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

I ordered two different pour-overs to replace one that broke and had gone up in price. Both had good independent reviews. THIS POUR-OVER PRODUCES THE BEST FLAVOR of any single cup system I have tried. It is as good as Chemex and better for a single cup.This has a 3 hole partially flat bottom. The three hole system holds the water just long enough to bring out the flavor. The other I tried was reverse pyramidal. It was less consistent and the wet cone protruded from the hole, sometimes into the coffee.I use this with standard #4 store drip filters, Melitta or other. Works just fine.

I own a V60 and Melitta drippers and put off getting a Kalita Wave for a while but decided to buy it now since it was on sale. So far I am really enjoying this pour over! from the week that I have tested it out, it was has made consistent well balanced cups of coffee. Definitely glad I bought this and will probably be rotating between this and the V60 since I think they both make different but good cups.Pros:- Makes good consistent cups of coffee- Looks niceCons:- Kalita wave filters are expensive- I noticed sometimes coffee doesn't drip from all 3 holes

Excelente pour over. Hasta ahora resistente, fácil de limpiar y cumple con su trabajo, a diferencia de la cerámica, el calor sí se disipa considerablemente más rápido, sin embargo, cumple cabalmente su propósito.

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.

Wollte mir schon länger einen Kalita holen und habs dann endlich gemacht. Der Glas Dripper sieht auch super aus. Für den Preis finde ich aber, dass er sich etwas billig anfühlt und man kaum merkt, dass es wirklich Glas ist. Ich kann mir nur sicher sein, dass er aus Glas ist, weil er mit gesplittertem Griff angekommen ist. Das zusammen mit der extrem langen Lieferzeit und dem ist dann schon sehr ärgerlich
