Torch Donut Dripper

Deep Dark

Torch Donut Dripper Misc pourover by Kurasu

Kurasu's recipe is tailored to medium-dark and dark roasts, combining a coarse grind with a concentrated brew ratio. It seeks the intense body and depth associated with Japanese kissaten coffee while avoiding a harsh finish.

    Brewer removed before full drawdown. Brew complete.

Notes

Use a coarse, even grind and watch the late drawdown closely. Remove the dripper before all liquid exits if woody bitterness or astringency emerges; the internal step ribs already prolong contact enough to develop the intended full body.
