Blue Bottle Dripper

Full Cup

Blue Bottle's complete pour-over recipe uses a centered bloom followed by three controlled spiral pours. The measured pulses and thorough filter-side coverage produce a full, sweet cup with caramel character.

Notes

Uses Kalita Wave 185 filter. Pre-heat the dripper thoroughly — thick ceramic absorbs significant heat. Pour all the way to the side walls to rinse the filter pleats. Target brew time of 3:00-3:30.
