Thank you for the video. I just got myself a kalita wave and boy was I surprised at how good the first cup I made was. It was full of flavors, not very smooth a cup like chemex and it had no bitterness at all, which is just how I like it. I think I finally found my dream coffee maker! I'm forever in love 😍. I've been using chemex for a couple years now, and while it does produce really good cups, I find that it's not as consistent since it doesn't allow much leeway when brewing coffee compared to the kalita wave.
Temperature of the water depends a lot on the coffee and the roast level. 200°F is too low for some of the super light roast Scandinavian style coffees over here. Most of the time I wait 15-30 secafter the water has boiled.
Good video, decent tutorial.I have 4 of these Kalita Waves (1 x Style, 2 x 155 glass, and 1 x 185 glass) and these have given me by far the best and most consistent mug of coffee. It should be of note that the Style and 185 glass require a bit coarser grind to get to that 3-4 minute total IF and ONLY if you're brewing for 2 mugs worth. However, if you're using a one-mug serving, the grind mentioned in the video is good.Also, it's a bit redundant to brew over the carafe, then pour the carafe's entire contents into the mug. I'm sure it was done for posterity, but if you're brewing for one mug, skip the carafe and brew straight into your mug.
It's nice to brew into a carafe because you can pour a few sips into the cup which can cool to drinking temperature more quickly than a full mug. If you prefer a full mug, it remains an option too that way. What do you consider to be two mugs' worth of coffee? I noticed that brewing can be a little slow on my style set.
Great tutorial. I'd say that it's impossible to burn coffee with boiling water, since it's roasted around 260C water I don't see how 95C (boiling water once poured is around 95C when it hits the coffee) making it like a warm bath not burning it. Just a thought. Great video, very informative, very professional and great looking place to sit for a brew. I've subscribed and looking forward to more videos
It’s not a literal burning but rather a term to describe the mouthfeel. At high temperature, chemicals add extracted that are unpleasant, which is why no barista would recommend taking your water above 205 F for an extraction
Quick Q: you indicated a fine grind, like sand, but I've seen others recommend a medium-coarse, similar to what would be used in a Chemex. Any reason for the difference in methods?
sorry, easier to say this in grams as I'm weighing it when I brew. So, initial pour 44 grams (wait, allow 30 second bloom), then 100 grams till 1 minute, another 100 grams at 1:40, then finish off with 86 grams 2:30 to get to 330grams total water added. Total brew time 3:00-3:30
hi, i have a question, when i brew my coffee at the end, the coffee bed, isnt even like yours, its like my coffee, is around the paper and stuff like that, it doesnt stay even as how i started pouring. is it possible that i might be pouring from too far up or maybe pouring too much water in a small amount of time?
Hey Andrea cassar great question! So long as you're total brewing process is lasting 3-4 minutes and you're pouring slow and steady like in the brew works video then you should be good. One trick to try is when you're saturating the coffee one last time before finishing up pour the water around the outer edges of the filter to bring all those grinds together making it nice and even. This should do the trick to give you an even coffee bed upon completing your brew
andrea cassar it really depends on the coffee. Your brew ratios should change depending on the coffee you use. A great general starting point is 22 grams of coffee to 330 grams of water. Go up or down in weight as your taste prefer
This isn’t true, you can brew coffee at boiling especially if it’s light roast, the coffees already roasted over 200 degrees so that doesn’t make any sense
Yeah it’s interesting to see how coffee brewing has changed even after only 5 years. Water temperature is another tool you can use in brewing. Have a quick draining coffee and want to increase extraction just increase water temperature.

This is a great straight forward video. Definitely recommend this for beginners.
I scored one of these at goodwill for 99 cents! I’m excited to try it
no way! that's awesome!
Nice tutorial. Clean, easy to follow, and professional. Oh, and nice looking shop.
What a friendly man.
Just tried this with some Brazilian coffee and it was perfect! Thank you!

