Prep
Fold the filter along the bonded seams and insert into the Clever brewer. Rinse the filter with hot water. Leaving the filter in place, discard the water.

Grind
Weigh out 20 grams (about 2 rounded tablespoons) of whole beans. Grind the beans to a medium-coarse consistency.

Settle
Pour the ground coffee into the filter, giving a gentle shake to settle the grounds. Place the Clever onto your scale and tare to ‘0 grams.’

Pour
Allow your water to reach a boil, and then wait 45-60 seconds. Start a timer. Carefully pour 300 grams (10 oz) of brewing water over the grounds. Let stand for 30 seconds, allowing the coffee to absorb the water. Give a quick, gentle stir to evenly immerse the grounds into the brew. Cover the Clever with its lid.

Brew
At 2 minutes, set the Clever atop a mug to release the brew. This process should take about 1-1:30 minutes.
