A Brewing Guide to Pour-Over Coffee

1. Fold your paper filter along the seam and into a cone. Put the cone in your V60 (this should already be placed on top of a cup or jug).
2. Rinse the filter by pouring hot water through it and into the cup (then tip out the excess water).
3. Place your coffee in the cone and gently shake flat.
4. Put your V60 and cup (or jug) on the scale (if you have a measuring scale on your jug then scales are not necessary.
5. Start the timer. Pour in 50g of water, covering all the coffee, making it bloom.
6. After 30 seconds pour in 100g of water. Pour in concentric circles, into the coffee itself (not the sides of the filter paper!).
7. After 60 seconds, pour in 50g more water.
8. At 90 seconds, add another 50g.
9. All your water (250g of it) should be in by the 90-second mark. Now, let it drip until finished.
10. Your brew should be done within 2-3 minutes.
11. If it’s taking longer than expected, coarsen the grind next time. If it’s running short, go a little finer.
