The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

I've been using the the osmotic flow / slow method, but I'm interested to see what other people like.

Currently I love the James Hoffmann's 1 cup V60 using 15g/250ml ratio.

I generally don't like to overcomplicate things and keep it pretty simple. When not at home brewing just for myself my go-to method is 30g/500ml with ~50ml water 30s blooming (45s for Chemex) then pour the rest and gently swirl after a bit.

I've been using a v60 over the chemex, and I "went back to basics" and looked up Hoffman's method. I hadn't realized how "off" my coffee was. Not a drastic change, but a noticeable improvement. Like Dessalines mentioned, its a bit stronger for me, too. But I just need to tweak the ratio.

It's a good, simple method.
