Japanese Ceramic Coffee Filter Dripper, Reusable, Arita Porcelain

Product Information

A professional roaster/barista associate of Daily Coffee News did observe a difference in flavor in the cup when comparing a Kyuemon porous ceramic filter to its more familiar counterparts. The OXO Pour-Over Coffee Maker with Water Tank has a unique design that allows you to make pour-over coffee without any of the fuss that’s usually essential to the brewing method. Three 6 mm holes in the base of the filter enable the hot water to pass through the coffee grounds at a rate that produces a smooth and flavoursome drink that’s visibly clear and free of unwanted sediments. In part that’s thanks to its flat-bottomed design, which promotes more even water drainage, making it easier even for beginners to get consistent results. This realization inspired H Concept to venture into producing porous ceramic coffee filters, resulting in introducing the Cerapotta and other innovative brewing tools.

Batch size: Due to the slow draw down and potential for clogging, the ceramic filter is best used to make one cup at a time. According to twentytwentyone, a popular brand of the product, coarse grounds also produce the best tasting coffee. The combination of its flat-bottom and conical shape ensures even water distribution and optimal extraction, resulting in a well-balanced and flavorful cup of coffee. Whether it’s finding great products or discovering helpful advice, we’ll help you get it right (the first time). Whether you're just getting started with brewing filter coffee at home, are looking to upgrade your kit or simply need some more filters - Hario's got you covered.With an increasing interest in sustainability, and the availability of these filters now beyond Japan, they are experiencing a renewed popularity. We brewed multiple batches with each dripper, usually weighing each pour to ensure the most exact brewing process.

But once you’ve got the right gear and method, pour-over is a simple, inexpensive, and fun way to make the best-tasting coffee.The fine 5-micron pores of the filter allow for thorough filtration while preserving the coffee's natural oils and aromatic compounds, enhancing the overall sensory experience. Flow Rate: Ceramic filters can have a slower flow rate compared to paper filters, especially if the pore size is very small. Its durability, easy maintenance, and environmentally friendly design, the Cerapotta is a testament to H Concept's commitment to craftsmanship and sustainability. However, with the slow draw down, there’s potential for the coffee to get over extracted and bitter toward the end.

The Cerapotta opens up a world of possibilities, allowing coffee lovers to explore new depths of flavor and aroma in their quest for the perfect cup of coffee. The Chemex really brought out satisfying dark chocolate notes without our having to increase the coffee dose, and though the coffee’s flavors lingered a little more on the palate, the finish was still smooth. But after testing drippers made from all four materials, we think most people wouldn’t notice the difference. If you want a dripper that uses widely available filters, we recommend the Bee House Ceramic Coffee Dripper (large). In terms of performance, using a ratio of 25 grams of coffee to 400 milliliters of water, with beans ground to Chemex-style medium-coarseness, extraction time averaged between three and four minutes, which is on par with other more conventional filter types.The Hario brewed good to great coffee for most tests, though the Kalita retained an edge when it came to brewing the most nuanced, best-tasting cups. It brewed less-complex coffee than our other picks, but it’s the most convenient option for beginners who just want a simple way to brew a cup. A lower dose and slightly cooler water for the Gatuyaini made sense because single origins often are more delicate and temperamental, and they taste better when not over-concentrated.

We brewed the most outstanding cups of both the Bella Donovan and the Gatuyaini on the Kalita, capturing abundant notes of tart and juicy plum, dark chocolate, citrus, and hints of melon. The Kalita Wave 185 Dripper is easy to use and consistently makes great-tasting coffee, capturing the more nuanced flavors of your beans. But considering the Kalita’s frequently great results, we think this is more a matter of perception than an actual drawback in the Kalita’s design.Its porous ceramic filter is at the heart of the Cerapotta, made using the esteemed Hasami porcelain manufacturing techniques. The Hario V-60 Coffee Dripper (Size 02) has an iconic design and brews tasty, dynamic coffee that’s on a par with coffee brewed by the Kalita Wave.
