Why this recipe
Casi Cielo · Starbucks
Grind 51 · 92 °C · 32 s · 2:30–3:30
Calculated by BrewMind's AI from this bean's altitude, process and roast, then checked against physical limits before you saw it.
No single note leads this bean, so the cup is kept sweet and even. It is a very soft bean that gives up flavour fast, so the recipe stays gentle to avoid bitterness.
The decisions
Coarse sea salt. Soft beans give up flavour fast, so it's set much coarser.
Dial in your grinder →92 °C for the bloom, 88 °C after. Heat opens the grounds early; stepping down keeps the finish sweet, not bitter.
40 ml of water, then a 32-second wait. A short wait is enough before the next pour.
More of the water goes in early, while flavour comes out fastest. Fewer, larger pours stir the bed more, for a heavier cup.
40 → 140 → 225 ml
Circular pours wet the flat bed evenly.
