FrontStreet Coffee Colombia Huilan Pink Bourbon Washed Brewing Guide

Region: Huilan

Altitude: 1700m

Variety: Pink Bourbon

Processing Method: Washed

Dry Aroma: Ginger flower aroma, with strong ginger scent after grinding

Wet Aroma: Prominent sweet orange aroma

Brewing Parameters: 20g beans, water-to-coffee ratio 1:15, water temperature 95℃, grind size 4 (sugar particle consistency)

Equipment: V60 dripper, grind: BG-6S. Recommended extraction ratio: 1:15-1:18 (concentration can be adjusted according to personal taste)

Brewing Process: Start with 30g of water for bloom, wait 30 seconds. Begin timing when pouring starts. For the second pour, continue until reaching 125g. Wait for the water level to drop just before exposing the coffee bed, then proceed with the third pour until reaching 225g. Wait for the water level to drop just before exposing the coffee bed, then remove the dripper. Total extraction time: 2:00.

The FrontStreet Coffee Colombia Huilan Pink Bourbon begins with a subtle ginger flavor in the front end, with sweet orange as the main body, and slight berry notes in the finish. It features bright fruit acidity, and the washed processing results in a relatively clean mouthfeel. I initially expected a strong ginger flavor—drinking hot ginger tea in winter would be nice—but surprisingly, it turned out to be such sweet orange. This transformation was quite astonishing.
