Cafec Flower Oval 101

Kasuya 4:6

Tetsu Kasuya's 4:6 method is adapted to the Cafec Flower Oval 101, whose trapezoid bed and single outlet drain more slowly than a cone. The recipe preserves flavor control while seeking clean strength and balance.

Notes

Start one click coarser than the conical reference and keep the timed gaps fixed even if the bed has not fully cleared. Use wider circles to wet the oval bed evenly; if the outlet chokes, coarsen instead of reducing the planned pours.
