Grind 36 · 95 °C · 50 s · 3:20–4:20
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. It is a dense bean, slow to give up flavour, so it is set to draw out its sweetness.
The decisions
Fine table salt. Dense beans give up flavour slowly, so it's set a little finer.
Dial in your grinder →95 °C for the bloom, 93 °C after. Heat opens the grounds early; stepping down keeps the finish sweet, not bitter.
45 ml of water, then a 50-second wait. Escaping gas pushes water away; waiting it out lets the pours that follow soak in evenly.
The Wave's flat bed needs one more pour to wet evenly. More, smaller pours stir the bed gently, for a cleaner, lighter cup.
45 → 100 → 150 → 190 → 225 ml
Circular pours wet the flat bed evenly.
