THE PROCESS6 SIMPLE STEPS
01

Heat your water

Bring filtered water to a boil, then let it settle to 93–96°C.

02

Rinse the filter

Place the paper filter in your V60 and rinse with hot water. Discard the rinse water.

03

Grind & dose

Grind 15g of coffee to a medium-fine texture and level the coffee bed.

04

Let it bloom

Pour 30–45ml of water evenly over the grounds. Wait 30–45 seconds.

05

Pour in stages

Continue with slow, steady circles until you reach 250ml total water.

06

Enjoy the result

A total drawdown around 3:00–3:30 is a useful starting target. Taste and adjust.

✳ PRO TIP

Swirl gently after the bloom to help create an even coffee bed.

! TROUBLESHOOT

If the brew runs too fast, try a finer grind. If it runs too slowly, try coarser.
