IAC 2023 - Delhi winning recipe

Championship
Creator:Arne Jach
The winning recipe for the Delhi round of the 2023 Indian Aeropress Championship

Following the competition rules:
max 18 g of coffee
min 150 ml liquid
max 5 min total including grinding

The coffee was the same for all contestants. "Caarabi roasters: Barbara Estate - Pineapple Fermentation" which was made available 1 week prior to the event.

Very interesting coffee, but I found it had a distinct bitter/harsh aftertaste that I did not enjoy too much. That is why I went for low temperature, short time and low agitation. Worked pretty well I think :)
