Sermon from Verve

Verve · Colombia Washed / Ethiopia Natural - Medium · ★★★★☆

Grind: #21 pour over, #15 espresso · Water: 201-203°F · Ratio: 1:16, 40g to 640g

Roast is medium so temp is cooler. 205-207 would be lighter roast. 195 for a dark roast.

Bloom 80g with gentle swirl. Medium won't bubble as much as a light.

  • First pour to 380g
  • 1:45 pour to 640g
  • Give it a swirl to flatten the bed
  • Target 4:15 to 4:45

Too thin then grind finer. Too muddy go to 22.

15 espresso pulled 38g in 28 seconds. I could go finer to bring the seconds up and the ratio in grams.
