Place conical filter in top of brewer. Optional: Wet the filter and prewarm brewer by pouring hot water through the filter and brewer for 10 seconds. Discard water, taking care to not dislodge the filter.

Add ground coffee to filter

Brew

Add enough hot water to saturate the grounds. Stir to evenly wet the grounds.

After 30 seconds, continue to slowly pour water over the grounds until all water has been added. Water can be added continuously, or in a few pours. Take care to pour the water evenly over the ground bed and not directly on the sides of the filter. A gentle circular pouring motion works well.
