Competition
by Tricolate for Tricolate original source (tricolate.com)
Tricolate's competition guide exploits the brewer's no-bypass construction and shower screen, removing agitation from most of the extraction. The method is designed for controlled, high extraction and a transparent cup suited to exceptional coffee.
Before you start
You need
- Tricolate
- Scale
- Water at 95 °C (203 °F)
Prepare
- Add 15g (0.5 oz) of coffee and level the bed.
- Fit the dispersion screen over the bed.
Notes from Tricolate
Level the bed carefully before fitting the shower screen, since the brewer will not rely on pouring to redistribute grounds. Make grind size the primary dial: go finer for more sweetness and strength, but coarser if drawdown stalls or the cup dries.
