The top chamber controls the drip flow through the middle and bottom. Fill the chamber with 1000 grams of ice and 900 grams of water, and set aside 100 grams for later.
2. Fill Middle Chamber
The middle chamber is where the coffee goes! Cover it with a wet, round paper filter. Saturate the grounds by slowly pouring 100 grams of water on top of the filter. Ensure the grounds are evenly soaked to avoid clogging!
3. Set Drip Rate
Set the drip rate to 4 drips every 6 seconds, or in sync with 40 bpm using a metronome. The coffee journey finishes at the bottom chamber, where each drip falls through the coffee grounds, having a delicious cold brew coffee.
