Single Pour with Swirl

Timemore Crystal Eye Timemore by Basic Barista

Basic Barista's method for the Crystal Eye size 02 uses a swirled bloom followed by one continuous pour. It combines simple handling with the cone's spiral ribs to promote full saturation and an even extraction, targeting a sweet, balanced cup.

Notes

Swirl only enough to wet the bloom uniformly, then let the continuous pour provide the remaining agitation. Keep water away from the upper paper and hold a stable slurry level; adjust grind if drawdown misses the desired pace.
