when the water has risen from the bottom to the top, reduce the heat so that the bubbles which are forming in the upper chamber are as small as possible. if you have a thermometer, you want to stabilize the water in the upper chamber to be 90o – 91o C

when all the coffee has settled into the lower vessel, carefully remove the top chamber, give it a good tap to loosen the grounds and send it into your compost. remember to thoroughly rinse your cloth filter and store it in a container filled with water in your fridge.
