Notes from Orea

Because the Z1 sends all water through the bed, keep the stream on the coffee rather than washing the filter wall. Adjust grind before agitation: finer for a thin result, coarser if the zero-bypass drawdown stalls.

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
