tasting notes

Like Summer, hot and heavy, sticky sweet, orange cream popsicles, chlorine, sunscreen, dancing in the dark, sweating with strangers, falling in love, fireworks because it's Tuesday, Juneteenth, Pride, sand in your hair but it was worth it, the heat island effect, a bird, a bogey, par for the course, jump in the fountain—all over ice.

Coffee over ice. Every way you can imagine.

brewing instructions

These brew instructions, like our other recipes, are specifically for a Kalita Wave 185 pour over. But they should work with most pour over devices.

RECIPE

  • 22 g   Like Summer · Ode Gen 2 setting 4
  • 130 g   ice — in the server, before brewing
  • 220 g   filtered water, 96 °C / 205 °F

BUILD

1.  Rinse the Kalita 185 filter with hot water. Discard the rinse — do not let it hit your ice.

2.  Place the empty dripper on the server. Drop 130 g of clear ice into the server below. Filter back in the dripper. 22 g coffee in. Tap level.

3.  Bloom: pour to 60 g. Swirl gently. Wait 45 seconds.

4.  Pour to 150 g in slow concentric circles. Reach 150 g at the 1:30 mark.

5.  Pour to 220 g, finishing slowly toward the center. Drawdown completes around 2:30 – 3:00 total.

6.  Swirl the server to dissolve any remaining ice. Pour over a single large clear cube in a rocks glass. Serve immediately.

NOTES

Japanese iced peaks in the first three minutes. It holds for about an hour, but the aromatics fade fast.

If the drawdown finishes before 2:30, the grind is too coarse — go one click finer. If it's past 3:30, go one click coarser.

96 °C is the upper end. Lower (92–94 °C) gives a sweeter, less aromatic cup — fine, just different.
