Golden Hour Pour Over

Steps

1. Heat water to 200°F and rinse your filter with hot water
2. Grind coffee to medium-fine consistency (like table salt)
3. Add coffee to filter and create a small well in the center
4. Bloom: Pour 50ml water in circular motion, wait 30 seconds
5. First pour: Slowly add 150ml water in steady spiral (30-60 seconds)
6. Second pour: Add remaining 150ml water in center, let drain
7. Total brew time should be 4-5 minutes
8. Serve immediately for best flavor

Pro Tips

• Consistency is key: Use the same pouring speed each time
• Watch the bloom: Good coffee will puff up significantly
• Don't rush: Let each pour settle before adding more water
• Taste and adjust: If too bitter, use cooler water or coarser grind
• Fresh is best: Use beans roasted within 2-4 weeks
