Our verdict

A six-cup manual pour-over brewer in borosilicate glass for people who want control over how the coffee is made. It needs paper filters and a separate way to heat water, and the listing is thin on detail.

ASIN: B0000YWF5ECategory: Pour Over Coffee Makers

Overview

Pouring hot water over loose grounds in a paper filter is the whole method here, and the glass carafe collects the brew below. The Classic Series body is borosilicate glass with no electronics.

Pour-over brewing hands the grind, water temperature and pace to you, and a glass body is easy to clean. The limitation is that nothing is automatic, and the listing gives no filter size or lid details.

Who it's for

A kitchen counter where brewing is part of the morning routine suits this setup, as long as a kettle is on hand. Those who want coffee made while they do something else should look at a drip machine.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Borosilicate glass construction
  • Manual control over the brew
  • No electronics to fail
  • Clear body shows the brew level
Cons
  • Filter size not listed
  • Needs a separate kettle for hot water
  • Glass needs careful handling

Performance notes

Hot water poured over loose grounds drains through a paper filter into the glass carafe, so grind size, water temperature and pouring pace decide the cup. The paper filter holds back sediment. With no heater built in, everything depends on the water you bring.
