Its pretty crazy how much value this man just dropped in a single video....its essentially a masterclass in pourover which is like 200$ here in Toronto
@@pravinlnrk surprisingly a bit over extracted despite finishing in 2:00 with a 1:00 bloom. Will have to play around with it. Also using 2-week old beans that unfortunately sat in a hot car all day last week so that could be part of the issue. I’ve done is 1:2:1 recipe with a light roast and have phenomenal results before
Elemental Coffee Roasters has a 10+year old video on how to brew with a Chemex and it’s always been my absolute favorite “recipe” for the Chemex. I see a lot of similarities. I like how you’re not afraid to push bloom times past the often blindly, parroted 30-45 seconds and explain why and what to look at during it. You explain things very well like a scientist that knows what they’re talking about. Great video with a wealth of knowledge.
I've made 1,000s of pourovers in my life and I have neither heard of nor tried a 2min extraction. Tried it today with a Wilder Lasso gesha from September and easily top 10 coffees I've ever made at home. What else do you know, Burr Man?
Probably the best pourover video I have ever watched. Thumbs up for using relatively cheap hand grinder and that you focus on other variables that number of clicks. Big thanks for this video!!!
Beans were a little past prime....so I lowered temp a few degrees, but upped my bloom time from 30sec to almost 60sec, and a little swirl. Much more enjoyable cup. Glad I watched this video today - I have new roasts arriving in a couple days! I've always done that little swirl when I do less pours, to make it flow through slower and more evenly. You must enjoy the experimentation process until finding something that you really like - it's never the same!
I agree with Lance's method. Keep it simple and minimize the number of variables to worry about. Two pours has worked great for me. I only adjust grind size and yield now. Water temp is always around 94-95˚C (just off the boil). If you're running a business, it's also easier to train your baristas when its kept simple.
Can't say enough about how much this video has improved my pourovers. Thank you Lance. Your thought process behind how you approach a particular bean, and how that then nudges your technique was exactly the thing I needed to see and hear! This is now the de-facto pourover video on UA-cam.
Just tried your recipe and its night and day compared to my earlier cup! I had no idea these cheap AF beans could be so smooth. The bitterness is nearly non existent, I'm truly shocked. Thank you for explaining things so well and offering your knowledge to help people like me learn
Lance's series of pourover videos combined with Aramse's are amazing. Beans I didn't enjoy are now juicy and bright, and I feel like I am finally finding my sweet spots. Hoffmann helped me get my undergrad but Lance is the one who got me my Phd!
Lance…just wanna say thanks…you’ve changed the game when it comes to my approach…just brewed up a coffee after being half way through your video and it was the best one I’ve brewed all month!
I switched from James Hoffmann to Tetsu and to this and know what man..? I will stick to only two pours 😅 it’s a fucking stress and many variables going five pours and whatsoever. Keep it simple. Now this will be my mantra. I got a good cup of coffee with this method. JF was giving me a lot of headache.
Hey Lance, just came across this video, and I gotta throw you some props. Had a bag of beans from someone I thought might be a bit older (don't get hit with that aroma when grinding) and previous cups had bitterness and astringency. After watching this, I tried a couple things at once (i know i know "one variable at a time") b/c I knew I had to knock this back quite a bit. Dropped the temp to 90C and shortened the ratio to 1:15 (kept the grind size the same). Single gentle circular pour (After bloom), and it was much more enjoyable/tolerable cup, but still had that bitter finish and the end of a taste. maybe a center pour can help, but it already drew down in 2:10. Anyways thank you for your help on my journey to better understand a pour over.
Here's one more request that you let us know how many clicks you set your Heptagonal Q2 to! (since you already brought up the fact that you're using this grinder, and that you usually don't change grind size - giving us this tiny detail would make the whole things sooooo much more applicable for so many of us)
THIS!!! Please! I also have a K-Max and constantly note my grind size but I always feel like I’m grinding too fine for pourover. I recall Lance saying he likes his pour over grinds in the courser side and based on my grinder, I’d guess that’s somewhere between 50 and 60 but that’s a complete shot in the dark here.
