FrontStreet Coffee's Pour-over Geisha Coffee Method: Three-Stage Pouring

Three-Stage Pouring Method

Segmented extraction, dividing one portion of water into three stages for pouring

Suitable for light roast, medium-light roast, and medium roast coffee beans

Uses Kalita wave filter

Increase bloom time or number of pour breaks to enhance coffee flavor intensity

Three-Stage Pouring Segmented Extraction Method

Advantages: Richer layers than single continuous pour, can clearly distinguish the front, middle, and back end flavors of coffee. The method involves increasing water volume after each bloom, typically pouring when coffee liquid is about to drop to the powder bed surface, using small, medium, and large water flows for three-stage extraction.

Disadvantages: Higher requirements for water flow rate and volume.

FrontStreet Coffee's Geisha Coffee Pour-over Parameter Recommendations

The wave filter uses immersion extraction, increasing the contact surface area between coffee grounds and water. Compared to V60 brewing, it can enhance texture, making it taste more viscous.

15g of coffee, water temperature 91-92°C, grind BG 5R (China standard 64% pass-through rate for #20 sieve), water-to-coffee ratio close to 1:15-16

Method: 27g water for bloom, bloom time is 30s. Pour hot water from the pour-over kettle in clockwise circles centered on the middle of the filter. Start timing when brewing begins, pour to 27g then stop pouring, wait 30 seconds for the first pour.

During the first pour, circle as before, slightly slower speed. When reaching the outer circle, increase speed slightly. Stop pouring around 1:15 seconds. When the liquid level drops by 1/3, pour again. The second pour should concentrate in the center, avoiding water flow hitting the connection between coffee grounds and filter paper to prevent channeling effects. End extraction around 2:05 seconds. The tail section can be omitted (the longer the time, the more astringency and rough texture will increase).

Segments: 30-125-230g
