Pour Over

Parameters:

1. Coffee Beans: Use freshly roasted coffee beans and grind them to a medium-fine consistency, similar to granulated sugar.
2. Coffee Dose: A common starting point is a coffee-to-water ratio of 1:15 to 1:17. For example, for 200 grams of water, use around 14 grams of coffee.
3. Water Temperature: The water temperature should be around 194°F to 203 °F(90°C-95°C).
4. Brew Time: The total brew time is typically between 2 to 2.5 minutes.

Procedure:

1. Boil water and let it cool for about 30 seconds to reach around 194°F to 203 °F(90°C-95°C).
2. Place the Pour-Over paper filter in the dripper and rinse it with hot water to preheat and eliminate any paper taste. Discard the rinse water.
3. Weigh and grind coffee beans to a medium-coarse consistency, similar to sea salt.
4. Place the Pour-Over on the scale and add the ground coffee.
5. Start the timer and pour hot water in a circular motion to saturate the coffee grounds evenly. Allow the coffee to bloom for 30 seconds.
6. Begin pouring water slowly in a circular motion, maintaining a consistent flow rate. Pour in small increments, working from the center outward and back.
7. Continue pouring until you reach your desired coffee-to-water ratio. Aim for a total brew time of 2 to 2.5 minutes.
8. Once the coffee has fully dripped through the Pour-Over, lift off the dripper and discard the used filter and coffee grounds.
9. Swirl the brewed coffee in your mug or carafe to mix the flavors.
10. Taste and savor your coffee, noting its aroma, flavor profile, and characteristics.

Note:

1) Water Temperature

• Light Roast: 100 C
• Medium Roast: 90-95 C
• Dark Roast: 80-85 C

2) Keep the spout relatively close to the bed of coffee. The higher you pour from the then the less agitation created in the coffee (Ideally, pour 5 grams of water per second)