@@banks927 That sounds about right, probably closer to 60. I also have a kmax. When using the orea v3 (which needs a courser grind than the v60) i'm on 70. I tried 70 on the v60 using lances recipe and it was really hollow. Before using his recipe on a v60 I was trying to go as fine as possible and I was on 52. (i'm yet to properly try dial in in on a v60)
@@banks927 He replied to someone else below that it's 73 clicks. This is so much courser than I had expected and it's what 1Z suggest for French Press. His grind size really doesn't look that course from the video. I'm willing to try it though.
I'm used to do 5 gentle pours. I've tried to do this technic with only 2 pours but pouring from higher height. It's actually very nice, easy drinking like a good tea. Not as much complexity in the taste than 5 pours but I guess more forgiving to enjoy most of our pour overs
I stealed from your videos one of the working method ,there is a 45sec wait after first pour to degas fresh beans,sometimes increase to 1 min for best results,thanks a lot to you Lance for delicious cups I ever drank
Is there a reason why you don’t really do the spoon “excavation” during your bloom period anymore? You advocated for that in your ultimate pour over video and I’ve been following that ever since. Just curious as to why you don’t include it anymore.
This video came out in my moment of need - transitioning from Lagom Mini to SSP MPs on Zerno and suddenly my grind size and standard method are falling apart 😂 This was helpful!
I was wondering if I was just a peasant whose palate is not developed enough because every coffee is dialed in at the same settings within a 2-clik-margin for me. I just watched this and felt relieved. Thank you, I've learned something today. Maybe I felt that way because I like to go the extra mile with espresso and do much more experimenting there. Filter just seems to be simple and effective.
Thank you so much for this. What a knowledge drop. I'm going to watch this again and again with some weeks pause to improve my dialing skills. Thanks Lance ❤
Nice. BTW, Czechia is pronounced "check-ee-uh" for US English speakers (although more than a few people there tell me they still say Czech Republic). A few more nice roasters in that general neighborhood are Poppy Beans and Gill in Brno, The Pelican in Vienna, Kaffeelix in St. Pölten, and over in Bratislava there are Good Times, Black Point, The Jungle, Concept (actually in Piešt'any), Triple Five, and Soren.
Watched this video over the course of 2 or 3 days and it was very interesting. Funnyli i already use some of the techniques but your knowledge is so insightful! :)
Very timely video. I have gone to half-caff, med. roasts and per this video lowered the water temp 188-190. Also, a new KINGrinder k6 just arrived so the previous dialing in video was helpful. Getting good pour over results, thank you.
That's a great grinder, I typically run 108 clicks on a pour over. Slow feed helps a lot with reducing fines and it does increase the size of the grounds overall.
Sorry, I am in Portugal right now and don’t have access to my record of beans & blends. But half-caffs pre-packaged by company are still rare and I have only tried 2 or 3. What I do I use Whole Food buzz-free consistently 50% with any other full caff bean. I find the Buzz-free becomes almost a neutral and I can still taste the flavors differences blend to blend. It may be muted, but I can tell Ethiopian from Guatemalan. I wish more roasters would do a half-caff, with demand they may. I just can’t do as much caffeine as I use to.
I feel like I have too much experience with pour over, but I’m always excited when a coffee pro I admire does a deep-dive on their thoughts and technique. I’m sure I’ll have some takeaways for my afternoon cup 🙏🏻
This is just brilliant! I think it’s a pinnacle of what these types of videos could ever be. Thanks, Lance, for being such a keen intellect and powerful force driving this topic forward, always pushing it further, never sitting still🙏 I gained a lot. Now this is going to be my default recipe/mindset and I’ll try my best to acquire it😌
This was fantastic! I learned so much! I'll need to watch again when i can take further notes. Id love to have something like this for other brew methods too. Felt like i was in class but an enjoyable class where i actually look forward to homework
We got so close to no singing! Lol :) I'm still developing my coffee knowledge and understanding how to amend brewing techniques by the bean processing and origin, etc. I'm still at the point of amending simply based on roast and roast date. But your essential philosophy of have a foundation process and gently tweak from there makes absolute sense and I couldn't agree more. And at the end of the day, so long as you (the drinker) likes the coffee that's really all that matters! :)
I was literally making a pour over with my origami and kalita wave filter as this came out. I used to pour the heck out of my pour overs however after watching your videos I have found a 3 pour recipe to be better. Great video.
