Pour Over:

 

The Essentials

Before you embark on your coffee brewing adventure, gather your tools and ingredients.
Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Fresh water (the cleaner, the better!)

  • Fresh coffee beans (of course Hoasties Coffee lol)

  • Pour over device

  • Coffee filter (make sure it fits your pour over)

  • Gooseneck kettle (for precise pouring)

  • Coffee grinder (freshly ground or Hoasties ground coffee)


The Perfect Measurements

For a delightful cup of coffee, we recommend a ratio of 2 tablespoons of coffee for every 6 ounces of water.

Feeling adventurous? Adjust the amount to suit your taste!


Brewing Steps to Coffee Bliss

  1. Boil That Water!
    Start by boiling fresh, cold water. Once it bubbles away, let it rest for about 30 seconds to cool slightly.

  2. Filter Time!
    Place your coffee filter in the pour over device. This is where the magic happens!

  3. Dampen the Filter
    Rinse the filter with hot water to make it stick and preheat your brewer. Nobody likes lukewarm coffee!

  4. Grind Those Beans
    Grind your fresh beans to a medium-coarse consistency—think rough sand or sea salt.

  5. Add Grounds with Love
    Pour the ground coffee into the filter, creating a little dip in the center. This helps the water pool nicely.

  6. Let It Bloom
    Gently pour about 100ml of hot water over the grounds and let them bloom for 30 seconds. Watch those bubbles rise as CO₂ escapes!

  7. The Slow Pour
    Now, take it easy! Slowly pour in the remaining water in increments of 100ml, using a circular motion to keep things even.

  8. Chill While It Drips
    Let the coffee drip down into your mug or carafe. This is where patience pays off!

  9. Remove the Filter
    Once all the water has dripped through, carefully remove the filter—it's hot, so watch out for those pesky grounds!

  10. Swirl It Up
    Give your freshly brewed coffee a little swirl to mix everything together beautifully.

  11. Serve & Savor
    Pour yourself a cup, take a sip, and enjoy every drop of your creation.

  12. Share & Repeat!
    Coffee is better when shared! Brew another batch and spread the joy.


Tips for Success

  • Go Slow: Controlled pours from a gooseneck kettle help achieve that perfect extraction.

  • Avoid Splashing: Keep your pouring focused on the grounds to prevent watery coffee.

  • Experiment: Adjust your grind size and brew time to find your ideal flavor profile.
