My go-to recipe, as a general structure, has been as follows:
0:00 (open) - pour up to 3x the coffee weight
0:30 (open) - pour up to 10x the coffee weight
1:00 (closed) - pour up to 16x the coffee weight
1:45 - open valve and drawdown
I’ve been really enjoying the results from this recipe but would like to try some others too. If anyone has a go-to recipe I’d love to hear about it!


Lance Hedrick’s recipe has water before beans too I think. I’ve done it a few times and it turned out excellent, but the recipe as a whole is a fair bit more complicated so I usually stick with the one I wrote about in the post. Maybe I’ll try your recipe for my afternoon cup today. I haven’t had a good iced coffee in a while.
