Overview
Diguo builds this siphon around a balance arm, heat-resistant glass flasks and an alcohol burner. A wooden base and a rose gold frame give it a retro look, and the arm lifts the vacuum flask over the flame.
It is a theatrical way to brew, using vapor pressure and a cloth filter. The kit includes a measuring spoon and a glass tumbler. The limit is the open flame, the extra fuel, and a learning curve.
Who it's for
Home and office brewers who enjoy a retro, manual method. Those who want speed, a dishwasher-safe pot or no open flame should choose a drip machine.
Pros and cons
- Distinctive retro rose gold design
- Reusable cloth filter
- Measuring spoon and tumbler included
- Heat-resistant glass flasks
- Fuel not included
- Not dishwasher safe
- Open flame needs attention
- Learning curve for first brews
Performance notes
Heat from the burner pushes water up into the brewing flask, and the grounds steep before the flame is removed and the brew drains back. Grind size and heat time govern strength. The tight seal of the stoppers is what lets the vacuum form.
