Brewer: Ceramic cup or mug - To absorb heat from the brew.
DIRECTIONS
-
Pour the grounds into the ceramic cup or mug.
-
Pour the boiling water directly at the coffee grounds using a slow pour rate, in order to wet and degas all coffee evenly. Aim at the dark spots and maintain a slow pour for the full volume.
-
Sink any floating grounds with a WDT tool, then skim the surface for remaining debris with a spoon.

Just before the brew is cool enough to drink, about 8-10 minutes in, stir the entire brew to thoroughly distribute all the grounds in a temporary suspension. Let sit for a minute, then taste.
Enjoy!
