/wp:paragraph wp:paragraphI'm Simen Andersen, I've worked in coffee for about two years, but been a coffee geek for many more! I started competing as we had a culture for it at Neongrut (currently 3 reigning Norwegian champs). As I prepared for the regionals I learnt so much about coffee and that, along with the community is what makes competing real fun!
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph /wp:paragraph wp:paragraphWhy did you choose the Sibarist filters for the brewer’s cup championship?
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraphSibarist + hario switch = love. Paired with the switch you get complete control over your brew with the sibarist filters. I found a recipe for the regionals that i altered for the nationals that kept the fruit and got rid of the ferment in a coffee I found a little too funky for a championship, I had full control over the brew and managed to score 10 in uniformity in the regionals because of this.
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph /wp:paragraph wp:paragraphCould you describe the recipe and coffee used? And what’s the reason of the set up?
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraphThe recipe I really like and used in a couple of championships is one that works wonders with a highly fermented coffee. = is open switch, < is closed switch.
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph17g to 240
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph0:00 < pour 50g
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph0:40 = pour up to 150g
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph1:15 < pour up to 240g
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph1:50 = (open)
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph2:00 < (close right before the water touches the grounds)

Any comment or tip about how to use the Sibarist filters?
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraphAs mentioned I really enjoy them when brewing more fermented coffees, to make sure i can control every aspect. with the switch theres endless ways to use the sibarist. but listen to the coffee and what it needs. I altered this recipe by soaking the grounds for 15 more seconds in the end (last pour starting at 1:10, open the switch at 2:00) to fit the coffee i was brewing that time.
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraphThe easy way to utilize the switch and Sibarists are a full immersion for a set amout of time, and as you open it, it drains quickly and almost always gives you a decent brew.
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraph /wp:paragraph wp:paragraphWhat the Sibarist filters can add to your brew?
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraphFlexibility, control and silkyness.
/wp:paragraph wp:paragraphI feel the sibarist filters can add a silky mouthfeel to the cup.
The sibarist filters are also always the same high quality and will therefore always act the same way.
Any other comment that you could consider useful for coffee lovers, fans, people with the aim to improve recipes and reach for the best extraction?
