Blue Bottle Dripper

Quick Pour-Over

Blue Bottle's streamlined single-cup method takes a no-fuss approach: a centered bloom followed by one steady spiral pour. Designed for the Blue Bottle dripper, it also works with other cone drippers.

Notes

Blue Bottle's simplified method drops the multi-stage pours for a quick, reliable morning cup. Bloom to saturate, then one steady pour to completion. The key is a consistent, slow spiral from center outward. Total brew time around 2:30 makes this the fastest quality pour-over method.