After using the Pulsar/Commandante C40 combo (mostly following Jonathan Gagné's recommendations) for more than half a year now, I find your "Stick to What You Know" remark to be very true. But getting to that point took me a few years :D
one thing that have improved my pour over drastically and that I never brew without, is a chop stick, I bloom and mix it with my chopstick, then after I finish my pour I also stirr to mix it all together, ever since I started doing that, I never brew without it, it's just better in my oppinion
Once while grinding freshly roasted peru beans from one of polish roasters I broke burr in my first Hario skerton grinder :D My friends came over so decided to brew it anyway. Coffee tasted like white bean the vegetable :D

Hi Lance, could you please let us know which grind size used? I have the same grinder and it could help me to compare it with the others grinder I own. Thanks!!
@@LanceHedrick You should put this info in the description/pinned comment. Took me forever to find it and a bunch of people (myself included) were asking for it.
I'm glad you showed a decaf brew. i've been trying to figure this out. I'm surprised though you only had water at 88 degrees. i have been using 198 or so and maybe i have it way too hot. unless that has less of an impact.
Awesome!! Thank you so much for the video. Definetly A LOT of knowledge to be absorbed... Hahaha If you could make a video talking about draw down speed (maybe showing closeup examples) it would be awesome too... Thank you again!!!
Great video, what type of grind setting would you shoot for a good starting point on kUltra? Is there a micron size that’s your baseline? Thanks and great stuff
Blimey, perfect timing indeed! I have just one last dose of Pepe Jijon from Manhattan and haven’t yet touched the Intelligentsia coffee from the last Standart issue. So that makes 2 out of 6! Couldn’t be happier!
Love all your work lance. I appreciate you are trying to get us to focus on what we like, rather than be didactic. Can’t help asking, would your approach be at all different with a flat bottom?
Love this! Even though you have been making a lot of similar videos, I watched every single one and still learning more. Even better, I am literally experiencing my coffees getting better because of them, thanks so much!
Would be nice if in those kind of videos you could display the timer part of the scale. Or maybe add it as overlay in video. It might help noobies like me to see the pouring speed and as well resolve the confusing part "one minute bloom from start of the first pour or after first pour". Thanks ahead 🙏🏽
Awesome video, thanks for sharing your little checklist for pourovers :) Btw love the singing parts, my girlfriend was laughing again because she overheard me watching your video! I don‘t know if you remember, but we‘ve met at WOC at Weber Workshops and I really wanted to say that it was a pleasure to meet you and watch you pull some espresso shots. Keep up the good work, cheers 🫶🏻
I’d love to stop my thrashing and hanging click settings. In the thread Lance mentions 73 clicks on q2. About 29 on Comandante? Way courser than I was doing. Trying it out ! Love these vids
Hey Lance, got a question. Is there any specifc reason why you don't excavate the bloom like in your ultimate pourover recipe video? Thank you for all the great tips!
44:28 I think the next lyrics go: "Whep? ..yrgn... samoreee. Bells will ring, ting-a-la-ling tingawlinnnng as a bell bing..mawrayyyee." I only know the John Daker version.
Hey Lance, In your experience with the Kingrinder K6, how many clicks would you recommend to get a similar grind size to the one you use here? Thanks! ❤
I would have to imagine he's using somewhere around 100 clicks, with most of his drawdowns being in the low 2 minutes. Before watching this video, I was doing 90 clicks for 2:30-3:00 before. I'm going to try coarser and his recipe next.
@@DJangles ah that's cool man, thanks for responding! Are you enjoying the cups you get from 90 clicks? I've been using light-medium roasted, thermic aerobic, natural process El Moral beans and chasing balance of flavour all the way down to 63 clicks with a drawdown of 2:45-3:00 so I've always been curious what people are using as the Kingrinder online guide says from 90-120 clicks for pourover, but I find this range to be too hollow.
