Kono Meimon Misc pourover by Project Barista

Project Barista's Kono Meimon recipe divides extraction across four gentle pours. Combined with the cone's partial ribs and sealed upper wall, the measured rhythm is intended to build a sweet, full-bodied single cup with clean definition.

Notes

Set the grinder 1 click to 2 click coarser than a comparable V60 brew and fold the filter seams for a snug fit. Avoid swirling; watch slurry height between pours and coarsen further if it stops falling evenly.
