The moment that decides the cup
Start with 45 g. The next scale totals are 120, 180, 225 and 250 g: these are accumulated amounts, not the water added in each pour.
What it forgives — and what it doesn't
Other 4:6 versions may use different doses and pour sequences. Repeat this sequence before comparing the cup or changing one variable.
Who it's for
For anyone who can track separate pours with a scale and timer. Open the V60 guide to compare this recipe with other options.
