Why this recipe
Weessi Tima Honey · Scenery
Grind 51 · 93 °C · 40 s · 3:30–4:30
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
Coarse sea salt. Honey-process sugars give up flavour fast, so it's set coarser; the dense bean pulls it back a little finer.
Dial in your grinder →93 °C to start, then 91 °C, 89 °C and 88 °C. Hotter turns honey sweetness heavy, so 93 °C is its limit.
45 ml of water, then a 40-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 → 145 → 180 → 205 → 225 ml
Circular pours wet the flat bed evenly.
