Main ingredients

Optional add-ins

Method

Brewing steps

  1. 1

    Set up and prepare

    Place a paper filter in a pour-over dripper and rinse with hot water to remove paper taste and preheat the dripper.

  2. 2

    Add coffee grounds

    Add 2 tablespoons (about 10 g) of coarsely ground coffee into the filter and level the bed.

  3. 3

    Bloom the coffee

    Pour 40 ml of hot water (92-96°C) over the grounds to saturate them. Let the coffee bloom for 30–45 seconds.

  4. 4

    Brew the rest

    Slowly pour the remaining 200 ml of hot water in a steady circular motion, keeping the water level between the dripper rim and the coffee bed until drained.

  5. 5

    Finish and serve

    Remove the dripper, pour the coffee into a cup, and give it a gentle stir to mix any settled oils.

  6. 6

    Optional add-ins: sugar

    If desired, stir in 1 teaspoon sugar until dissolved.

  7. 7

    Optional add-ins: milk

    If desired, add about 60 ml milk or dairy-free milk to taste.
