Preparation
Before we start brewing, there are some things we need to prepare.
- Have a kettle ready with at least 500 ml of water, a scale and a grinder.
- We will be setting our kettle for 100℃ degrees.
Brewing
Weigh out 18 grams of coffee. | |
Rinse the filter with hot water. Ceramic has a high specific heat capacity, so we need to warm up the brewer to prevent heat absorption. | |
Place the ground coffee into the brewer. We will bloom the coffee with 60 grams of water, and we will let it bloom for 45 seconds. | |
Perform the first pour by adding water in slow concentric circles until the scale reads 180G. | |
Let it drain for 15-20 seconds. | |
Starting from the outside, perform the second pour adding water in slow concentric circles until the scale reads 300G. | |
We will let it finish draining. Bonus points if there is no coffee on the sides of the filter. | |
Enjoy! |
