Concentric Circles

Hario Mugen Hario others by Lamill Coffee

Lamill Coffee's method, attributed to Wyatt Smeaton, uses one slow concentric pour in the Hario Mugen, moving from the center outward. Gentle delivery works with the restricted walls to create a clean, even, balanced cup.

Notes

Keep the kettle close and expand circles gradually without pouring directly onto the paper. The stream should remain slow enough that the slurry rises evenly rather than channeling down one side. If drawdown drags, coarsen before increasing pour speed.
