V60 recipes - And general Pour Over methods

 Here’s a quick and general V60 coffee ratio table of some bean-and-water-volumes (all these match a 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio, but you can vary this to suit your taste.):

Grams of coffee Grams (or mL) of water
10                         160
12                         192
14                     224
16                     256
18                     288
20                     320

The James Hoffman method:

 
INGREDIENTS:
15g ground coffee
250g soft, filtered water.
Bring water to boil.
Final Temp: 93-95C - adjust water temp for roast level. (lighter roasts may need hotter water). 
Grind: medium-fine.... like salt
Use a plastic V-60 as its better for heat retention.
Preheat under tap hot water.
Make a depression in the middle of the coffee. This is where you start your pour.

We are pouring in 50g steps.
The first pour takes 45s. 
Following this: 10s pour, 10s wait, 10s pour, 10sec wait, etc
Expect a 3 min brew.
STEPS:
- 0m00s: Start your timer and pour 50g of water to bloom
- 0m10s - 0m15s: Gently Swirl
- 0m00s - 0m45s: Bloom
- 0m45s - 1m00s: Pour up to 100g total (40% total weight)
- 1m00s - 1m10s: Pause
- 1m10s - 1m20s: Pour up to 150g total (60% total weight)
- 1m20s - 1m30s: Pause
- 1m30s - 1m40s: Pour up to 200g total (80% total weight)
- 1m40s - 1m50s: Pause
- 1m50s - 2m00s: Pour up to 250g total (100% total weight)
- 2m00s - 2m05s: 
 Gently swirl the brewer
- Drawdown should finish around 3:00, but expect some variance here. 
Taste is the most important thing!
----------------------

NOMA method
(Its a great recipe for a big crowd of people)
65g coffee
1000g H20
Temp - just off the boil.
Grinder: Comandante c40 (25-30 clicks).
Level grind.
Wet the paper filter first & preheat the V60

Expect a 3.50  to 4 m brew.

STEPS:
  1st stage.
- 0m00s: Start your timer and pour 120g of water  in circular motion.
  Make sure you get all grinds wet in this first pour.
  (avoid contact with filter sides)
- 0m10s - 0m15s: Give a Gentle Swirl/stir
- 0m15 - 0m30 : pour up to 250g
2nd stage.
- 0m30s - 0m40s: Bloom
- 0m55s - 1m00s: Pour up to 400g total 
3rd stage (100g every 30sec)
- 1m00s - 1m30s: be at 500g
- 1m31s - 2m00s: Pour up to 600g total 
- 2m:30 : 700g
- 3m:00 : 800g
- 3m:25 : 900g
- 3m:50 : 1000g

 Gently swirl or stir the brewer before serving 
- Drawdown should finish around 3: to 4 mins
More time or a finer grind size should extract more sweetness.
Or experiment with grind size

Temp 97C water.
preheat the brewer.
Timemore C2: 14-20 clicks (720 microns) or 24 clicks on a C40
12 to 13 on a baratza Encore
15- 20g ground coffee
340g water
Total draw time is 3:10
Ratio is 1:17
Use a chopstick to make a depression in centre of grounds

Pour every 30 sec
There are 4 pours in total.

Method
First pour:
50g h20 & spin.
 you should see the bloom

2nd pour:
50g water, spin
you should see the 2nd bloom

3rd pour
120g water, spin

4th pour
120g, spin

We will finish the pours after 1.40 , but the water will still be exiting
the brewer ... typically the ave total brew time will be 2.30 to 3.30mins
(you could beak up the last two pours into 3 pours). This will increase extraction.

** OREA V4 WINNING RECIPE by Martin Woelfl **

Coffee: 17g at 490 microns (21-25clicks on Comandante C40)
Water: 270ml at 93C
Brewer: OREA V4 with fast bottom

4 STEPS POURING:
Pour 1:  60ml at 0s (blooming)
Pour 2:  60ml at 40s
Pour 3:  50ml at 80s
Pour 4:  100ml at 120s
Total brew time: 2:20 - 2:25 (140-145s)

----------------------------------------------

Coffee:10g 
Water:150ml
Temprature:96
Grind size:15-16 clicks on comandante 
30-35ml bloom wait 40-45sec
165-170ml pour slowly
Gentle swirl!
Total brew time:2min30sec to 3min depends on coffee and process
 (double fermentation coffees take more time.
I've had great results even with times longer than 3 min!)

----------------------------
Brewer:  Cafec Deep 27
Ratio:  1:16 coffee-to-water ratio
        (15g dose of coffee and 240g of water for example)
        or
        (10g of coffee and 160g of water)
Grind:  medium-fine grind, similar to sand or slightly finer than sea salt.
        If the coffee is too bitter, coarsen the grind. If it's too sour, try a finer grind. 
Steps: 
Heat your water to around 200-205°F (93-96°C). 
Bloom: Start by pouring about twice the weight of your coffee grounds in water over the grounds. 
       For example, if you're using 10g of coffee, use 20g of water.
Bloom Time: Let the coffee bloom for about 30 seconds, allowing it to release CO2. 
Total Brew Time: around 2 minutes.

---------------------------------------------------------
Brewer:  Cafec Deep 27
Brian Quan's 6g dose
Temp: 95
Grind: Fine
50g bloom
Final: 100g water (about 83g in cup)
Total time: 2 mins

The brewer's unique design allows for fast flow rates and high extraction yields, even with such a small amount of coffee. Because the brewer has very steep walls the water flow is really fast.

  1. I recently had RNA Heating round to look at my gas boiler, and I can't recommend them enough. If anyone’s looking for gas boilers services in Kidderminster, they’re a solid choice. The engineer turned up on time, explained everything clearly and got my heating sorted in no time. It's great to find a local company that really cares about doing a good job. I’ll definitely be using them again when I need a service or repair in the future. Really happy with how smooth the whole process was.
