A Step-by-Step Guide Our Super Sensible blend deserves the best brewing method, and the V60 pour-over is known for bringing out the true flavors and nuances in coffee. Here's how to achieve the perfect V60 pour-over using our blend:
- Gather your equipment:

- V60 filter paper
- Gooseneck kettle
- Coffee grinder (on the finer side of a filter grind)
- Digital scale
- Timer
- Super Sensible coffee blend (preferably 5-10 days aged - refer to roast date sticker on back of bag)
- Hot water (96°C)
- Prepare the coffee and filter:
- Fold the filter along the seam and place it in the V60 dripper.
- Rinse the filter with hot water to eliminate any paper taste and preheat the dripper.
- Discard the rinse water.
- Grind 20-22g of "Super Sensible" coffee blend to a medium-fine consistency.
- Begin the bloom:
- Place the V60 dripper on the digital scale and tare it.
- Add the ground coffee to the filter and create a small well in the center.
- Start the timer and pour 50-60g of hot water (about double the coffee weight) in a circular motion, ensuring all grounds are saturated.
- Wait 30-45 seconds for the coffee to "bloom," allowing gases to escape and facilitating even extraction.
- The pour:
- Resume pouring in a slow, steady spiral motion, starting from the center and moving outwards, then back to the center. Aim for a total water weight of 300-330g.
- Maintain a consistent water level, keeping the slurry temperature stable and ensuring even extraction.
- The total pouring time should be around 2-2.5 minutes.
- Final steps:
- Allow the water to fully drain through the coffee grounds, which should take about 30 seconds.
- Carefully remove the filter with spent grounds and dispose of it.
- Swirl the coffee in the server to ensure uniformity, then pour it into your favorite cup.
