Brewing recipe

  • Coffee: 20 g, freshly ground

  • Ratio: 1:16
  • Water temperature: 94°C / 201–202°F

Method

  1. Bring fresh, filtered water to a boil.
  2. Place and rinse the filter, then discard the rinse water.
  3. Add the ground coffee and gently level the bed.
  4. Start your timer. Pour 40 g of water, saturating all the grounds, and bloom for 30 seconds.
  5. Pour slowly in circles until the scale reaches 150 g. Pause for 10 seconds.
  6. Continue pouring in controlled circles until you reach 320 g.
  7. Let the brew finish draining, give it a gentle swirl and enjoy.

Pro tip

If the brew takes longer than 3:30, use a slightly coarser grind. If it finishes too quickly, grind slightly finer. Adjust to taste while keeping the 1:16 coffee-to-water ratio.
