Pour over coffee can seem intimidating at first, unusual looking tools and very specific methods. It’s very hands-on, you have to pour water a special way, however the ritual of the pour over is like a meditation: There’s no machine in your way, no flashing green lights, no electric power cords.
Just you and a few simple tools.
But first, you really need to learn the water pouring technique. Here’s what the technique offers; more balanced extraction of flavor and a richer, ‘cleaner’ flavor.
We here to help you master your pouring technique, so your coffee doent end up imbalanced, being either too bitter or too sour.
The Cup
A classic now in modern coffee, the cup has many names – notably V60 is the standard for a cone-shaped pour over dripper. Its spiraled ridges inside of the brewer promote even extraction through the entire bed of coffee, and its availability in 5 different material options (glass, ceramic, plastic, copper, and steel), 3 different sizes (01, 02 and 03, intended for approximately 350ml, 600ml, and 1L brews respectively), and loads of colors means that you can find a brewer that works (and looks) perfect for you.
The Chemex
Arguably the most classic piece of brewing equipment still available today, the Chemex marries science and design with its unibody borosilicate glass brew cone and decanter. Available in 3, 6, 8, and 10 cup sizes, detailed with either a sleek glass handle or a light colored wooden collar the Chemex does well at giving you enough variety without getting in the way of the simplicity that has sustained the brewer for three-quarters of a century.
