April Coffee Roasters' base recipe for their Hybrid Brewer: 14 g to 240 g in three ten-second pours, with the valve opened, closed, then opened again.

  1. 0:00open the valve; pour 40 g in a circle40 g
  2. 0:40close the valve; pour 100 g — 60 g in a circle and 40 g in the centre140 g
  3. 1:20open the valve; pour 100 g — 60 g in a circle and 40 g in the centre240 g

The Hybrid Brewer's valve is opened for the first pour, closed for the second and opened again for the third — the immersion window is what the closed valve buys. April state no water temperature for this recipe and give no finish time, only a ceiling: adjust the grind so the brew runs no longer than 3:00. Their filter recipes are dialled on a Mahlkönig EK43, though no setting is published for this one.
