Melitta 1x2

Voltage Coffee's Melitta 1x2 method uses spaced pulse pours for a larger batch. Its measured dilution and bed-led rhythm seek a clean, balanced result with moderate body, making the cup accessible rather than intensely concentrated.

Notes

Keep every pulse over the coffee rather than the paper edge, where displaced fines can obstruct the single outlet. Wait until the bed is visible before pouring again; use a coarser grind if later pulses drain progressively slower.
