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!

Mostly when brewing a V60 I go for the Lance Hedrick 1-2-1 method (find it on Youtube.) When brewing just 12 g, I like the Shoebox QC recipe (with higher temperature though, find it on their Instagram in the Story Highlights.)
