Weber Bird

1:10 with Bypass

Weber Bird Weber by Simon Gautherin

Simon Gautherin's contribution to Weber Workshops' BIRD recipes, associated with Apax Lab in Sydney, uses a very coarse grind and concentrated immersion. Bypass after release tunes the strength toward a clear, expressive cup.

Notes

Keep the grind uniformly coarse and complete the pull before judging concentration. Add hot bypass water in small, weighed increments, tasting between additions; bypass changes strength but cannot repair under-extraction. Grind finer if dilution exposes sourness.
