V60 02

Official

George Howell Coffee's official pour-over guide applies a drip-fine grind and gentle V60 pouring to light-roast single origins. The restrained extraction emphasizes transparent fruit and floral detail in a sweet, polished cup.

Notes

Use 96°C and keep the kettle low so the stream disturbs the bed minimally. This fine setting depends on controlled flow: if the finish is drying, coarsen slightly; if acidity is thin and grassy, tighten the grind while preserving gentle pours.
