnamese coffee, found 2 PHIN'S at a thrift-store for less than 3 euro total. best bargain I got in a while. only downside is that the included glass was a bit too small for my taste. since the PHINS I got is quite large, and looks to be more for 3-4 cups than 1-2 cups
I use a South Indian coffee filter which works exactly like this. Thanks for the tip about blooming the coffee, I'll surely try that next time. Our coffee has chicory in it though, will that interfere with that? A tip from my side for those looking to cut back on their sugar- honey or jaggery goes great with this filter coffee.
Sir saw this video just now and I find that a small plate to press the coffee powder inside the phin is missing . is this a different model of phin I am really fond of Vietnam coffee love from India thanks god bless you
Liked and subscribed as you are very precise in your video and I like phin to take camping as it's very portable for travel. Also not expensive. And everything is up to you to make the best coffee. Fresh Arabica beans or Robusta ...it's up to you! Was in Da Nang last year before lockdown began and loved it. Was in Hanoi 4 years ago..loved it. Will be back soon as things open up.
How I use screw down , taught to me by my Veitnamese neighbors, --> grind beans medium course , add in to Phin, screw down until a little resistance from coffee then backwards a few turns, add first water, wait 1 - 1.5 minutes, add the rest of water. Getting the bean grind is the hardest part, but after a few tries you will know.
thanks for the vid, yet notice two things: first, seemingly the dripping set is made with aluminum? if so, switch it to stainless type, 'cause aluminum is risky for human health when contact with hot food. second, isn't it supposed to use a presser to press down the coffee while dripping?
Thanks for your feedback! Whether or not to use a presser when making Vietnamese coffee is a matter of personal preference. While some people prefer to use a presser to get a stronger brew, I find that it makes the coffee taste too bitter. As for the use of aluminum dripping sets, you've raised a valid concern about potential health risks associated with using such materials with hot food. Using stainless steel or other non-reactive materials may be a safer option. Thanks for bringing this to my attention, and I'll be sure to keep it in mind when making Vietnamese coffee in the future.
Vivienne Andersson in Vietnam, people mostly used Robusta coffee, dark roast to get the bitterness of the coffee. I recommend 50% Arabica 50% Robusta for the best balance. Cheers mate.
I think coffee Phin has 4 parts, but you only use 3 parts to make a coffee, how's about another one? And can you share more what is the name of your method? And how many simple methods to make coffee that every Vietnamese can do? I really appreciate your sharing.
The 4th one is actually optional. If you press the powder, it will drip very slowly, coffee gets thicker & feel like stronger & more bitter. However, longer brew extracts unwanted (unhealthy) chemical inside the coffee. That’s why keep the flow faster by not pressing the coffee is my suggestion. Hope you enjoy coffee morning, cheers mate.
Oh wow, is it really? I was cringing at the thought of sweetened condensed milk and ice, but if the coffee is strong enough to be enjoyed with such things it may be worth a try. I've tried a number of different methods to brew coffee ranging from Turkish coffee, French press (plunger), moka pot, cold brewed and of course regular drip (I haven't made espresso before). Now i'm seeing an ad on facebook of a "new" phin filter and that's how I got here. I decided to do research on this type of coffee. Happy brewing all!
Don't make it strong! Use a light or medium roast Arabica or use more water to dilute. Doesn't have to be Vietnamese coffee with chicory! I use a medium roast high-grown SHB Thai Arabica and it comes out great in a phin. I am a guy with espresso machine, French press, pour over Hario equipment, Aeropress, but I still like my Phin from Da Nang in 2020. It's easy to travel with and goes with me all over. Pack it in suitcase easily.
Original Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk use Robusta beans which are bitter and can be balanced by the sweetness of the condensed milk. However, our fav ratio is 1:1 (Robusta: Arabica), but again, there is no perfect ratio. I recommend mixing between two types of beans. Are you an Arabica drinker?
Lack of a filter (inside the phin) to tamp the grounds down, the drips should descend slowly not as fast as yours, làm sai rồi, cái phin mất mất cái đồ nén, cafe thì chảy quá trời vậy là biết ko đặc rồi, dạy sai người ta rồi mà cũng đăng

@@seeyouinvietnam hi! Can you suggest what brand is the best robusta Vietnamese coffee bean you can find in Hochimin?
Best video on Vietnamese coffee I've seen, particularly showing the bloom
Great. Cheers. simple technique, more focus on the quality of the beans.
Agreed. This guy is good.
I loved making my first phin filter morning coffee using this video! Love the relaxing backing music too!
one of the best morning ritual ^^ I love vietnamese coffee
Huỳnh Mai Nguyễn you know what is the best combo: Banh my & cafe sua da
Thank you. Probably one of the best videos I have found, including measurements and everything.
This tutorial has always been helpful. Tried Vietnamese coffee once and it's one of my daily routine
My mom received a phin as a souvenir from her friend for long time ago and we had no idea what to do with it 😂
I’ll try this recipe, thx for sharing ❤️
Time to bring old stuff to use
Watch You Tube and you can learn anything.
Perfect English. Sober and sound explanation. Please more about adding coconut milk and milk. Excellent comment on what is perfection. Different grind, Type and quantity of coffee, tightening or not or just gravity. Temperature of water. So much to explore
Thank you!!! I just got a phin and I am excited to use it
Thanks for the video. I have loved my visits to your country. The great coffee is always appreciated along with the beauty and kindness.
hope you can come back one day, for a cup of coffee, maybe.
No doubt I will return. Hopefully next summer.
Thank you. This is the first Phin video I have seen that told me the weight of coffee to grind. Very useful. The others are like "2 or 3 tablespoons".
To be fair with others, he used 3 tbsp 😁
Thanks, I just bought a PHIN filter and I didn't know how to use it. Now I found a way to get the best coffee taste

