It's better to have chawan, the bowl, and chasen, the bamboo whisk. Oskar can't say if it improves the taste but it definitely sets the mood.

Milk can be replaced with oat milk or other substitute. Sugar can be reduced.

Standard recipes recommend adding less milk (120 ml) and hotter water (80°C) but then drink becomes more bitter than we prefer.

## Pour-over coffee
21
What you MUST need:
22
- a pour-over dripper
23
- a filter
24
- a mug
25
What you need:
26
- a gooseneck kettle to control the water flow
27
When I first started to make pour-over coffee, I just used normal electric kettle. There are electric gooseneck kettle in the market which you can set the temperature too. It depends on how serious and how particular you are with your coffee.
28
- a scale
29
Use it or use your sixth sense.
30
- a coffee grinder
31
You can skip this and buy grinded/ground coffee, but I recommend you to buy the grind in small pack and finish them fast! (in 2 weeks, sometimes I do 1 month). Seal the vent on the coffee package, if there is any.

The aroma of coffee disperses very fast after the bean is grinded. That's why ideally, it's better to grind the beans before brewing it. There are manual and electrical grinder, choose the ones which you can adjust the level so that you can play with the coarseness to experiment different tastes.

*My pouring setting. Everything except the coffee is less than RM30. Got the kettle from my brother's friend.*

How to pour
42
1. Place mug on scale and dripper on the mug. Insert paper filter on the dripper, rinse it with hot water to remove the paper taste and preheat the vessel. Discard the rinse water.
43
2. Add 15 grams of grounded coffee to the filter. Tare your scale to zero.
44
3. Start timer. Gently pour 30-40 grams of hot water (90-95°C) over the grounds.Let it sit for 30-45 seconds. You'll see the coffee bed bubble as it releases CO2 (only for fresh grounded coffee).
45
4. Continue pouring the water in slow, steady circles, moving from center to outwards. Do not pour directly on the filter walls. Add water in stages until you reaches 250 grams.
46
5. Total brew time should be around 2:30-3:30 minutes.

This is a guide Oskar found on internet and Tzeyu finds useful. We sometimes adjust the brewing time when we want to achieve different tastes. For example, for coffee beans that taste bitter, we reduce the brewing time to 2 minutes.
