Notes from April Coffee Roasters

Use 13g (0.5 oz) and 94°C (201.2°F), keeping both pours calm and repeatable. This profile can suit less soluble commercial coffees, but freshness still matters. If heavier blends taste muddy, coarsen the grind and reduce agitation before lowering heat.

When it's done

It should finish dripping around 2:30. If not, change just one thing in the next cup:

  • Past 3:00? Grind coarser
  • Done before 2:00? Grind finer
  • Bitter or dry? Coarser, or cooler water
  • Sour and thin? Grind finer
