Do you pour out what has dripped through after you bloom or keep it? The best cup I've ever made myself I poured out the contents. I recently changed back to keeping the bloom and can't really decide if there is a difference in cleanliness of the cup. It definitely seems to add a thickness to the flavor. I remember seeing one video a while back where the user poured it out but most I see keep the bloom contents.

I use a Kalita wave. I bloom for 45 seconds. I usually pour out around 35 seconds.
