Instructions

  1. Heat water in a gooseneck kettle to 195-205 F while warming your serving cup.

  2. Grind coffee to medium-fine, then measure into the pour-over brewer; place the drip cone on the cup's rim after emptying the cup.

  3. Zero a scale and start a timer. Pour 1 3/4 oz (50ml) water over the grounds for a 30-45 second bloom.

  4. Slowly pour the remaining water, up to 10 oz (300ml) total, in even circles over the coffee, avoiding the cone, pausing as needed.

  5. Achieve a total brew time of 3-4 minutes (medium roast) or 2.5-3 minutes (dark roast). Tap the cone to release residual coffee, remove it, and serve.
