great review--they are calling them anti-clog to highlight the problem that sometimes happens with the Kalita when the wet paper forms a seal with all three holes and slows drainage. It is why some people put a screen (suggested by Scott Rao) between the filter paper and the bottom of the dripper.

For me the weak link in pour over is the glass carafe, regardless of which method you use. For my Moccamaster KBGV Select I immediately pour the coffee into a 1 liter Alfi Hotello carafe. After years of using an Alfi Juwel, the Hotello was a bit of a revelation because there's no glass thermal chamber inside to break, and no rubber seal at all around the lid. The lid is about 1" high and hollow and keeps the coffee hot for over 90 minutes. I liked this so much and got so tired of feeling like I had to rush my pour over coffee drinking before it got cold that I bought another l6 liter version of the Alfi Hotello carafe and now I do the pour over coffee directly into the Hotello (setting a Kalita dripper over the hotello on the scale instead of a glass carafe). You can't do this visually, you need to use a scale, but if you have a scale it works great, and that way I can drink the pour over at my leisure without it getting too cold too fast.

Hi I would just like to point out that the gasket under the Stagg X has these ridges that I believe are meant for air to escape/be pushed through during brewer so a carafe/decanter with a spout may not be necessary.

I'm using a Niche Zero grinder. For Espresso I'm at a dial setting of 15, at a setting of 45 I'm still finding fairy slow flow on the XF (taking almost 5 minutes for all the water to drain through). Wondering if I'm doing something wrong, or if I should still be grinding even coarser? Cups actually seem a bit watery despite the slow extraction, worried that will taste under extracted if I go even coarser...

Nice review. I'm interested in this and the Espro Bloom, but can't bring myself to spend over double the price on filters as good Cafec V60 papers. I'm sure that's in their business model, but overall I think they lose out on more customers/money going this way.

Love this video! I know this might be a weird question, but how can I tweak the ratio for the end result to taste closer to an espresso (I like adding milk to my coffee so would like it to be a little bit denser and stronger)?
@workshopcoffee9001
@workshopcoffee9001 3 жыл бұрын
Great question, Kimi. You won’t be able to get anywhere near the concentration and strength of an espresso, but if you want to brew a denser and stronger cup then here are some things we’d advise: Use a more developed roast (our espresso roasts for example are suited to espresso, milk drinks and fuller bodied filter brewing) and updose your ratio from around 60g per litre to closer to 75g per litre, so that would be 30g to 400g water instead of 24g as recommended above. To avoid under-extracting when using a higher dose you should also grind a couple of steps finer. The resulting cup should be stronger with a greater intensity of flavour that will stand out and cut through milk better. We hope that helps somewhat!

Great recipe and video- your suggestion of 50ml at a time definitely allows a more even extraction with this brewer in particular creating a very sweet and rounded profile- I don’t think the height of the XF offers any advantages vs the X because you would follow a similar brew method and produce the same results. Therefore I’d recommend going for the smaller Stagg X if deciding between the 2.
