Light Roast

Orea V3 MK2 Orea by Orea

OREA's V3 guide pairs the V3 MK2 with light-roasted coffee, a finer grind, hotter water, and slight Negotiator restriction. The added contact and thermal energy aim for full extraction, vivid sweetness, and clear origin character.

OREA Negotiator Required

A moulding tool that seats a flat paper filter tightly against the walls of OREA's narrow flat-bottom brewers (V2, V3, V4 Narrow, O1, and the glass/porcelain models), so the paper hugs the walls and forms a low-bypass bed — forcing water through the coffee instead of around it, for higher and more consistent extraction. You press it in to shape the paper, then pull it out before drawdown; it does not restrict flow. Pair with OREA flat paper.

Notes

Set the Negotiator slightly restricted and brew at 96°C. Start fine, then judge drawdown and finish together: open the flow or coarsen if astringent, and tighten the grind if acidity remains hollow.
