Basket geometry and flow
How basket geometry—diameter, depth, and hole pattern—affects espresso flow dynamics, extraction balance, and flavor outcomes.
Faster flow
Grind setting for clarity vs strength
How grind size adjustments in Moka pot and ibrik brewing shift the balance between clarity and strength in the final cup.
Filter paper properties and effects
How filter paper properties—thickness, porosity, material, and treatments—affect flow, clarity, and flavor in brewed coffee.
Cold drip towers and flow control
How cold drip towers work, the role of flow control in extraction, and how they differ from immersion cold brew methods.
Grinder-to-puck workflow timing
Why timing between grinding, puck preparation, and extraction matters, and how to streamline workflow for consistency.
Basket design and hole patterns
How espresso basket design and hole patterns affect puck resistance, flow, and flavor consistency.
