Glossary3
Bloom
Pre-infusion. A small water dose over the grounds (usually 2x the coffee weight) that releases CO2 from fresh coffee. Without it, extraction gets uneven.
Swirl
A gentle circular motion of the dripper. Levels the coffee bed and releases fines stuck on the walls, improving extraction uniformity.
Drawdown
The time between the final pour and the end of drainage. Too long suggests grind too fine or a clogged bed; too short, grind too coarse.
