Why this recipe
Decaf El Vergel Watermelon Co-Ferment · EQUATOR COFFEES
Grind 51 · 90 °C · 30 s · 3:00–4:00
Calculated by BrewMind's AI from this bean's altitude, process and roast, then checked against physical limits before you saw it.
Fruit and floral aromas fade when pushed too hard, so the recipe is set to keep them. Its density is typical, so nothing is corrected for it.
The decisions
Coarse sea salt. Nothing about this bean calls for a change, so the grind follows the roast.
Dial in your grinder →90 °C to start, then 87 °C and 85 °C. Hotter turns this bean harsh, so 90 °C is its limit.
40 ml of water, then a 30-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 → 150 → 225 ml
Circular pours wet the flat bed evenly.
