Brewing Recipe

###  Hario Woodneck Basic Recipe

 by [@rbrigleb](https://unpacking.coffee/users/rbrigleb) • 12:15

 A classic cloth-filter pour-over method that produces a rich, full-bodied cup with more natural oils than paper-filtered coffee. The cloth filter provides excellent clarity while maintaining body.

###  Ingredients

     Coffee   25g     Brew Amount   400g     Dose   Medium-fine (like fine sand)     Temperature   93-95°C / 200°F     Yield   1:16     Filter   Cloth filter

  0:00

 Rinse the cloth filter with hot water to remove any flavors and preheat the dripper

 Continue pouring in slow circles, adding water gradually until you reach 400g total by about 3 minutes
