Kono Meimon
Kono Meimon Misc pourover by Kurasu

Kurasu Kyoto's Kono Meimon method draws on Japanese kissaten brewing, using six small pours and a delicate toothpick stir. The low-agitation sequence is designed for a rich, complex cup with rounded sweetness and measured clarity.

Notes

Stir lightly with a thin toothpick after the first pour, just enough to wet hidden dry grounds. Deliver six 40g pulses with 10s to 15s rests, keeping every pour away from the filter wall.
