Citrus with a nut-and-sugar foundation
The almond and praline references offer a useful counterpoint to the citrus description. For pour-over, keep the initial recipe simple so you can judge sweetness and acidity together. A paper filter can help you assess the lighter citrus notes without the sediment and heavier texture associated with some immersion brewers.
Brewing and storage
For whole-bean preparation, compare Turin coffee grinders suited to your brew method.

A measured starting recipe
For a filter-brew starting point, measure 20 g coffee and 320 g water, a 1:16 brew ratio by mass. Use a grind appropriate for your filter and keep the bed evenly saturated. If the cup is balanced but weak, increase the coffee dose slightly; if it is sour or dry, adjust extraction through grind size before changing several variables at once.
More preparation and product questions
Where does this coffee come from?
Nariño, Colombia.
Which processing method is documented?
Washed.
What cup or flavor profile is described?
Almond, praline and sweet-tart citrus.
How do I adjust strength without losing balance?
Change the coffee-to-water ratio when the flavor is balanced but the cup is too weak or concentrated. Use grind adjustments when the problem is extraction, keeping dose and water quantity constant for comparison.
Should I judge the coffee only while piping hot?
Taste again as the cup cools toward a comfortable drinking temperature. Sweetness, acidity, body and finish may become easier to distinguish before you decide how to adjust the next brew.
How should I store the coffee?
Keep it sealed away from heat, light and moisture. Grind whole beans shortly before brewing; keep ground coffee tightly closed between uses to limit exposure to air.
