Ingredients

☕️ 50 grams Blue Bottle Coffee Single Origin
💧 700 grams water heated to between 205-210°F

Instructions

1- Heat Water:

• Use the Fellow Stagg EKG Electric Kettle to heat a full kettle of water to between 205-210°F.

2- Prepare Chemex:

• Place a Chemex Bonded Filter into the Chemex, ensuring the tri-fold portion faces the pouring spout to avoid clogging.
• Rinse the filter thoroughly with hot water to remove any papery taste and to preheat the Chemex carafe, then pour out the rinse water.

3- Grind Coffee:

• Grind 50 grams of Blue Bottle coffee with the Fellow Ode Brew Grinder to a medium-coarse consistency, similar to sea salt.

4- Prep and Tare Scale:

• Add the ground coffee to the Chemex, leveling it with a gentle shake.
• Place the Chemex on the Acaia Pearl S Scale and tare it to zero.

5- First Pour (Bloom):

• Start the timer and begin the bloom pour by saturating the coffee grounds with 100 grams of water.
• Pour in a spiral pattern from the center outward. Allow blooming to proceed for 45 seconds.

6- Second Pour:

• At the 45-second mark, add water in a circular pattern, avoiding the filter, until the scale reads 300 grams of water.

7- Third Pour:

• At 1 minute 50 seconds, continue pouring in the same pattern until you reach 500 grams of water. Allow the water to filter through before the next pour.

8- Fourth Pour:

• At 3 minutes 10 seconds, perform the final pour to reach a total of 700 grams of water.

9- Finish Brewing:

• Let the brewing complete, typically taking 4 minutes, but it can extend up to 7 minutes for lighter roasts.
• Once filtering ends, remove and discard the filter.

10- Serve:
- Pour the freshly brewed coffee into a clear glass mug and enjoy.
