How is our competition different?
The Delter Brewing Championship offers a completely unique competition experience.
Our championship references the new, innovative benchmark for specialty coffee - the Coffee Character Wheel.
The Coffee Character Wheel was developed in partnership between Danny Andrade (WCE judge) of Processing Methods Bootcamp, the Southern Cross University and AgriFutures.
The format of the competition is simple - spin the coffee character wheel, and brew your coffee to highlight the characteristic that the Judges will be looking for!
About the Delter Press.
The Delter Press was designed in Brisbane, Australia, by Mark Folker, in order to resolve issues with brewing inconsistencies resulting from the immersion brewing process.
The result was the first 'injection method' brewer of its kind. The Delter Press has become known to produce a clean, bright coffee with more consistency than what a traditional immersion brewer can offer.
The Delter Press was funded on Kickstarter, and has always been manufactured from crystal clear, shatterproof Tritan™ since first production in 2018.
Some brew guide basics to get you started..
-
1. Prep.
It all starts with fresh coffee.
Dose 12 grams of coffee per 200mL of water.
Grind finer than french press, but coarser than espresso.
Rinse your filter, add ground coffee, twist on filter cap, then place on cup.
-
2. Pour.
Filtered water recommended.
Pour to the 200mL "Fill" line (if plunger is inserted).
Heat water to 94 degrees C for best results. Water off the boil is fine.
Place the Doser on top of the plunger after pouring to prevent heat from escaping.
-
3. Press.
Press slowly for stronger coffee.
Raise the plunger to allow water through the seal to your desired volume.
Never press firmly and adjust grind to be coarser if you experience resistance while pressing.
Aim for a brew time of around 2-3 minutes.
