Timemore Crystal Eye

High Temp

Timemore Crystal Eye Timemore by Green Plantation

Green Plantation's Crystal Eye method uses near-boiling water to increase extraction in the moderately flowing cone. Created for light-roast coffee, it seeks a sweet, expressive cup with clear acidity rather than muted or underdeveloped flavors.

Notes

Preheat the brewer and server so the high starting heat reaches the coffee bed. This approach suits dense, light roasts; if the cup becomes harsh, first grind slightly coarser or reduce agitation rather than making a large temperature change.
