Five Equal Pours

2018 German Barista Champion Nicole Battefeld's V60 recipe uses 5 count equal pours with slow circular coverage. Designed for honest flavor, it preserves body while allowing natural acidity, sweetness, and origin character to stay distinct.

Notes

Keep all 5 count pulses equal and trace slow circles within the grounds, avoiding the paper edge. Light to medium single origins suit the balance best. If acidity dominates, grind slightly finer; if body becomes rough or drying, coarsen the grind.
