You can also experiment with the water temperature to achieve your desired flavor profile and intensity. A hotter water temperature may speed up the brewing process, while a cooler temperature can result in a slower but richer brew. One popular option is to use flavored syrups, such as chocolate, caramel, vanilla, hazelnut, or coconut syrups. Simply drizzle the syrup over your cup of coffee, or stir it in along with the other ingredients to create a deliciously sweet and aromatic drink. Vietnam primarily grows Robusta, which contains more caffeine and tastes sharper and more bitter than Arabica. The Vietnamese also traditionally roasts coffee dark, making it more intense. To balance out the taste, the French and Vietnamese began to use sweetened condensed milk, partly because fresh milk was limited. The beans are also dark roasted. This allows the beans to retain more of their natural oils, which contributes to the coffee’s rich flavor.

We also got our hands on some of the Vietnamese coffee that the restaurant used. The condensed milk is the Longevity brand. Philip said he has been using the same brand for years! As for the Trung Nguyen brand of ground Vietnamese coffee, it has a deep rich flavor with just a tiny hint of hazelnut flavor. Vietnamese Coffee Recipe Instructions Bring your water to a boil, and then remove it from heat and let it sit for 60-90 seconds.

One of its distinct advantages is that instead of using a paper filter, it uses a metal filter— which, incidentally, is built-in. Both the brewing chamber and the filter plate act as metal filters. In an industry that produces an inconceivably high quantity of waste, the phin filter stands out for not needing paper filters or even replaceable metal ones . A good way to make a great way to do this is to try adding flavors like cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla extract to your coffee. You can also experiment with using different types of beans and roasts, depending on your personal preferences and what you have available. You can describe the Vietnamese coffee brewing method as a cross between the French press and the pour-over. The phin sits on top of your mug or glass like a pour-over dripper, but the coffee has time to infuse longer due to the small filter holes. How it works: Cold water is added the reservoir, and ground coffee is added to a filter. Water heats up and passes through the beans through what looks like a shower head. Brewed coffee is then dispensed into a glass carafe that sits atop a hot plate, which keeps the coffee warm.

Vietnamese coffee filter set by Thang Long (gravity insert)For a long time, my own coffee consumption looked very different from my parents’. For me, as an adult, coffee was almost always taken on-the-go: between the subway and work, on a lunch break, or among a crowd of strangers moving through the day. But after years of waking up and grabbing coffee on the way to something, I’ve recently started embracing the coffee phin—the Vietnamese coffee-making device often described as a crossover between a pour-over and French press—as a way to pause and engage in a coffee tradition that makes me feel connected with my family. This intentional slowness, while not new to the artisan coffee scene, is what so many emerging Vietnamese coffee brands are hoping to bring to coffee drinkers of all sorts. A number of Vietnamese and Vietnamese American entrepreneurs are working to put the phin on our collective coffee radar and give Vietnamese coffee its long overdue moment in the spotlight. Their phins are sourced from Vietnamese manufacturers or personally designed, and their beans are grown in partnership with farms in Vietnam. For these brands, it’s not just about getting caffeine from cup to brain—it’s about carving out a place for a coffee tradition that’s largely been overlooked in artisan coffee culture.
