If you're in the mood for a coffee with a twist, the Lemongrass Gogulope might be just what you need. Inspired by the vibrant, citrusy notes of lemongrass, this pour-over recipe adds a refreshing touch of lemon peel directly into the coffee grounds, creating a bright and smooth brew that’s as revitalizing as it is caffeine-free.
Ingredients:
- 20 grams of ground decaf coffee (medium-fine grind)
- 300 grams of water (just below boiling, around 200°F)
- Fresh lemon peel
Instructions:
-
Prepare Your Pour-Over Setup: Place a filter in your dripper, rinse it with hot water, and discard the rinse water.
-
Add Coffee Grounds: Measure and add 20 grams of coffee to the dripper. Give it a gentle shake to level the grounds.
-
Add Lemon Peel: Place a piece of fresh lemon peel directly into the coffee grounds. The peel will infuse the coffee with citrus oils as it brews.
-
Bloom: Start by pouring a small amount of hot water (about 40 grams) over the grounds, making sure they’re evenly saturated. Allow the coffee to "bloom" for 30 seconds, releasing aromas and enhancing the final flavor.
-
Pour in Stages: Gradually add the remaining water in small circles over the grounds, pausing every 30 seconds until you’ve poured the full 300 grams.
-
Serve and Savor: Once brewing is complete, remove the lemon peel, pour your coffee, and enjoy!
Tasting Notes:
The Lemongrass Gogulope brings a hint of citrus brightness to each sip, infusing the coffee with a perfect balance of roasted undertones and refreshing lemon notes. It’s the ideal brew for an afternoon refresher or any time you crave a vibrant, satisfying cup without the caffeine!
