Light Roast

Melitta 1x2 Misc pourover by Melitta

Melitta's coffee guide underpins this light-roast recipe for the 1x2. It combines energetic extraction with the brewer's naturally restricted flow to develop dense beans into a sweet, vivid cup with balanced acidity.

Notes

Start finer than for a darker roast and keep the flat bed evenly saturated without flooding the filter edge. If the cup is sour while drawdown remains quick, grind finer; if it is astringent or slow, coarsen before changing pouring style.
