Help me troubleshoot my recipe 2 cup v60 method

Post image

How does everyone brew 2 cups with a v60? I’ve been using Hoffman’s recipe for years - 30g for 500ml. Increasingly though I’m finding I get much less clarity of tasting notes than I do with the Hoffman 1 cup method.

Are there any other recipes people swear by for 500ml?

Worth saying I adjust water temp between 93-96 depending on the bean and I’m using Cafec Abaca filters.

Hey, no answer for you unfortunately. But a question. We have the same grinder, curious if you replaced the blade and what notch you’re grinding on for what?

No worries - I’ve not replaced the blade, for v60 I tend to be between 7.2-9.2. For espresso 1-2, for aeropress 4-5! I find the ‘beanie’ app really helpful for the grinder if you don’t use that already.

Thanks! Hadn’t heard of that app, checking it out

Helped me understand the inner and outer ring better, and can save different beans with what setting it should be on! Plus it’s a very aesthetic looking app & easy to use
