The ice counts as part of the brew water, so only 480g goes through the bed.

205F beat 203F: the shorter brew loses more heat per gram.

The long drawdown at 3.0 extracts past the bright zone into sweetness: roast forward, no acidity, some sweetness.

Keeps about 24 hours sealed in the fridge (the Chemex glass lid works).
