Kalita Wave Dripper 185 series glass [2-4] people for Black # 05039 (japan import)

👌🏻

I’ve used it a few times using Jamaican Blue Mountain and following traditional pour over technique and this delivers a clean, crisp strong cup of coffee with a solid crema with no bitterness. The flavors just sing. Far superior to French press or aero press or other single serve methods.

Recomendo

With a bit of experimentation (grinding coarser than I’d have thought plus slightly less hot water than I’d have thought @ 85C) I’m able to consistently brew sweet, rounded coffee with no bitterness or sourness. It’s more forgiving than a V60 and in my view brews a better cup of coffee most of the time. The heat retention on the glass is very good - perhaps because the glass is so thin, it heats up faster and so helps make a good cup of coffee. The price for the system is excellent and when combined with cheap and widely available filters makes for a very affordable way to make coffee. You might not think the filters point adds up to much: but hear me out. My previous brewer was a Fellow Stagg, and filters for that cannot now be had for anything like a reasonable price (currently £18.99 for 30 filters - ridiculous). It’s a huge point in Kalita’s favour that filters for this Wave 185 system are orders of magnitude more affordable and you can get them in many places. The cost per cup will be that much lower - you can put that money back into good beans. Other things to note: It’s easy to clean (dishwasher or hand soap), the filters are widely available, and it’s a nice looking thing too. The glass is thinner and probably more delicate than I’d have expected but seems to have held up so far.