I use it daily and 70 clicks, (110 on the grinder) is a solid setting. Make sure to slow feed to reduce fines by grinding almost sideways. That also increases the overall grind size.
Love this! I’ve seen all the other pour over videos that highlight the variables.. but having it all in one with ‘pour along commentary’ adds alot of value! Btw I am spending a few days in Porto right now.. any specialty coffee cafe recommendations? Thank you!
@@LanceHedrick thank you for the recommendations! Had time to visit SO and Protest Kitchen.. the coffee was amazing .. AND the food at Protest Kitchen is definitely next level.
Hi Lance, 1. does anything change going from 15g to 30g? I had issues with stalling last time I tried your recipes (even at 3 rotations on my JX) but I usually make 30g/500ml at at time. 2. The Q2 is a pretty common grinder, can you recommend the starting grind size?
I love Lance and this video is great, but I wish he summarized the variables and what they do in a concise way. He can be a little scattered and I have to watch multiple times for the nuggets of info he says in passing.
Thank you, Lance! Would doing an initial cupping before doing a brew be beneficial? I know sometimes you must feel like you are having to repeat yourself with this information. As somebody who is still learning the fine art of dialing in a brew, this information has been exceptionally helpful. 👍
Thank you much for sharing this and will go to this way of brewing - very informative and sure it will be helpful. I have a request if you don't mind. Would you do a follow up to this between Gesha, Pacama (may have spelled it wrong), Peaberry, etc. I'm sure would be helpful as well. Thanks
Thank you so much for this Video! I was wondering why chose this particular grinder. Because its versatility? And since I have the same grinder, I was wondering if you could give some specific settings. Again thank you so much and greetings from berlin
Lance….great video and information. I’m curious about draw down time as you didn’t really mention this (or I missed it) during your explanation. I would imagine that roast and grind all have an impact on draw down time, but what are some general rules you would recommend? Cheers to a great cup of coffee. 😊

@@ghizuudo u know the microns for 73 clicks ? bcs i read on the web it only has abt 30 clicks or i read it wrong way
Great video, what type of grind setting would you shoot for a good starting point on kUltra? Is there a micron size that’s your baseline? Thanks and great stuff
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Freaking awesome video. Thanks, Lance.
Thank you Lance for the great approach to the group of people who really need this information. Love it
Glad you're finally walking us through this!! Felt like you were always trying to dodge this during the Q&As
Never dodging. Just nuanced and didn't wanna say a little without context
September and Kyle Rowsell is awesome! Luna coffee is amazing too. Go Canada.
this is the most complete dial-in video out there, thanks, Lance! What would be the grind setting for this recipe using a ZP6?
Blimey, perfect timing indeed!
I have just one last dose of Pepe Jijon from Manhattan and haven’t yet touched the Intelligentsia coffee from the last Standart issue.
So that makes 2 out of 6! Couldn’t be happier!
Can you tell us how many clicks on the Q2 heptagonal are u using? Thanks🔥🔥
Looks like he answered this an hour ago. 73 clicks!
Love all your work lance. I appreciate you are trying to get us to focus on what we like, rather than be didactic. Can’t help asking, would your approach be at all different with a flat bottom?
Love this! Even though you have been making a lot of similar videos, I watched every single one and still learning more. Even better, I am literally experiencing my coffees getting better because of them, thanks so much!
This is an outstanding video. I will be returning to it again and again. Thank you!
AN EXTRA LONG LANCE VIDEO LET'S GO I AM READY
Would be nice if in those kind of videos you could display the timer part of the scale. Or maybe add it as overlay in video.
It might help noobies like me to see the pouring speed and as well resolve the confusing part "one minute bloom from start of the first pour or after first pour".
Thanks ahead 🙏🏽
A cheat sheet would be very helpful ;)
thanks, Lance!
Just had my evening pourover and this video dropped... Well, no better time to dial in the '24 harvest beans
How do you sleep at night.. literally
Greetings from čečija 😁❤
Love the Videos Lance! Keep up the amazing work❤😎
You my guy... are The Man!!! Salute
Awesome video, thanks for sharing your little checklist for pourovers :)
Btw love the singing parts, my girlfriend was laughing again because she overheard me watching your video!
