Five Pour Micro Dose
by Lance Hedrick for Cafec Deep 27 original source (youtube.com)
Lance Hedrick's Deep 27 video presents this five-pour micro-dose for leftover or rare beans. A double bloom and larger middle pulse exploit the brewer's narrow bed, producing a properly extracted small cup rather than a hollow one.

Notes from Lance Hedrick
Grind coarser than for a normal V60; bed depth and repeated pulses supply contact time. The two-stage bloom should saturate the tiny bed completely before the larger middle pour raises slurry heat. Use a smooth stream without added stirring, and omit the final pulse if bitterness persists after coarsening.

- Bitter or dry? Coarser, or cooler water
- Sour and thin? Grind finer
