Pour Over Coffee Amount. Pour about twice the amount of water to coffee and stir gently. The recommended caffeine intake is about 400 milligrams per day translating to roughly four cups of coffee.
If your cup fills in less than 2 minutes or if it tastes weak adjust the grinder to produce finer grind particle sizes. When you stop adding water your dripper will continue to drip for between 20 and 60 seconds. While you can brew up to a 12 oz cup we generally recommend brewing 10 oz of coffee for optimal flavor.
Begin pouring water slowly over the coffee starting at the outer rim and moving in a steady spiral toward the center of the grounds.
Each brewer is designed to brew a certain range. For example Chemex coffee makers are designed to brew either 1-3 cups or 3-6 cups. You bloom for 30 seconds finish pouring by 130 and finish draining at 150. Your target total brew time is about 25 to 3 minutes for dark roasted coffee and 3 to 4 minutes for medium to light roasted coffees.
