Ratio
1:15 (20g coffee : 300g water)
Grind
Medium-fine — ~18-22 clicks on 1Zpresso J (similar to fine sea salt / table salt)
Grind Adjustment

if sour: grind finer by 2-3 clicks, raise water temp 1-2°C, or increase steep by 15-30s; if bitter: grind coarser by 2-3 clicks, lower temp 1-2°C, or shorten steep/open earlier

Brewing Steps
  1. 1. Bloom with 40g water for 30 seconds
  2. 2. Pour to 300g total by 1:00 (slow, steady concentric pours); give 1-2 gentle stirs and close the switch
  3. 3. After closing, steep until 2:00 total then open the valve to drain; optionally pour an extra 40g over the bed after initial drain for added clarity and let finish draining (~20-30s)
  4. 4. Total time ~2:30-3:00. Serve immediately (yields ~300g brewed coffee).
Pro Tips
  • 💡 Use gentle stirring during bloom and minimal agitation afterwards to preserve lemon/lime brightness and chocolate/dark-spice balance
  • 💡 Key factor: dial in grind consistency and adhere to bloom and steep timing to balance the winey acidity with chocolate and spice notes
Troubleshooting

Sour → grind finer by 2-3 clicks, increase water temp 1-2°C, or lengthen steep by 15-30s. Bitter → grind coarser by 2-3 clicks, lower water temp 1-2°C, shorten steep/open valve sooner, and reduce agitation.
