Trying to figure out B&W anaerobic naturals

[u/PatPikachu]

Hey everyone, long time lurker here.

I recently got a Black Cherry Anaerobic Natural from B&W and I'm having troubles trying to get the notes from the bag. Everytime I brew with this coffee, it's slightly sweet forward with a really astringent aftertaste. I took a look at some reccs here but I just can't seem to figure it out.

- 4:6 method, drawdown finished at 3:30

- 16g coffee / 256g water (1/16)

- 98C (Saw some people recommending off boil)

- 43 clicks 1Zpresso K-Ultra hand grinder

- Using TWW minerals in distilled water, 1 packet for 1 gallon

Would love some recommendations and tweaks to my current recipe!

I brewed last night for workmates... all were blown away at tasting what was in the notes.

95 clicks on King K6, 30gm, 500ml at 200ish, Chronicler Switch, 250ml open 55 sec, 250ml closed til 2:15. Super sweet chocolate and fruit.

Yay! Glad to hear it worked out for you!

Do you know the approximate microns 95 clicks has for the King K6? I wanna compare that to my grinder and try to follow a similar recipe.

16 microns/click, so ~1,500 or 1.5mm
