Filter Brewing: Explained

Learn why your coffee tastes the way it does. A hands-on class covering brew fundamentals — no experience needed, just curiosity

Filter brewing is one of the most honest ways to experience coffee — and one of the easiest to get wrong. In this 2-2.5-hour class, we break down what's actually happening in the cup: how grind size, water, ratio, and brew time work together to shape flavor. You'll taste the difference, learn to adjust with intention, and walk away with a framework that works whether you're using a Chemex at home or ordering off a menu.

No barista experience needed. Just bring your curiosity.

What we'll cover:

• Why your coffee tastes the way it does
• How grind, ratio, and water shape the cup
• The difference between brew methods and when to use them
• How to identify and fix a "bad" cup
• How to dial in at home
