Slow Drawdown

Swiss Gold Misc pourover by Mark Burness

Mark Burness's answer to the KF300's tight headspace: lift the dispersion insert briefly during the pour to wet the whole bed at once, then let the regulator finish the job slowly.

    Drawdown complete around 2:30 to 3:30.

Notes

The KF300 has little room between the dispersion insert and the bed, so the bloom can leave dry pockets. Lifting the insert for a second mid-pour gets water on every grain before the regulator takes over. Water should be just off the boil — the long contact time wants the extra heat. Drawdown lands between 2:30 and 3:30. Grind coarser if it stalls.
