Cafec Flower Oval 101 Cafec

Single Pour

by CAFEC

Cafec's simplest gesture for the Flower Oval 101 — bloom, swirl, then one continuous pour to 200g. Less to track, easier to repeat, leans on the trapezoid's deep bed and calm drainage to do most of the work.

Notes

After bloom, the kettle never stops moving until the water reaches 200g — that's the whole technique. Slow concentric circles, kettle held low, gentle stream. Pour over 60 seconds total. The bloom swirl is what makes the single pour reliable — without it the bed is uneven and the cup will be too. Best on medium roasts where balance is the goal; lighter roasts may need a fourth pour to finish, darker ones may overshoot here.
