Notes

Set up before you start: cover the filter support ridges with water, place the filter, open the valve to drain the base, insert the barrel, close the valve and add the coffee. Open the valve to 1:30 o'clock for the flush. Cool the kettle to 87°C before the flush pour. Keep the slurry near 1 cm during the pulses.
