1-2-1 Method

V60 02 V60 by Lance Hedrick

Lance Hedrick's 1:2:1 method centers on a long, thoroughly agitated bloom followed by 1 count uninterrupted main pour. That simple structure prepares the bed for even extraction and a clear, articulate V60 cup.

Notes

Hold the bloom for 2 min and treat it as the main control point: wet the whole bed, then swirl firmly enough to eliminate dry pockets. Begin the main pour after degassing settles, maintain an even stream, and adjust grind rather than adding extra pours.
