The OG Base #2

Orea V4 Narrow Orea by Orea

OREA's V4 guide calls this the OG Base, a foundational Narrow recipe using the Classic Bottom and Wave paper. Four evenly spaced circular pours and a higher dose favor a rich, full-bodied cup while remaining repeatable as a baseline method.

Notes

Center the Wave filter and wet it thoroughly before dosing. Keep the four circles equal and avoid pouring against the wall; if richness becomes muddled, grind slightly coarser while preserving the higher-dose structure.
