Kalita Wave Brew Guide


Recipe 

Coffee: 25g – Medium Filter grind
Brewer: Kalita Wave 185
Water: 400g, 93ºC 

  1. Place filter paper into the Kalita Wave and thoroughly rinse using hot water. 
  2. Place the Wave onto an empty, pre-warmed mug or jug and add the coffee into the base of the filter, ensuring the bed of coffee is even and flat. 
  3. Gently pour 50 grams of hot water onto the coffee, and leave to ‘bloom’ for 30 seconds. 
  4. At the 0:30 mark, gently add 110g of hot water. Use the same pour motion each time, with 3 concentric circles, starting from the centre and moving outwards. 
  5. At the 0:45 mark, add another 60g water.
  6. At the 1:00 mark, add another 60g water. 
  7. At the 1:15 mark, add another 60g water.
  8. At the 1:45 mark, add the final 60g water. 
  9. Wait for the water to pass through the coffee completely. The total brew time should be around 3 minutes.
