Notes from Orea

Keep circular pours low and controlled, then move cleanly to the center without stirring the bed. The small dose is sensitive to excess agitation, so reduce kettle height if the cup becomes harsh or muddled.

When it's done

It should finish dripping around 3:00. If not, change just one thing in the next cup:

  • Past 3:40? Grind coarser
  • Done before 2:20? Grind finer
  • Bitter or dry? Coarser, or cooler water
  • Sour and thin? Grind finer
