Here is a tentative translation of the Yasunaga-style coffee brewing method. The original Japanese text is copied from this page of the official site of Yasunaga Coffee Co., Ltd.
安永流珈琲のたて方の試訳です。原文は、ヤスナガコーヒ株式会社のオフィシャルサイトのこのページからコピーしました。
ドリップ法
1.コーヒー粉(一人分10g前後)をネルまたは、ペーパーに入れセットする
2.一度沸騰したお湯を70度まで下げてドリップを始める
3.一回目のドリップするお湯の量は、全体の三分の一をゆっくり注ぎ、ふたをして30秒待つ
4.二回目も中央から「の」の字にゆっくりとまわしながらドリップする。
その後、二回または三回にお湯を分けてドリップする
Dripping method:
1. Put ground coffee (around 10 g per serving) in a flannel or paper filter, and place it [in a dripper].
2. Bring water to a boil, and lower to 70oC (158oF).
3. Pour 1/3 of the water slowly, put on a lid, and wait for 30 seconds.
4. Pour the 2nd 1/3 of the water, starting at the center, slowly moving [the kettle spout] outward in a circular motion, as if to write the Japanese phonetic letter "の".
Pour the 3rd 1/3 of the water [in the same way?]
ポイント
*下ポットにドリップされたコーヒーは、「香りと味」が花にたとえますと、 つぼみ状態になっているのです。
*飲むときは、必要量だけを強く沸騰してください。
そうすることで、花が開いた状態になるのです。
*残したコーヒーは、夕方(長時間経過後)になって、煮沸かしても苦味のないおいしいコーヒーが飲めます。(香りは、減少する)
*コーヒーの一番高い香りが出てくる温度は、72度くらいといわれています。
Points:
* Aroma and flavor of the coffee, collected in the pot, are still in the bud.
* To drink the coffee, boil only the necessary amount violently.
By so doing, the aroma and flavor will bloom.
* The coffee will remain flavorful, free from bitterness, when boiled after kept for a long time. (The aroma will decrease.)
* It is said that you can get aroma from coffee the best at around 72oC (162oF).
Note: The original Japanese text is somewhat vague, and I had to make some modifications so that it could make sense in English.
注: 原文はちょっと曖昧なので、英語で意味が通じるよう少し修正しました。

Hi Hiroyuki, remember when you were having problems with snow on the roof in the winter? I just read this article about "Neverwet", which is a new product from the US. They say it can prevent snow and ice from accumulating on the roof. Please watch the youtube video, it looks pretty cool!
A: Thanks for introducing the product to me.
I watached three videos about the product. It looks like an impressive product, but unfortunately, I don't think I can apply it to my roof for several reasons, one of which is that my roof is a "snow-melting roof" (yuusetsu yane in Japanese), meaning that the snow that falls on the roof should be melted on the roof, not a "snow-falling roof" (rakusetsu yane in Japanese).
