Bloom Pulse Pour

by Gota Team for Espro Bloom

A pulse technique for the Espro Bloom that works with the brewer's dense outlet pattern by repeatedly replenishing the slurry. The staged percolation aims for even extraction, rounded sweetness, and balanced body.

Notes from Gota Team

Keep pulse size and pouring height consistent, allowing the slurry to fall between additions without letting the bed run dry. The perforated base spreads drainage, so avoid forceful circles that drive fines downward. If each pulse drains more slowly, coarsen or move the stream closer to center.

When it's done

It should finish dripping around 3:00. If not, change just one thing in the next cup:

  • Past 3:40? Grind coarser
  • Done before 2:20? Grind finer
  • Bitter or dry? Coarser, or cooler water
  • Sour and thin? Grind finer
