Crystal Eye Light Roast

Timemore Crystal Eye Timemore by Timemore

Timemore's brewing guide tunes the Crystal Eye for light roasts with hotter water, a medium-fine grind, and five pulse pours. The method pursues high, even extraction and a cup with pronounced sweetness, vivid acidity, and transparent flavor.

Notes

Preheat the glass and rinse the filter thoroughly before adding coffee. Keep the five pulses at 50g each, let the slurry settle slightly between them, and swirl gently after the bloom; grind coarser if later pulses begin to stall.
