Notes

Hoffmann recommends 60% hot water, 40% ice by total weight. So for 250g of hot water, use ~165g of ice in the server. Fine grind and boiling water extract intensely from the reduced water volume. The rapid cooling on ice preserves volatile aromatics that make iced pour-over superior to cold brew.
