A basic method for brewing drip coffee using a pour-over brewer or Chemex. Medium- to fine-grind coffee is bloomed with hot water and then slowly saturated to produce a clean, flavorful cup.

Ingredients

Servings:
  • About 2 tablespoons (⅜ ounce or 12 grams) medium- to fine-grind coffee for every ¾ cup (6 ounces) water

Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Place in a drip filter: About 2 tablespoons (⅜ ounce or 12 grams) medium- to fine-grind coffee for every ¾ cup (6 ounces) water

  2. Step 2.

    Bring the water to a boil, then remove it from the heat and wait about 30 seconds for the water to cool to 200° to 205°F. Slowly pour just enough water over the ground coffee to moisten it thoroughly. Wait another 30 seconds or so, allowing the coffee to “bloom,” and gradually pour in the water, making sure all of the grounds stay saturated throughout brewing. When the drip process is complete, serve coffee at once or keep warm in a thermal carafe.
