WHAT YOU WILL NEED
Kalita Wave 185 Brewer
Kalita Wave 185 Filter
Grinder
24.5g of coffee
Hot Water off boil
Scale
Timer
Mug or Decanter
STEP 1:
Place the filter in the Kalita & place on a server.
STEP 2:
Use hot water from your kettle to rinse the filter! This helps eliminate paper taste & helps keep the dripper & decanter warm.
STEP 3:
Measure the Coffee & Grind
We use a 15.5:1 ratio. Meaning we use 15.5g of water to 1g of coffee.
Measure 24.5g of coffee & grind to the desired fineness.
Check out our grind adjustment page to dial in the grind.
Place the coffee in the dripper & shake the dripper to ensure the coffee bed is flat
STEP 4:
Bloom or saturate the grounds
Start your timer & pour 75g of coffee over the course of 15 sec. Ensure to saturate all coffee grounds in a circular motion
STEP 5:
Pouring will be split into 4 separate pours of 75g of water each pouring over 15 seconds.
In between the wait time will be 15 seconds. Start each pour gently in the middle & slowly in a circular motion to the outside walls of the brewer.
STEP 6:
The last pour will go all the way up to 380g. After pouring, take the coffee brewer & make 2 small circles with it then place it back on the server & wait to drip out.
SERVE & ENJOY
This Recipe will yield roughly 340g of coffee, or 12oz.
