You'll need

  • Kruve Sifter Required

    The Kruve Sifter is a set of stackable sieves that sort ground coffee by particle size. Sifting out the finest fines and the largest boulders narrows the grind distribution, so more of the bed extracts at the same rate — a cleaner, more even, more repeatable cup. Kruve is the best-known coffee sifter, with interchangeable screens across a range of micron sizes.

Notes

Double-grind: first coarse to remove chaff, then fine (Kinu setting 4). Sift at 100-200μm to remove bitter fines. Yields 58-64g concentrate, bypass to 150g. Target TDS: 1.3-1.35.
