Notes

Source: Blue Bottle Coffee (bluebottlecoffee.com). Grind to a French press consistency. Water should cool to 79.4-82.2°C (79-82°C) before brewing. Create a small indentation at the top of the coffee mound the size of a nickel. The first pour should be extremely slow: 45g over 45 seconds. Groom the grounds with a bamboo paddle before pouring.
