Pour-over brewing highlights precise water control, allowing extraction of nuanced coffee flavors. Use freshly ground beans and maintain water temperature between 195°F and 205°F for optimal results.
For tea, steeping time and water temperature vary by type: green teas require lower temperatures and shorter steeping, while black teas benefit from higher heat and longer infusion. Adjust these variables to balance bitterness and aroma.
