180 was deffo too much then. Whole bean not ground? Is that because it's not necessary because it's soaking? I'm thinking of comparison with how you toast chilies, then soak and then puree.
Just easier to deal with whole bean. If you grind the surface area increases dramatically and so you must reduce the steep time.
you must reduce the steep time.
So what are the steep times between course brew and whole bean? Bearing in mind I've just bought the Iwaki due to your recommendation.
