I use the Hario switch to brew my coffee and am trying to reduce my caffeine consumption. Hence I would like to brew smaller cups of coffee. I am currently using 10g of coffee with 160g of water. (1:16 Ratio) I am wondering if there is a minimum amount of coffee...

Chemex help

hi, I just made my first cup of coffee with my Chemex. I used a light roasted blend about one month from roast date. I used approximately 60 clicks on my 1zpresso Q2 and 24.5g of beans at a ratio of 1:15 or 1:18 with water from my Electric kettle poured to my Hario air drip kettle and then poured on the coffee. The coffee I got was bitter with a tinge of sourness towards the end of the cup. I would like some feedback as well as any recipes or Youtube links that you could recommend. I am in the process of getting a Brewista temperature controlled kettle. I would like to improve my technique before then.

​

Thank You.