I don‘t know if you remember, but we‘ve met at WOC at Weber Workshops and I really wanted to say that it was a pleasure to meet you and watch you pull some espresso shots. Keep up the good work, cheers 🫶🏻
ah man a 50 minute video, thanks😌👍🏻
Curious if you changed the water recipe for each bean? If not - what recipe did you use across them? Thanks!
Didn't know grinding sideways was a thing :o Interesting. Gonna hold it sideaways like an absolute G now.
I’d love to stop my thrashing and hanging click settings. In the thread Lance mentions 73 clicks on q2. About 29 on Comandante? Way courser than I was doing. Trying it out ! Love these vids
Hi Lance, thanks for the great video as always. Which grind setting would you recommend as a starting point in a comandante c40? Thank you :)
Hey Lance, got a question. Is there any specifc reason why you don't excavate the bloom like in your ultimate pourover recipe video?
Thank you for all the great tips!
44:28 I think the next lyrics go: "Whep? ..yrgn... samoreee. Bells will ring, ting-a-la-ling tingawlinnnng as a bell bing..mawrayyyee." I only know the John Daker version.
Hey Lance,
In your experience with the Kingrinder K6, how many clicks would you recommend to get a similar grind size to the one you use here?
Thanks! ❤
I would have to imagine he's using somewhere around 100 clicks, with most of his drawdowns being in the low 2 minutes. Before watching this video, I was doing 90 clicks for 2:30-3:00 before. I'm going to try coarser and his recipe next.
@@DJangles ah that's cool man, thanks for responding! Are you enjoying the cups you get from 90 clicks?
I've been using light-medium roasted, thermic aerobic, natural process El Moral beans and chasing balance of flavour all the way down to 63 clicks with a drawdown of 2:45-3:00 so I've always been curious what people are using as the Kingrinder online guide says from 90-120 clicks for pourover, but I find this range to be too hollow.
I use it daily and 70 clicks, (110 on the grinder) is a solid setting. Make sure to slow feed to reduce fines by grinding almost sideways. That also increases the overall grind size.
Love this! I’ve seen all the other pour over videos that highlight the variables.. but having it all in one with ‘pour along commentary’ adds alot of value! Btw I am spending a few days in Porto right now.. any specialty coffee cafe recommendations? Thank you!
nice! definitely need to go to hakko and protest kitchen and SO and Von and Vonnie!
@@LanceHedrick thank you for the recommendations! Had time to visit SO and Protest Kitchen.. the coffee was amazing .. AND the food at Protest Kitchen is definitely next level.
Hi Lance,
1. does anything change going from 15g to 30g? I had issues with stalling last time I tried your recipes (even at 3 rotations on my JX) but I usually make 30g/500ml at at time.
2. The Q2 is a pretty common grinder, can you recommend the starting grind size?
I love Lance and this video is great, but I wish he summarized the variables and what they do in a concise way. He can be a little scattered and I have to watch multiple times for the nuggets of info he says in passing.
excellent video and unique with 1zpresso q2 well explained. What settings do you use on that heptagonal q2? I have the same one. greetings☕✨💪🌎🌱
Thank you, Lance! Would doing an initial cupping before doing a brew be beneficial? I know sometimes you must feel like you are having to repeat yourself with this information. As somebody who is still learning the fine art of dialing in a brew, this information has been exceptionally helpful. 👍
Thank you much for sharing this and will go to this way of brewing - very informative and sure it will be helpful. I have a request if you don't mind. Would you do a follow up to this between Gesha, Pacama (may have spelled it wrong), Peaberry, etc. I'm sure would be helpful as well. Thanks
Thank you so much for this Video! I was wondering why chose this particular grinder. Because its versatility? And since I have the same grinder, I was wondering if you could give some specific settings. Again thank you so much and greetings from berlin
Lance….great video and information. I’m curious about draw down time as you didn’t really mention this (or I missed it) during your explanation. I would imagine that roast and grind all have an impact on draw down time, but what are some general rules you would recommend? Cheers to a great cup of coffee. 😊
