2013瑞典爱乐压大赛冠军Dinh的故事，附冠军制作方法中国咖啡网

　　Last month the Swedish AeroPress Championship, one of many national championships taking place around the world, was held at Koppi Coffee in Helsingborg, Sweden. Twenty-one competitors came from all corners of Sweden to participate in a shop packed full of friends, family and coffee curious individuals. The grand prize was a round trip ticket to Melbourne for the winner to represent Sweden in the 2013 World AeroPress Championship. The stakes were high, and many of Sweden’s best baristas had shown up to throw down—but Dinh Nguyensson took us all by surprise

　　上个月瑞典爱乐压大赛(其他各国爱乐压大赛也如火如荼地进行)在瑞典赫尔辛基的的Koppi咖啡馆举办。来自瑞典各地的21名选手参赛，还有很多老朋友，咖啡爱好者聚集在此。特等奖奖项是代表瑞典去墨尔本参加2013界世界爱乐压大赛的机票，奖金也相当丰厚，以致吸引了许多顶级咖啡师到场，而Dinh Nguyensson表现相当出色。

　　The final round of three competitors included Dinh, Lisa Raeder from Johan & Nystöm Stockholm, & Johan Moren from DROP Coffee. Each competitor was given eight minutes to brew their best cup. Dinh began boiling his water as he weighed and hand ground his beans, then brewed and pressed into a metal pitcher, swirled to cool and then presented his cup to the judges. Still with plenty of time left, Dinh calmed his nerves by keeping busy cleaning his station. After Lisa and Johan presented their cups the judges tasted and debated which cup was the best.

　　总决赛包括Dinh, Lisa Raeder from Johan，Nystöm Stockholm, 以及来自DROP Coffee的 Johan Moren。每个参赛选手都有8分钟时间来制作最好的咖啡。Dinh在煮水的同时，称重，磨粉，然后冲泡，按压到一个金色水壶中，最后搅拌使其适当降温供给评委品尝。他时间把握的相当好，但埋怨自己在忙着清理桌面的时候很紧张。接着 Lisa和Johan也完成各自的咖啡，最后评委选出最佳咖啡。

　　The judges first awarded 3rd place to Lisa. Then 2nd place to Johan. In the excitement of the reveal, Dinh thought Johan had won. But Dinh was surprised once again to realize that he took 1st place! He couldn’t believe it, he actually did it. In his own words, “then I really began to shake,” shake with excitement. After a couple of beers, the shaking subsided and he piled back into a car to head home as the new Aeropress Champ.

　　首先，裁判颁奖给季军Lisa，然后亚军John，兴奋之余，Dinh以为冠军是Johan，令人惊讶的是他自己获得冠军。他表示比赛开始时候很紧张，在喝完两瓶啤酒，没有紧张感之后，带着新一届的冠军荣誉回家。

　　This week Dinh will represent Sweden in the World Aeropress Championship. Although he’s feeling some pressure, he doesn’t plan to change his routine much at all. Dinh’s only desire is to brew a cup that he would enjoy & hopefully the judges will too. DROP coffee not only inspired Dihn, but is also home to this year’s Swedish Barista Cup & Brewer Champions: Oskar & Nico. DROP invited Dinh to practice together with them for Melbourne; where Dinh will be visiting for his first time.

　　这周Dinh将会代表瑞典参加世界爱乐压大赛。虽然他感到一些压力，但他没有太多改变他的行程，他只是喜欢到时候做出一杯自己而且裁判也喜欢的咖啡就可以。

　　DROP不仅激励Dihn,还将会回到今年的瑞典咖啡以及冲泡大赛(在Oskar&Nico)DROP邀请Dinh跟他们一起参加墨尔本总决赛，这将是他的第一次墨尔本之旅。

　　Dinh’s first motivation is still what propels him in the coffee world today—to meet new people. He is grateful for all those he has met so far. To him, the AeroPress is the door into the specialty coffee world, and it’s open to everyone—just like the community of welcoming coffee people.

　　他进入咖啡行业最初的想法很简单 - 为了结交新朋友。他很开心如今基本已实现，对他说，爱乐压是打开精品咖啡世界的大门，欢迎所有爱好咖啡的人进来，就像一个大家庭。
