Bloom then Continuous Pour

Hario Mugen Hario others by Hario

Attributed to Hario and documented by Coffeeness, this Mugen method follows a bloom with one uninterrupted main pour. The star-like ribs provide flow resistance, reducing kettle work while aiming for an even, clean, balanced cup.

Notes

Use the bloom to saturate the entire bed, especially grounds near the smooth walls, then maintain one calm stream. Avoid pulsing, which changes the Mugen's designed wall contact. If the center hollows out, widen the pour path rather than stirring.
