The Mid
by Orea for Orea O1 original source (orea.uk)
OREA positions The Mid between its Wide and Dara approaches for the O1, pairing Flat Paper and the Negotiator with a medium grind and cooler water. Its split circular and center pours favor rounded sweetness and restrained acidity.

You need
- Orea O1
- OREA Negotiator OREA Neo Negotiator
- Scale
- Water at 92 °C
Prepare
- Shape and seat the flat filter against the brewer walls with the fitting tool.
Notes from Orea
Seat the Flat Paper fully with the Negotiator so no folds create bypass. After blooming, use circular pouring to engage the whole bed, then center the stream to limit late agitation and preserve the round profile.
