The Manual Pour Over
Pour Over Wrap Up
With Sensei Joe
The manual pour over will be a major guide for the home barista to learn what properly brewed coffee tastes like. This is as a result of the straight forward nature of the steps required to produce this coffee. It all comes down to the length of time required for the brew, if it brews too fast resulting in under extracted sour tasting coffee you will need to go a bit finer with the grind. Likewise if the brew timing goes beyond the allotted 3 minutes and 30 seconds, next time you should adjust the grind a bit more course to avoid the bitter taste of over extracted coffee.
Because properly extracted coffee can be easily honed in with this method of brewing, you have a base for comparing different brew methods. You will also be able to “learn” what over and under extraction tastes like and train your pallet to recognize the 3 distinct tastes all coffee will produce.
