What You’ll Need:
- V60 Dripper
- Coffee Scale
- Kettle
- Ice
- Con Todo Coffee
Ingredients:
- 20 grams medium fine grind coffee
- 130 grams of large ice cubes
- 130 grams of hot water (just off the boil)
Instructions:
-
Prepare Your Mug with Ice:
- Place 130 grams of large ice cubes into your mug. This will cool the coffee instantly as it brews, locking in the flavors and creating a refreshing iced coffee.
-
Set Up Your V60:
- Place your V60 dripper over the mug filled with ice.
- Add 20 grams of medium fine ground Con Todo Coffee into the V60 filter.
-
Initial Pour:
- Boil your water
- Wait approximately 30 seconds before you start your bloom (the next step).
- Slowly pour 50 grams of hot water over the coffee grounds. Make sure all the grounds are evenly saturated.
- Allow the coffee to bloom for 30 seconds. This releases gases and enhances flavor extraction.
-
Second Pour:
- At the 30-second mark, slowly pour an additional 80 grams of hot water over the coffee grounds. This should bring the total amount of water to 130 grams.
- Pour in a circular motion, starting from the center and moving outward to ensure even extraction.
-
Brew Time:
- Let the coffee drip through the V60. The brewing process should take about 2:30 to 3:00 minutes.
- As the hot coffee drips onto the ice, it will cool immediately, preserving the coffee's bright and complex flavors.
Enjoy Your Iced Coffee:
Your V60 iced coffee is now ready to enjoy! The result is a perfectly balanced and refreshing beverage that's great for hot days or any time you need a coffee fix. The V60 method ensures a clean and crisp taste, highlighting the unique flavors of Con Todo Coffee.
