Vac Pot Coffee Introduction: During vs. After upkick
Does anyone have a solid philosophy on when the coffee is introduced? I've been thinking that, since brewing is largely about temp stability, there needs to be a stabilizing period where the temp hovers in that acceptable 197-203 range. The upkick seems to happen about 190 or so. any thoughts?

I'm a beginner vac-pot brewer - have done several batches but never optimized a procedure. The tip I've used about this is to leave the upper globe loose, with coffee in it, until the little bubbles start to form down below. This delays upkick until the temp is around 200 where you want it to be. Not sure where I ran across that tip, but would like to find it again, as there were other useful nuggets there as well.
