minimum dose size?

Jan 31, 2024 |

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...

Pourover extraction temperature: If you had to accept a gradient, what direction is better?

A little coffee making puzzle I was trying to figure out. If you are making a V60 pourover with a fairly light roast (pick your recipe of choice). Saddly you cannot get water at your target temperature (say 202 F). Your water will either start warmer and get colder, or start colder or end warmer. Which would you prefer?

I.e. if your recipe calls for 202 F, would you prefer to start pouring at 207 F with your final pour at 197 F or vice versa?

Obviously this is a bit silly, but I'm curious if there is a right answer. My inclination is to start colder and end warmer to prolong the extract, but I can imagine that it's better to start extra hot (since the grinds are cold).
