Cafec Flower Oval 101 Cafec by CAFEC

In CAFEC's official light-roast recipe for the Flower Oval 101, hotter water, a finer grind, and measured pulses use the open flower ribs to extract dense beans cleanly, aiming for a bright cup with floral lift and clear acidity.

Notes

Use 96°C with freshly boiled water loss minimized, and grind medium-fine. Swirl only enough to wet the bloom and level the bed; forceful agitation can move fines into the outlet. If acidity feels thin rather than lively, tighten the grind slightly.
