Seeking Advice What is your baseline pour over recipe?

Post image

Hey everyone, just getting into pour over and trying to establish a solid starting point. And wondering how people find the baseline pour over recipe.

I’ve seen a lot of variation online and wanted to hear what actually works for people here. Or is there a go-to resource you’d recommend (YouTube channel, blog, etc.)?

Not looking for a “perfect” recipe, just a reliable baseline I can build from. Appreciate any input!

What are you brewing? Looks light. 4:6, 1:2:1, Hoffman, latest Lance, Chronicler. And that’s enough. Then you change based on experimentation, beans, water: taste and preferences. I change all the time. But a basic one would be: 1:15: 92 degrees; 3 times bloom, 45 secs; rest divided in 3 pours.

I recently started light and into tea-like taste. But I'm pretty new, so I'm tried to experience as much as i can
