Pour Overs
Chemex and Kalita are two classic styles of pour overs. The Chemex is known for its hourglass shape, which makes it easier to keep the heat while brewing your coffee. The Kalita, on the other hand, has a flat bottom design that ensures an even extraction with every cup. Both chemex and kalita make excellent coffee makers for people who want to enjoy their coffee in peace. However, chemex requires more practice than the kalita as each pour over will vary depending on how much grinds you use and how long you wait between pours. Ultimately, chemex delivers a clean cup of coffee with subtle flavor and aroma whereas the kalita produces a slightly sweeter cup but with bolder
These brown stained ceramic Kalita's pour overs are easy to spot all over the Kissatens of Tokyo, home to some of the world's greatest coffee makers. Kalita's pour overs are crafted with Japanese precision and finesse, offer an easy way to make great-tasting cups of coffee in the comfort of your own home. The Kalita Wave represents the next generation from the brand, made from aluminum with a circular bottom, resulting in an even extraction for a perfectly balanced cup.
Kalita's pour over coffee makers are perfect for anyone who wants a simple yet satisfying brewing experience.
French Press
Before the pod fad, making a cup of coffee was never been easier than with the French Press. First invented in 1929, the history of the French Press is an interesting one. It was originally designed to be a more elegant and modern-looking alternative to stovetop percolators, and it soon became popular in Europe for its convenience and ease of use.
When we started Kopi, we found that many of the flavors we love from our roasts, such as strong Sumatran coffees, were getting lost with our professional grade Drip Brewer. Eventually, we switched to brewing all our in house drip coffees in insulated french presses such as these. With proper cleaning and care, they last forever and make reliably fantastic cups.
French presses are everywhere, due to their controlled brewing process that creates a smooth, rich cup every time without any bitter or grassy flavors. Plus, insulated brewers help keep your coffee warm while still allowing maximum flavor extraction.
Aeropress
The Aeropress is a great way to make coffee on-the-go. Originally invented in 2005, the Aeropress has become an incredibly popular way to make delicious coffee quickly and easily. This handy device uses two cylinders - one for brewing and one for pressing - to create a smooth cup of coffee that's as rich in flavor as if it were made with any other method. Plus, its compact design makes it perfect for taking camping or just keeping around the house.
Its durable design makes it perfect for traveling and its easy clean up capabilities mean you don't have to worry about messy spills or time-consuming scrubbing. Whether you're making your first cup at home or sipping on one while traveling - Aeropress delivers.
Mokapot
Mokapots have been around for over 80 years, originating in Italy as part of the moka coffee-making tradition. This stovetop espresso maker is as beloved today as it was then, and it’s easy to see why. Its simple design results in really strong espresso- like brews every time; all you need to do is fill the bottom with cold water and pour finely ground coffee into the filter basket before closing up the pot and placing on a low heat. Let the mokapot do its work, and soon enough you’ll be enjoying the silky tones of a well-brewed cup of espresso thanks to your trusty mokapot.
Drip Coffee Maker
Drip coffee makers are a great way to get a reliably great cup of coffee. With auto-drip functionality, you can easily customize brewing times, grind sizes, and water temperatures. If you're looking for something a little fancier, the Moka Master Drip Coffee Maker mimics pour overs so you don't have to worry about time or temperature at all - it's all taken care of for you! Best of all, you can count on a reliable pot of java every single time.
Espresso
Espresso is a classic boost to any day. With the power of an espresso machine in your very own home, you can have that deliciousness with just a few clicks of its button. Espresso machines come in a wide range of prices, so you can find one to suit your budget. For our homes, we love the Ascaso Dream PID, Programmable Home Espresso Machine that also includes volumetric controls,
If you're looking for something at the low end, manual espresso machines are an excellent alternative; they let you control every step and have half the price tag! Whichever route you take, an espresso machine brings deliciousness and convenience into your home.
PHIN
Vietnamese Phin coffee makers have a long history that stretches back to the time of French colonization in the country. Traditionally, these devices were used to make thick and strong coffee that was popular with soldiers. The actual origin of the device remains a mystery but it is believed to have first been invented in Cambodia sometime in the 1800’s.
The Phin coffee maker is a unique device that produces a very strong cup of coffee through an infusion process where hot water is poured over finely ground coffee beans. Using this method, the hot water slowly infuses with the oils and aromas of the coffee beans over time, allowing all the flavors to be extracted. The result is a cup of dark and robust brew with intense body and flavor. Additionally, some models are integrated with pressure filters that allow you to enjoy your beverage with an additional crema layer on top.
Despite its low cost, this traditional way of making coffee offers many advantages to users such as convenience (all you need is hot water), reliability (as long as you use good-quality grinds), and versatility (it can be used for other beverages such as tea). Moreover, many modern models come with customizable features like adjustable drip speed or temperature settings which allow you to craft your own perfect cup.
So, there you have it - We’ve tried them all and love experimenting with brewing our coffees; everyone is different, so there are no wrong answers in coffee. You can find our recommendations on how to brew our coffees individually within the descriptions of each bean.
