Four-Pour Zig-Zag

Tawansunshine23's Kawah-style V60 uses 4 count measured pours, placing a zig-zag pass between circular additions. The changing gestures distribute water across the bed for an evenly extracted cup with defined sweetness and body.

Notes

Keep circular pours within the coffee bed and make the middle zig-zag deliberate, never sweeping onto bare filter. Land precisely at 300g with the final addition. If one side drains faster, narrow the zig-zag before changing grind.
