V60 02

Jonathan Gagné

Coffee ad Astra author Jonathan Gagne developed this V60 approach for high, even extraction, combining boiling water, a nest-shaped bloom, and a slow flower-pattern pour. It seeks exceptional clarity, sweetness, and flavor definition.

Notes

Shape a shallow nest before blooming so water reaches the deepest grounds quickly, then ensure no dry clumps remain. Pour slowly in a flower pattern, crossing the center more often than the perimeter. Use 100°C and a medium-fine grind; coarsen if fines clog the filter or the finish dries out.