Hes using kalita wave 101 decanter and hario catcher awesome
I came here to learn about the kelita and you drop a steezy tre bomb in my face. Best believe I re watched that part.
Nice tutorial, Chris. Almost closed to my own method, except I mostly use lower water temperature.

james2614mc once you get into it you will know every outcome from different temperature, sometimes burnt taste comes out if the water is too hot
Thanks for watching guys! We find the best results with temperatures ranging from 195F - 202F
also coffee always tastes more bitter hot than when it's cooler.

It is easy to burn roasted coffee. Roasting green coffee is a completly different process.
excellent video! Had vigilante for the first time over the weekend and loved it!
That trey flip tho! Can we get a tutorial for how to stick one of those?
Liked for "if your coffee isn't degassing at home, [...] you should take it back to where you got it from and go get yourself a bag of Vigilante"
Nice how to!
Sir isn't that a v60 made coffee?? What's the difference btn the two?
Hey Ceasar, it's made on a Kalita Wave dripper. The difference is the Kalita wave is flat bottomed whereas the V60 Hario is cone shaped.
That tre flip tho
Quick Q: you indicated a fine grind, like sand, but I've seen others recommend a medium-coarse, similar to what would be used in a Chemex. Any reason for the difference in methods?
We just find the our coffees performing best at a slightly fine grind. Slightly coarser than your drip machine grind!
Thank you
Is a Kalita grind supposed to be finer than a V60? Always using a V60 but just got myself a Kalita Wave to mix it up!
Hey there! Kalita is actually a bit coarser because of the immersion pour over style of the kalita wave dripper
Can you make good V 60s with water from a Zero Water filter?
Catcher?? Think the correct term would be Server.
hello! super nice video! what coffee scale are you using here? :3 thank you!!
the Acaia scale, they're amazing!
@@VigilanteCoffee thank you!!! *wallet quivering in fear*
How many ml of water in each pour and whattime intervals are you using? Thanks

Te escribo de México, maravilloso video, muy explicativo y fácil de comprender para principiantes. Gracias por compartirlo. Saludos cordiales.
Muchas gracias Cornelio! Saludos!
Muchas gracias Cornelio! Saludos!
when he said "30 min"
Nice vid :) I preheat my mug with the filter rinsing water!
nice! way to save on water waste! We salute you!
Can Kalita 185’s fit in most catchers? Or does it have to be specific to the Kalita?
Anna Chandrakasem it will fit most catchers!
Super interesting!
What would be a recommended starting grind setting on baratza forte BG for the kalita wave thx
Try between levels 5-7 on the right side and mid weigh on the left side.

Awesome! Thanks for the video.
What setting do you guys use on virtuoso for kalita wave?
Myelin we aim for a medium grind overall. We're using fortes in this video and grind has the appearance of sand, hope this helps!
What kind of grinder are you using?
We're using a Baratza Fortè
may i use 40% robusta and 60% arabica to brew or i have to use 100% arabica?!?
Thanh Trúc Văn you can use any coffee you’d like! These directions will work for your purposes as well
thanks Vigilante Coffee. i tried it yesterday and its so delicious, i love it too much. Thank you very much
5:15
keep dat on repeat
what scale is that, ive seen it in other videos.
Thats the acai scale! really great scale, highly recommend
$185 Whew!
great video, might i ask what kettle were you using in this video ?
We're using the Kalita Wave 1L Kettle which can be found right here....www.kalita-usa.com/shop-1/kalita-wave-1l
@@VigilanteCoffee The link goes nowhere. Might wanna update it. Thanks
is there any actual ratio like 1 grams of coffee is equal to what amount of grams of water?
andrea cassar it really depends on the coffee. Your brew ratios should change depending on the coffee you use. A great general starting point is 22 grams of coffee to 330 grams of water. Go up or down in weight as your taste prefer

Not at all. I find your comment to be more irritating.
No, but you do.
