Easy For Two
by Orea for Orea V4 Narrow original source (orea.uk)
OREA's V4 guide expands Easy Does It into a two-cup Narrow recipe, using negotiated Flat paper and five spiral pours. A coarser grind offsets the larger bed and longer brew, seeking an approachable batch with even sweetness and dependable clarity.

Notes from Orea
Distribute every spiral across the full bed and keep the pulse sizes consistent. Start coarser than for a single cup; if the batch tastes thin despite a clean drawdown, tighten the grind rather than adding agitation.
