Step by step

Put the paper filter in the dripper, rinse it with hot water and pour that water away.
Add the coffee, shake it level and set everything on a scale.
Pour 40 ml of water to wet all the coffee and wait 30 to 45 seconds.
Pour the rest slowly in circles, in two or three parts, up to 250 g.
It should finish dripping at about 3 minutes. Slower? Grind coarser. Faster? Grind finer.
