Brew it right
Lighter roasts are denser beans. Hotter water and a slow pour bring the sweetness forward.
Pour-over
Best match- Ratio
- 1:16 · 22 g coffee to 350 g water (about 12 oz)
- Grind
- Medium-fine, like table salt
- Water
- 205°F (96°C)
- Time
- 3–4 minutes total
Bloom first: wet the grounds with about 50 g of water, wait 30–45 seconds, then pour slowly in circles.
Drip machine
- Ratio
- 1:16 · about 2 level tablespoons per 6 oz of water
- Grind
- Medium, like coarse sand
- Water
- Filtered, at the machine’s setting
- Time
- 4–6 minutes
Rinse the carafe and basket between pots. Old coffee oils go stale and turn a good cup bitter.
