Kono Meimon Misc pourover by Kono

Kono's classic Meimon method showcases the Japanese cone's ribs at the lower section and sealing walls above. A restrained center pour works with that geometry to produce controlled flow, satisfying body, and clean sweetness.

Notes

Seat the paper firmly against the smooth upper wall and keep the pour centered so the intended seal remains intact. Use a quiet stream without swirling; change grind size, not pour width, when correcting strength or drawdown.
