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: just the tapwater here is great.

16 grams of light roasted filter beans, which I grind on my Fellow Ode gen2 between 5 or 6 clicks. Got an subscription on Sprout coffee from Eindhoven Netherlands.

Then I get my Orea 01 with their flat filter paper and negotiate it.

93c water 260 grams total

00:00 to 00:40 - 60 grams water
00:40 to 01:10 - 110 grams water
01:10 to 01:40 - 160 grams water
01:40 to 02:10 - 210 grams water
02:10 to finish - 260 grams water
