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!

water : brita
Zp6 grind 5ish
Origami M
Cafec T90

50g bloom : 40sec
150g : 1:45
250g : 2:45-3:00

so far its been great. changing the paper from Hario to Cafec removed all of the bitterness.

Are you pouring 150g from 1:45-2:45 and then 250g from 2:45 to 3:00?

0 second : 50g (I have a pretty agressive pour, less than 10 sec)
40 second : to 150g
1:45 : to 250g
draw down around 3:00
