Beans: 30g
Extraction amount: 250ml
Pouring amount: 500ml

The key is to let it steam thoroughly.
To fully enjoy the [ SL28 ], you need to bring out its richness while also balancing it with the acidity.
To achieve this, it's ideal to fully bring out the flavor.
By allowing a longer steeping time, the flavors are extracted slowly, making it easier to fully bring out the aroma.
What did you think?
The recipes I've shared here vary depending on the brand, but it would also be interesting to brew all three brands using the same method and compare the tastes. Alternatively, you could try brewing one brand using different methods to enjoy the differences in brewing techniques.
We will continue to release various tasting sets, so please look forward to them!
