Coarse Small Kalita Wave

Coarse Small Kalita Wave

Kalita Wave recipe by @rbrigleb

This is more like my experience with my Fellow Ode 1st gen. Always make sure to pre-rinse the paper filter to wash off the papery taste. Remember also to give the brewer a quick shake to level the coffee bed. Start your timer the moment you start pouring.
