Clever Dark Roast

by Kaldi's Coffee

Clever Dripper recipe tailored for dark roast coffees. Lower temperature and coarser grind prevent bitterness. Shorter steep time respects the high solubility of dark roasts.

Notes

Dark roasts extract much faster than light roasts. This recipe uses cooler water (88°C) and coarser grind to slow extraction and prevent bitter, ashy flavors. The shorter 2-minute steep is sufficient for dark roasts. Release at 2:00 for a smooth, chocolatey cup.
