Orea V4 Narrow

Easy For Two

Orea V4 Narrow Orea by Orea

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.

You'll need

  • OREA Negotiator Required

    A moulding tool that seats a flat paper filter tightly against the walls of OREA's narrow flat-bottom brewers (V2, V3, V4 Narrow, O1, and the glass/porcelain models), so the paper hugs the walls and forms a low-bypass bed — forcing water through the coffee instead of around it, for higher and more consistent extraction. You press it in to shape the paper, then pull it out before drawdown; it does not restrict flow. Pair with OREA flat paper.

Notes

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.
