Rinse filter: Place filter in your V60 and rinse with about 100g of hot (205°F) water. Pour out the water from the vessel into the sink.
0:00 - Bloom: Pour 70g of water in a spiral motion starting from the center and working outwards, saturating all the coffee.
0:45 - Second Pour: Pour to 300g starting in the center and moving outwards in a spiral motion. Make sure to end by circling back into the center of the device.
1:25 - Third Pour: Pour to 400g in a quick, spiral motion.
1:55 - Fourth Pour: Pour steadily in the center until total weight reaches 500g.
Tips:
Aim for a total brew time of 3 to 4 minutes.
Examine your coffee bed after drawdown—a flat and even bed means that the coffee was evenly extracted.
If your total brew time is too long or short, adjust your grind size. A finer grind will slow down the drawdown time and result in a higher extraction.
The age of your coffee beans can affect overall extraction. For coffee 1-12 days off roast, lowering water temp to 200-203°F could result in a better cup.
