Cafec Flower Oval 102

Dark Roast

CAFEC's official dark-roast recipe for the Flower Oval 102 combines cool water, coarse grounds, and restrained pulses. The broad bed releases trapped gas evenly, helping the larger brew land sweet and full with low acidity and no ashy edge.

Notes

Keep 87°C as the upper limit and grind coarse enough for clean dual-outlet drainage. Saturate the wide bloom evenly but avoid vigorous stirring. If roastiness dominates, coarsen by 1 notch before reducing temperature.
