Review on Reusable Stainless Steel Pour Over Coffee Cone with Cup Stand - Paperless ☕ and Fine Mesh Filter - BONUS: Coffee Scooping Spoon + Cleaning Brush - [1-4 Cup] by Antoine Collins

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ah, the results, my dear, the results!

This is a sturdy little device made of stainless steel, it's all about a light touch. But more importantly, how good is the coffee produced? A few months ago we had the pleasure of spotting the pourover phenomenon on a trip to Pike Place Market in Seattle. The taste of the coffee was so rich and interesting that on some level we knew this was the mode to use at home. At the same time, I wanted something that was small enough that we could take it with us to Europe or elsewhere in a suitcase and that was worth the small footprint. Enter this small cone dripper from YTI Sales. If you watch enough instructional videos on YouTube, weed out the stupid ones and put the obsessive ones aside, and practice along the way, you'll master the fill technique. I have had no issues with this particular product and am truly grateful that I found it. This is a good place to put some admonitions about the process here. Unfortunately, there's too much wiggle room for lateral behavior if you want to get acceptable results. Coffee refined to the consistency of body powder won't work as well as you'd like, on the contrary it clogs the work: you have to dance the dance the pour-over device gives you, not your own invention. An espresso grind or a Turkish (aaah!) grind will not work. Also consider time, temperature and pouring speed. There is a kind of Tao in all of this. So see instructions. Read encouraging instructions from the people who make the process work. And enjoy, just enjoy.]
