James Hoffmann's Ultimate V60 Technique (30g/500g)

PercolationCone

James Hoffmann's own V60 technique: 30g coffee to 500g water. Bloom with twice the dose (60g) and swirl, pour to 300g by 1:15 and to 500g by 1:45, stir once each way to knock coffee off the walls, then swirl for a flat bed. Aim to finish around 3:30.
