Why this recipe
Kerinci Honey Velvet · Koro
Grind 54 · 92 °C · 39 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.
This bean's sweetness lives in its texture, so weight and sweetness are chosen before clarity. It is a soft bean that gives up flavour fast, so the recipe stays gentle to avoid bitterness.
The decisions
Coarse sea salt. Honey-process sugars give up flavour fast, so it's set coarser, and the soft bean takes it coarser still.
Dial in your grinder →92 °C to start, then 91 °C, 89 °C and 88 °C. Heat opens the grounds early; stepping down keeps the finish sweet, not bitter.
40 ml of water, then a 39-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. More, smaller pours stir the bed gently, for a cleaner, lighter cup.
40 → 90 → 140 → 185 → 225 ml
Spiral pours reach the edges and stir the whole bed.
