Energy has been low lately and even cleaning the Aeropress or the Moka pot has become a drag.
I remembered I still had that old v60 which is a joy for clean-up, and found a recipe that used swirling to compensate for my kettle’s terrible pour.
Forgot how great a simple pour-over can be.
Recipe:
15 g coffee to 250 g water, at 95 degrees celsius.
-
00:00-00:45 dump in 50 g water fast, swirl, and let it bloom.
-
00.45-01:15 pump in the remaining 200 g moderately fast and end with a single good swirl.
-
Aim for 2:15-2:45 drain time.
Taste was a little less clear than the Aeropress or Moka Pot, but with good depth and pleasant amount of grit. Very much its own thing that’s the best when it’s just what you want.
What’s your brew today?
Edit: Lavazzo Decaf beans cause it’s after midnight and medium-fine grind, two clicks into 'Aeropress" on the Wilfa Svart.
Ahh you’re right, fixed.
Sounds amazing, what’s the name of the grinder?
I recently started doing my Moka Pot with cold / room temp water depending on what’s in the fridge, and it became a lot more clear than I did it with higher temps or boiling. Apparently they discovered that the moka pot wasn’t actually brewing because of steam as previously thought.
It’s the Mazzer Phillos, a single dose grinder.
Hm, I never thought of buying Decaf beans, and I only drink coffe in the morning, but I should look into it especially once the machine will arrive I might want to make more than one coffe a day :D
Yep, it’s pretty great! And they have the same massive health benefits you get from coffee with caffeine.
