December Dripper

Classic Immersion

The official December brewing guide uses the dripper's fully closed valve for a classic immersion preparation, followed by a clean release. Stable ceramic heat and unrestricted steeping build a reliable, full-bodied cup without elaborate pouring.

Notes

Warm both brewer and server before dosing because the ceramic can absorb substantial heat. Pour 270g evenly, stir the slurry gently, and release after 3 min. Coarsen if the drained cup is silty or drying.
