Instructions

What you need:

1 single serve packet
1 cup of water (224 grams = 8oz = 1 cup), just off the boil
1 mug (note: a wide mug may stretch the packet too far to be used correctly)
Kitchen scale (optional, but it helps)
Kettle

 

Steps:

1. Pull the wings apart and place packet over the mug. Fold the sides of the wing back to be perpendicular to your mug, which will provide greater stability.

2. Bloom- pour about 30ml of water, or just enough to cover the grounds. Let it sit for 30 seconds.

3. Slowly pour the remaining water (up to the one cup total) through the coffee, making sure to cover the grounds. If the water gets to the top of the bag, pause and let it recede until it's just over the grounds. The whole process including the bloom should take about two minutes. It is okay if during the brewing the coffee rises up past the bottom of the packet.

4. Enjoy your coffee! You can dispose of your packet- it is biodegradable, and depending on where you live, likely compostable as well.
