Manual Pour over
"The ritual of the pour over is like a meditation"
What you'll need
- Pour Over Coffee Dripper
- Pour Over Coffee Filters
- Kettle (gooseneck = bonus points)
- Grinder
- Digital Scale
- Timer (your phone works!)
- 15g Freshly Roasted Tiny Tiger Beans
Brew Time
2 ½ to 3 minutes
The MAGIC Ratio
15g Coffee : 250g Water
The Method
-
Boil & Chill
Heat your water till it’s just off the boil – think 92–96°C. Not lava, not lukewarm. Just right.
-
Filter
Prep Pop in your coffee filter, rinse it with hot water to wash away any papery flavours and warm your gear. Toss that rinse water.
-
Grind
Weigh 15g of freshly roasted Tiny Tiger Coffee Beans and grind them medium-fine, not sure what medium fine looks like? Think about the texture of crushed sugar crystals.
-
BLOOM your Coffee
Start the timer. Pour 40–50g of water to wake up your coffee. Watch as your coffee slowly releases the CO2 that’s trapped inside during the roasting process. It’s alive! Wait for 30 seconds.
-
Pour with Purpose
Pour your hot water into the dripper in slow, steady circles. Keep it calm. Reach 250g of water by the 2-minute mark.
-
Let It Drip
For the next minute, let gravity do its thing. And after gravity is done working? Smooth, sweet, and bright coffee, just like your day ahead!
