Gooseneck kettle

What it is and what sets it apart: Gooseneck is not just looks: it limits flow for precise circles. Differs from wide-mouth kettles.

What it’s for and how to use it: Fill → set temp → bloom and pulse with steady flow. Pair with scale and timer.

Cup impact or benefit: Better bed saturation, less wall erosion. Repeatable pour profiles.

Technical notes: Spout/flow balance matters.

Common mistakes: Buying gooseneck without temp control then blaming coffee. Always max flow.
