Pull & Pour presents Manhattan's 2026 framework for various coffees, rather than one identified origin. Use fifteen grams of medium-fine grounds in a filter pour-over setup with 250 grams of 98.9°C water. The source mentions 22 Comandante clicks as its own reference. Place the brewer, filter and coffee on the scale and tare before starting.
Start the timer with the first water contact and gently add 70 grams centrally in a slow circular motion. When nearly drained, around 0:30, add 100 grams in circles to 170, including all grounds. When halfway drained, around 1:00, add the remaining 80 grams to 250. At another half-drainage point, softly swirl and allow completion around 3:00.
The notes suggest 80–100ppm brewing-water mineral content and a beverage TDS target around 1.4–1.5%. Ppm is not water density, and TDS is not itself refractive index despite the source's loose wording. Those targets require suitable measurement. BeanScene has not independently verified the framework across every Manhattan offering.
