Coffee: 17.5g

Instructions

  1. Bloom the coffee with 50g of water for 1 minute, ensuring the coffee bed is fully saturated and level.
  2. Pour an additional 100g of water (totaling 150g) in a controlled, turbulent flow at a rate of 8-10g per second.
  3. Let the most of the water drain, you should be around 1 minute 45 seconds before your next pour.
  4. Once most of the water has drained, pour the remaining 150g of water in the same turbulent flow.
  5. Gently swirl the brewer to capture any grounds on the edge and to level the coffee bed, this prevents channeling.
