Cafec Deep 27 Cafec

Ultimate Technique

by James Hoffmann

Hoffmann's Ultimate V60 Technique adapted to the Deep 27. Two main pours, all to the centre — the steep cone wants a single column of water, not the slow spirals you would use on a V60.

Notes

Pour to the centre rather than spiralling. The 27-degree cone funnels everything through one tall column of grounds — agitating the walls does little. Grind one click coarser than the V60 version (medium, not medium-fine). The deep bed extends contact time on its own; finer grind here pushes drawdown past 4:30. Temperature drops slightly to 95°C from boiling — the longer contact time of the deep bed compensates. Ratio: 60g/L. Drawdown target around 4:00.
