How Does Coffee Grind Size Affect Flow Rate? What Are the Differences Between Various Filter Dripper Brands and Filter Papers?
A couple of days ago, we mentioned the importance of extraction time. Extraction time refers to the total time hot water spends extracting coffee, and the duration determines how many substances are extracted by the hot water. Therefore, extraction time is crucial. What determines extraction time is the infiltration speed of hot water. When hot water's infiltration speed is faster, extraction time becomes shorter.

How to Control Water Flow in Pour-Over Coffee? What Are the Common Mistakes?
When I first started with pour-over coffee, I didn't quite understand why it was necessary to control the water flow. Isn't pour-over coffee simply about holding a kettle and pouring water directly onto the coffee grounds? I had no idea what terms like "large water flow" or "small water flow" meant. When I poured water myself, my flow control wasn't precise like others' - it fluctuated between too fast and too slow.

Analysis of Slow Pour-Over Coffee Flow Rate: What to Do When Coffee Won't Drain Properly?
Pour-over coffee, as a representative of drip extraction, can be seen as a process where water is first poured into coffee grounds, allowing the water to pass through the coffee layer and flow into the lower pot. With the assistance of an electronic scale, we can effectively control the pouring time. However, the total time for water to flow into the lower pot is affected by factors such as the grind size of the coffee grounds and the water absorption of the particles

Pour-Over Coffee Pre-Infusion Time Guide: Water Pouring, Coffee Grounds, and KALITA Dripper
The first water pour is the process of awakening coffee flavors, letting hot water flow gently from the pour-over kettle in a clockwise circular motion to moisten the coffee grounds surface. After a brief wait, the coffee grounds will expand, and within about 20 seconds, a few drops of coffee will flow from the pour-over cup. The duration of pre-infusion time determines the success of pour-over coffee, much like building a house requires a solid foundation—once the foundation is stable, half the work is done.

Pour-Over Coffee Tutorial: How Circular Pouring Size in Three-Stage Brewing Affects Coffee Flavor
Introduction Whether a cup of pour-over coffee tastes good depends not only on the beans themselves and brewing parameters, but also greatly on the brewer's mood/emotions during the process. While emotions cannot directly change the coffee's flavor, they can affect the control of water flow and circular pouring speed. When feeling impatient or restless, one may want to finish brewing quickly, thus increasing water flow and pouring speed,

How to Use a Coffee Shower Dripper? Will Strong Water Flow Cause Blockage When Pour-Over Brewing? How to Use the Stirring Method?
Many novice coffee brewers, when starting to learn coffee brewing, often struggle to control the water flow, resulting in injected hot water having excessive penetrating power! Excessive penetration greatly increases turbulence effects, which easily causes fine coffee grounds to be carried to the bottom by the water flow, blocking the filter paper, ultimately causing the coffee to become over-extracted due to excessive extraction time.

What Does Flow Restriction Mean in Pour-Over Coffee? What's the Purpose of Flow Restriction in Drip Coffee? What's the Difference Between Coffee-to-Water Ratio and Coffee-to-Brewed-Liquid Ratio?
In the coffee brewing process, the practice of removing the filter cup while there's still liquid that hasn't fully permeated through is what we call "flow restriction." Since flow restriction removes the final portion of coffee liquid, and many coffee enthusiasts believe that bitterness comes from this final portion, this technique has become

Pour-Over Coffee Dripper Types and Characteristics: A Guide to Different Pour-Over Coffee Equipment
When pouring hot water, the filtration speed varies, which in turn changes the extraction time. Differences in extraction time lead to variations in coffee flavor. The filtration speed changes based on the hole area on the dripper - smaller holes result in slower filtration. This type of dripper allows the poured hot water to first remain in the dripper before filtering at a controlled speed, enabling extraction during the dwell
