Multi-Pour

by Tetsu Kasuya

Tetsu Kasuya's newest recipe, built as the opposite of the short, fine-grind competition trend: an extreme coarse grind, hot 96°C water, and ten small pours that build a thick, almost syrupy body. He calls it the Multi-Pour.

Notes

The idea is to add positives, not remove negatives: the coarse grind avoids bitterness while the long, ten-pour extraction builds sweetness and body. Ten equal 30g pours build a thick, almost syrupy texture. The bloom rests 30 seconds, then pour every 15 seconds, always onto a nearly drained bed so water never pools. Best for light roasts at 96°C — it tones acidity down and makes sweetness dominant, so dark roasts and acidity-forward cups are not the target. The cup gets even better as it cools. If it tastes too weak, grind a touch finer or gently agitate the server. Kasuya brews it on a V60 or Neo.

Grinder

40 clicks on a Comandante C40 — 45 is the extreme edge and can taste thin.
