Drip in a speckle cortado
A drip in a speckle cortado, #831 of 999. Late Shift light, oak counter. Wave on the surface. Common, roast score 97.8.
The recipe
27 g · 539 g water · 94 °C · 3.8 min
- Rinse the paper, discard the rinse water, and add 27 g at a medium grind.
- Bloom with 50 g of 94 °C water for forty seconds, then pour the rest in two even circles.
- The bed should run dry at about four minutes. Swirl the carafe and pour into the cortado.
- The wave is set on at the pass, not poured — there is no steamed milk in this one, so it is drawn in the foam with a pick.
