The recipe
18.7 g in · 38 g out · 25 s · 93 °C
- Grind 18.7 g fine enough that the first drops take five seconds to appear, and distribute before you tamp.
- Pull to 38 g in 25 seconds. If it runs fast it will taste thin and sour; if it chokes, coarsen by a hair and pull again.
- Serve in the thermos without waiting.
- The tulip is set on at the pass, not poured — there is no steamed milk in this one, so it is drawn in the cinnamon with a pick.
- Grate cinnamon over the top — a rasp, not a shaker.
