Review on ☕ Kavako Stainless Steel Pour Over Coffee Dripper: Paperless, Reusable Filter for Osaka, Chemex, Hario, Bodum and More by Stephanie Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It works out. how. in coffee machines Pour Over

I bought this as an eco-friendly alternative to my constant paper filter purchases, thinking it would fit in my Hario V60 2 drip coffee cup. It fits and pours, but because of the thick lid at the bottom of the cone it doesn't filter through, Coffee drips to the side. If the ceramic mug is directly above the cup being poured, that's not too much of a problem, although you won't be able to see how much coffee you're pouring unless you have a see-through cup. The problem is when I make more than one cup of coffee and use the drip into carafe method. The Hario system typically involves placing a ceramic mug on a plastic holder and underneath is a decanter with a mesh stand to catch accidental drips. When you use this filter in this system with the thick lid and drippers you have to be careful that the drips actually end up in the carafe or they will fly straight out to the side. I've had two or three accidents when I wasn't paying close attention to the pouring as the drips went everywhere except the carafe. So it works. I'd rather have my coffee in my cup than on my counter.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Damaged
