Ultimate Technique

Cafec Deep Pro Cafec by James Hoffmann

James Hoffmann's V60 Ultimate Technique is adapted here to the larger Cafec Deep Pro and its tall bed. A bloom, two main pours, and controlled finishing agitation aim for a balanced batch with clarity and even extraction.

Notes

Start slightly coarser than the V60 setting because the deep bed adds resistance. Swirl the bloom firmly enough to flatten it, then keep the final stir near the wall and gentle; if drawdown exceeds 5.5 min, coarsen one click.
