followed by random swirling

I've always struggled with the V60 and I think this, along with differences in filter paper stock, is a big part of it. Agitation of the grounds can cause fines to migrate downwards and clog the pores of the filter, stalling the drawdown. Brewing with decaf, which is even more prone to generating fines, exacerbates the problem.

I used to do all the faff with staggered pours, controlled swirling yadda yadda, but nowadays I try to minimise complexity and focus on the basics. Gives me less headache in the morning :)
But the new grinder is certainly a good opportunity to reset and question everything, haha
