Dark Roast

Origami Air recipe optimized for dark roasts. Lower temperature and coarser grind prevent bitterness. The Air's open airflow design ensures quick drawdown even with the faster-extracting dark roast.

Notes

Dark roasts need gentler treatment. The 88°C water and coarse grind prevent harsh bitter extraction. The Origami Air's fast drawdown works well here — the shorter contact time matches the high solubility of dark roasts. Two simple pours.
