Nordic Style

Kalita Wave 155 Kalita by Kalita

Kalita's Nordic-style Wave 155 recipe keeps the slurry continuously wet to sustain temperature and extraction in the small brewer. Tuned for light roasts, it emphasizes bright acidity, transparent flavor, and a clean, articulate finish.

Notes

Rinse the filter thoroughly and add each pour before the bed is exposed. Dial by taste with grind size: move coarser when bitterness or dryness appears, and finer when the cup is sour or lacks sweetness.
