The starter pack was a perfect way to venture into roasted cacao. We have used the filter cone in our pour over brewer and then started steeping the Crio Bru in our 2.5cup measuring cup (about 4Tbs grounds and 16oz of freshly boiled water), I steep for about 8-10 minutes, stirring every few minutes and then empty it into my cup through our pour over with the gold tone cone filter. Flavor is stronger With the longer steep and clean up is super easy!
