Preparation steps
01 • Set inverted position and rinse filter
0:00Position plunger inside chamber at the mark 4 circle. Rinse paper micro-filter with hot water in the cap to remove pulp notes.

02 • Add ground coffee and rapid pour
0:20Add 14 g of medium grind coffee. Pour 200 g of 88 °C water briskly to ensure immediate, complete saturation of the coffee bed.
Observations and deviations: to be logged in lab trial.
03 • Gently agitate and steep
1:30Stir 3 times with the paddle to achieve uniform extraction. Screw on the filter cap and let steep until 1:30 on the timer.

Laboratory recommendations
- Moderate water temperature (88 °C) preserves delicate sweetness and inhibits bitter astringency.
- Stopping at the first hiss prevents over-extracting fine fines into the cup.
