CATRACHA BREW RECIPE
WILDERNESS VERSION:
Fill the grinder once.
45 seconds off the boil for your temperature. At 1700M/5000FT or above, skip the waiting and brew immediately.
Four pours with the first being slightly smaller to fill a 12oz insulated mug.
In colder weather, abandon any waiting and brew swiftly filling the brewer as high as you can until the mug is full. Cap it and let the remaining coffee drip into a second cup, sometimes called the desperation cup.
HOME & CABIN VERSION
Weigh and grind 21G
Brew water temp 96C/205F on your digital kettle.
Pour recipe: 60G first pour, wait 45 seconds, 90G second, third and fourth pour until dripped through each time.
