Small Dose

Solo v1 Misc pourover by Jackie Tran

Jackie Tran created this reduced-dose Solo method for scarce coffees such as Geisha, letting a portion become a complete brew while the remainder can be cupped. Its staged extraction seeks aroma, clear flavor separation, and a soft, rounded finish.

Notes

Use medium-coarse coffee, low-mineral water, and a Solo Hiflux lyocell filter when available; its higher oil passage favors aroma and a round texture. Saturate the small bed completely at the start, direct the middle pour through the center, then cool the final pour to 85°C to limit late bitterness.
