Grind 64 · 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 dense bean, slow to give up flavour, so it is set to draw out its sweetness.
The decisions
Rock salt. Naturals give up flavour fast, so it's set coarser; the dense bean pulls it back a little finer.
Dial in your grinder →92 °C to start, then 90 °C and 89 °C. Hotter turns a natural's fruit harsh, so 92 °C is its limit.
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 → 95 → 145 → 190 → 225 ml
Spiral pours reach the edges and stir the whole bed.
