Cafec Deep 27 Cafec

Kasuya 4:6

Kasuya's 4:6 method ported to the Deep 27. Five even centre pours of 45g each, separated by 45 seconds. The first 40% controls sweetness/acidity balance, the last 60% controls strength. Pick the roast on the recipe screen — the water temperature follows.

Notes

Five centre pours of 45g every 45 seconds: 0:00, 0:45, 1:30, 2:15, 2:45. Total 225g. Designed for V60 originally — the Deep 27's steep cone absorbs the longer total contact time well because all pours land in the same column. The coarse grind is non-negotiable. Without it the deep bed turns a 4:00 brew into a 5:00 stall. For sweeter cups, weight the second pour heavier than the first (40g/50g). For brighter, weight the first (50g/40g). Ratio: 67g/L. Drawdown around 4:00. Kasuya's published temps: 93°C light, 88°C medium, 83°C dark — use the roast selector to switch.
