10/30/2020 My Best Brew Protocol on Pour-over![]() I brew most coffees the first time using a 1:16 ratio (21 g/340 g water) on my go-to Origami dripper with a Kalita filter and adjust it as necessary to achieve a pleasing extraction profile. If the brew is too slow (longer than 3:30 mins) I will next try a V60 filter with the Origami dripper to reduce the total brew time (TBT). If the brew tastes too dense or lacks distinct flavor notes I repeat the brew at 1:17. If that still doesn't make the coffee show off it's best flavor profile I try different drippers: V60, Kalita or Beehouse until I find that sweet spot. My brew protocol is as follows: At 0 secs pour 50 ml with a 30 second bloom (no stirring) then pour in pulses: at 1 min pour 50 mls, at 1:30, 2 and 2:30 and 3 mins pour 60 ml each for a total brew time of 3:15-3:30 mins and a total water volume of 340 ml. Do a gentle swirl after the 2:30 min pour to enhance extraction. |
