rate for your coffee.
The Modbar Pour-Over gives customers the
option to adjust the rate at which water is
dispensed onto the coffee bed with a needle
valve at the back side of the machine (on the
right hand side if you're looking at the front of
the module).
The key to success with the adjustable flow rate
is to stabilize incoming water pressure and flow
rate. Water supply flow rate and pressure will
affect dispensing and can create inconsistencies
in the flow rate at the tap. Adding pressure
regulators or expansion tanks to achieve 35-70
psi coming into each module is recommended.
Your flow rate will vary based on your brew
method and recipe, but a shortcut to get you in
the right ballpark is to use a medium-high flow
rate with the single hole dispensing tip and a
medium-low flow rate with the spray nozzle.
