Step by Step

1.  Grind your coffee a medium grind size.

2. Weigh out approximately 15-25 grams.

3. Wet the filter before adding coffee to remove any papery taste.

4. Brewing coffee is a 15:1 ratio. This means, before adding the coffee to the filter, multiple the amount of grams of coffee you used by 15. For example, if you weighed out 20 grams of coffee, multiplying that by 15 would amount to 300. This is the amount of water needed for the brew (g=ml.)

5. Add the coffee and tare the scale.

6. Bloom the coffee by wetting all of the grounds without submerging. Wait until coffee stops bubbling or about 15 to 30 seconds. (See FAQ about degassing.)

7. After the bloom, starting in the middle of the filter, pour in a circular motion working outwards. Evenly wet the coffee grinds and avoid pouring down the side of the filter.

8. Pour in increments of roughly 50-100g depending on brew size.

9. Continuously add water without drowning the filter or letting the filter run empty.

10. Brew time should be 3 minutes not including the bloom; if the brew is too fast, your coffee was ground too coarse and vice versa.
