Orea V4 Narrow

V4 Narrow Dark Roast

Orea's V4 Narrow dark-roast method uses cooler water and coarse grounds alongside the brewer's restricted flow. Its goal is a rounded cup that preserves roast sweetness while avoiding bitterness and stalled drainage.

Notes

Begin coarse enough for a steady drawdown, since dark-roast fines can obstruct the Narrow outlet. Use 88°C as the key bitterness control, then adjust grind coarser if smoky dryness remains.
