Notes

The "Sustainable" profile is April's recipe for non-competition coffees — everyday single origins and blends. Slightly higher dose (13g vs 12g) and warmer water (94°C vs 92°C) increase extraction from coffees that aren't competition-grade. Two simple pours make this the most approachable April recipe.
