Why this recipe
Elevator Candelaria · Elevator
Grind 47 · 96 °C · 40 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.
This bean's sweetness lives in its texture, so weight and sweetness are chosen before clarity. Its density is typical, so nothing is corrected for it.
The decisions
Granulated sugar. Nothing about this bean calls for a change, so the grind follows the roast.
Dial in your grinder →96 °C for the bloom, 93 °C after. Heat opens the grounds early; stepping down keeps the finish sweet, not bitter.
40 ml of water, then a 40-second wait. Escaping gas pushes water away; waiting it out lets the pours that follow soak in evenly.
More of the water goes in early, while flavour comes out fastest. Fewer, larger pours stir the bed more, for a heavier cup.
40 → 135 → 225 ml
Spiral pours reach the edges and stir the whole bed.
