This is an easy recipe using volume measurements (no scale needed).
Recipe for 8 oz (236 mL)
Equipment
- pour over dripper
- coffee filter
- kettle
- grinder for herbs and coffee (you can use the same one or use two different grinders, and the type of grinder you use is your preference)
- mug
Ingredients
- 2-2.5 tbsp of ground coffee
- 1 heaping tsp of whole lavender buds
- 8 oz of water
Instructions
- Grind the lavender buds so they release the oil a bit. It doesn’t need to be a powder, just break up the buds.
- Set your water to heat up to 200 F (93-94 C). *
- Grind your coffee medium to medium-fine.
- Place the coffee filter in the dripper.
- Put your ground coffee and lavender in the filter.
- When the water is at the correct temperature, pour it over the grounds, slowly in a spiral motion beginning at the center.
- Allow time for the water to filter through the grounds once entirely before continuing.
- After the first spiral of water has filtered through, pour the remaining water over the grounds continuously until the kettle is depleted.
- Once all the water has filtered through, it should be dripping very slowly. You can now remove the dripper and enjoy your lavender infused coffee, or share it with someone.
*If you don’t have an electric kettle, get it to a rolling boil then wait about 30 seconds for it to cool while swishing it a little.