This is one of my favorite ways to enjoy coffee. Philippines 🇵🇭 born raised in 🇨🇦
What you need is some good coffee beans. That's it! Brewing a good cup of coffee doesn't need to be that difficult
Yeah don't blame you for leaving Canada. It's for the frigid blooded! Coffee is so much better in ASEAN countries and Timmies is for the misguided masses as far as I'm concerned.
Hello from Australia, thanks for this video! Has helped me a lot! Finally got it right thank you thank you thank you!
Hey. Glad that we can help.
I just had a bottle of refrigerated Vietnamese coffee the other day and it’s to die for. I’d really want to try it out some day
How was it?
@@seeyouinvietnam I tried making it twice and it tasted nearly as the bottle. 😋

Tôi đã làm món này thường xuyên và video của bạn là video hay nhất mà tôi từng thấy dành cho bất kỳ ai muốn pha chế đồ uống tuyệt vời này.
Awesome. Thanks for the explanation.
Great and informative video.
I always have one cup of coffee every morning. It's so good!
It really is!
Excellent video. Thanks for sharing!

Things will be back to normal soon. We have been through 2 years in hell, things could not go worse. Fingers crossed and hey, see you in Vietnam
Thanks! I just got a fin but it’s a screw down. Is that still good?
Hi Jack Rinderer,
Yes, it is. It is a new version of "Phin" but still good.

Nice video, greetings from Colombia
For even more authentic style, make sure to use a Chicory coffee...
What is different to ice milk coffee???
Great job ! Good content 👍🏻 keep up the good work💗

damn his English accent sounds more native than me. I immigrated into the US 14 years ago.
Where online can I get the PHIN to buy?

It's called gravity press or plate. Not needed most of the time. I don't use it either.
I wish to purchase a phin but I’m not sure what size. What size or how many ounces is the phin you used in this video?
Many thanks.
I've read that 4oz is perfect for a single cup
I think we can buy grinded coffee beans at any coopmart store, can't we?
Suggest me some good ones, please!
Thanks.
Nice coffee from Indonesia
It looks yum ..
Wait I wanna ask, when you pour the first hot water and wait 40 seconds, how did your coffee not drip? I'm confused
just pour enough water to soak the coffee powder.
Oh my god, I love Vietnamese coffee although it's so strong!!!
Thank you!
Oh wow, is it really? I was cringing at the thought of sweetened condensed milk and ice, but if the coffee is strong enough to be enjoyed with such things it may be worth a try.

interesting he didn't use the top filter which normally distributes the water evenly. Probably because he has master the pouring
I personally don't find the lid that useful, the blooming powder often pushes up the lid, I see newly designed phin filter has solved this problem.
Thank you! ♡
Great video.
How to make hot coffee? 5 mins of brewing the coffee won't go cokd?
Finally. Thanks for this video
Hope you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
Where can I find robusta beans? Mine brewed too quickly; about 2 minutes.
generally with coffee, if it brewed too quickly, it was ground too finely. For Vietnamese coffee you need it to be coarse.
@@magalilopez1890 Hi, actually, grinding more finely slows the passage of water. David has probably ground too coarsely.
sao bạn ko dùng tim gài để nén cà phê lại 😂
Why do you used Rabasta beans? Can't it be made from Arabica beans??
What is the ratio Vietnam coffee ingredients with Ratio tell me..!!
Make a video
Original Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk use Robusta beans which are bitter and can be balanced by the sweetness of the condensed milk. However, our fav ratio is 1:1 (Robusta: Arabica), but again, there is no perfect ratio. I recommend mixing between two types of beans. Are you an Arabica drinker?
@@seeyouinvietnambasically Vietnam strong coffee so without condensed milk can we used only robusta bean's it's okay??
anh ơi, cái nắp là "LID" ạ
Cám ơn bạn, để mình sửa lại.
👌👌💫💫🙏
I do like the vietnamese tiny hos.
" Consider ALL "the pieces/ things" needed = TOO MUCH - period. "
SUGGESTION: Boil water + Instant Coffee + Honey (Creamer, optional), stir and enjoy.
the more instant coffee you consume, the faster you can have stomach problems. Trust me
Lack of a filter (inside the phin) to tamp the grounds down, the drips should descend slowly not as fast as yours, làm sai rồi, cái phin mất mất cái đồ nén, cafe thì chảy quá trời vậy là biết ko đặc rồi, dạy sai người ta rồi mà cũng đăng
Oh no, not the robusta ! 😟
condensed milk? give me a break. that's pathetic
It's traditional - the way they do it.
You forgot to fill the cup with 20kg of ice, much like every damn drink in Vietnam (Profit!! 😆)
