What’s your definition of “proper”? You get a different flavor profile if you vary the water temperature. My favorite for single origin light roasts is very fine grind, not too much 170–180° water, and short steep time. It requires somewhat more beans to get strong coffee compared to a brew using more, hotter water and a long steep time, but the resulting cup of coffee is much tastier IMO.
