Why this recipe

Organic Guatemala · Kirkland Signature
Extraction Strategy
Body first

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
Grind · 53
Medium-coarse grind
Coarse sea salt. Nothing about this bean calls for a change, so the grind follows the roast.
Dial in your grinder
Temp · 89→88°C
A small step down
89° for the bloom, 88° after. Heat opens the grounds early; stepping down keeps the finish sweet, not bitter.
Bloom · 41s
Medium bloom
40 ml of water, then a 41-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 · 3.2 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.
