The lighter roast development generally benefits from sufficient water temperature and contact time. Increase extraction gradually if the cup tastes sharp or hollow; reduce it if the finish becomes drying.
Brewing guidance
For filter coffee, start near a 1:16 brew ratio—about 22 grams of coffee to 350 grams of filtered water. Adjust grind to manage drawdown: finer when water passes too quickly and the cup tastes thin, coarser when flow stalls or the finish turns dry. For espresso, begin near a 1:2 dose-to-beverage-yield ratio and dial in by taste.
Use fresh filtered water and weigh both dose and beverage yield. Change one variable at a time so grind, brew ratio, temperature, and contact time remain easy to diagnose. Browse Turin coffee grinders for more consistent particle size, compare Turin espresso machines for controlled espresso preparation, or explore more specialty coffee.
