Day 5

Preparation

Time: 10:30

Washed the filter, warmed the mug and prepared hot water. Water temperature was 94.2ºC. Measured 21g coffee and poured 50ml over the coffee to wet it. Waited 30s and pured over a further 250ml water, keeping the filter funnel about half full.

Observation

The grounds reminded my of freshly pealed parsnip. Distinctly sweet but earthy, with a hint of apple. In the mug the armoa shifted, giving off a hint of berry or bramble.

This was a light roast, and in the mouth reminded me of a mixed berry herbal tea. All hints of parsnip were gone and berrys dominated.
