Slow down
Learning to disconnect, slowing down the pace... Did you say "Slow Life"? And why not "slow coffee"? Also known as "pour-over methods", pour-over coffee is the return of an ancestral way of preparing coffee, based on a slow preparation ritual, where the method allows you to enhance an aromatic profile and where the coffee beans tell you about their story.
There's nothing like a Chemex or a French Press to start your day. But there are a few rules to follow: get the right water to coffee ratios for a balanced extraction, use filtered water and adjusted temperature, or adapt your recipe according to the colour of the roast and the pour-over method used.
The size of the grind is also important. With an AeroPress, you can use any grind you like, but with a Chemex, a French press or a V60, you should use a medium or even fine grind.
By the way, the V60 is a Japanese dripper (a filter holder), which takes its name from its conical shape: the cone forms a 60° angle. This drink will delight fans of very light to light roasts, while enhancing the floral and fruity notes of your coffee beans.
For the latter, opt for a specialty coffee. These gourmet coffees, with no defects in the cup and rated above 80/100, will particularly enhance your pour-over coffee recipes. More history, more terroir: this is the certainty of a cup that reveals the full aromatic profile of the bean, while guaranteeing fairer compensation for the producers and the traceability of the product.

Pour-over coffee is a method of preparing coffee that is part of the Slow Food movement. It aims to give priority to a quality, fair and sustainable product while offering an incomparable taste experience. The Pour-Over Coffee movement originated in Italy and has since spread throughout Europe and the rest of the world.
The first principle of pour-over coffee is to take the time to prepare the coffee, using a traditional and ancestral method, to get the best taste. This method consists of grinding the coffee beans with a manual coffee grinder, for example, and brewing the coffee using a gentle and slow method, such as a vacuum coffee maker, an Italian coffee maker, a piston coffee maker or a chemex coffee maker.
Pour-over coffee is a way to enjoy quality, fair trade and sustainable coffee. By opting for a slow and gentle brewing method, you can achieve a coffee that is rich in taste and aroma, with a more delicate body and milder flavour.
Pour-over coffee is also a more sustainable option. It saves water and energy consumption. In addition, by choosing a slow and gentle brewing method, you can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help protect the environment.
Finally, pour-over coffee is an excellent way to support sustainable and fair farming. By choosing Fair Trade certified coffee beans, you can contribute to the protection of farmers' rights and a fair and sustainable supply chain.
The quality and taste of coffee depends to a large extent on the coffee beans used. It is therefore important to choose high quality coffee beans. You can also choose Fair Trade, organic and sustainable certified coffee beans to support sustainable and fair trade agriculture.
In addition, choose coffee beans that match your brewing method. For example, the coffee beans for a French Press should be coarser than those for a coffee filter. Finally, remember that coffee has a limited shelf life.
So buy coffee beans in small quantities and use them quickly to enjoy their full flavour.
To brew a quality cup of pour-over coffee, here are the steps recommended by the MaxiCoffee experts:
