Cupping Protocol

Weber Bird Weber by Andrew Pernicano

Andrew Pernicano's method in the Weber Workshops BIRD guide translates cupping-table evaluation into a brewer: a long, quiet immersion and gentle vacuum preserve separation, clarity, and an honest view of the coffee.

Notes

Lay a well-rinsed Sibarist paper over the metal screen and avoid stirring so fines settle naturally. Apply vacuum gradually; a hard pull can disturb the bed and trade the intended cupping-like clarity for sediment.
