Stage 1

The Bloom

50g

0:00 – 0:10

Achieve uniform saturation of all grounds, ensuring no dry spots. Pour in slow circles. This initiates degasification for even extraction.

Stage 2

First Main Pour

144g

~1:00 – ~1:10

Execute a controlled, deliberate pour into the centre of the coffee bed. Maintain a gentle, consistent flow to minimise agitation.

Stage 3

Final Pour

300g

~2:00 – ~2:20

Continue the centre pour with consistent flow, bringing the total scale reading to 300g. Focus on maintaining a calm coffee bed.

Stage 4

The Draw Down

Observe Flow

~2:20 – ~3:15

Allow the remaining water to fully drain through the coffee bed. A consistent, uninterrupted flow indicates optimal extraction. Do not disturb the bed.
