Why this recipe

Ethiopia Kercha Natural · Cat & Cloud
Extraction Strategy
Body first

This bean's sweetness lives in its texture, so weight and sweetness are chosen before clarity. It is a dense bean, slow to give up flavour, so it is set to draw out its sweetness.

The Decisions
Grind · 57
Medium-coarse grind
Coarse sea salt. Naturals give up flavour fast, so it's set coarser; the dense bean pulls it back a little finer.
Dial in your grinder
Temp · 88°C
One steady heat
88° for every pour. Holding it level keeps every pour extracting at the same pace.
Bloom · 40s
Medium bloom
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.
Pour Structure · 3 pours
Bloom and two pours
More of the water goes in early, while flavour comes out fastest. Fewer, larger pours stir the bed more, for a heavier cup.
70 RPM · SPIRAL · 3.3 ML/S
A slower spin lands the water softly, keeping harsh notes out of the cup. Spiral pours reach the edges and stir the whole bed.
