Notes

This standardized approach is used by many competitors as a baseline. Five equal pours at 30-second intervals create reproducible results. The 1:15 ratio and medium grind work as a starting point — adjust temperature and grind to dial in specific coffees. Best with light roast geisha or competition lots.
