Best pour over coffee makers for beginners in 2024

[@HowTo-fc5sl]

I have the Kalita and V60, but I use the V60 more often, it always has a great result for me.

[@MrTsaoo]

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Kalita and V60, it's always interesting to hear what works best for different people.

[@loveroxanne33]

Tried Hario Switch and Cafec Deep 27!

[@MrTsaoo]

Which one do you like?

[@DroneTourr]

Thank you for sharing!

In my opinion when we talk about pour over the first dripper would be ideal a Kalitta Hasami (ceramic) 155, the steel never buy, its awful, the glass is too fragile, if your willing to take the risk the glass is great, but would still recommend the ceramic for a begginer, because is the middle term between the very fast ones; glass and tsubame. And the awful clogging garbage one the inox. But the ceramic is much more expensive than a regular plastic v60. So depends on your pocket, if you can buy the Kalitta Hasami 155. And the 155 is better for beggeniers, because the coffee bed is close to the kettle so its much easier to control the distance between the kettle and the bed. The same goes for the v60, buy 01 only buy 02 if intend to buy the Hario Drip assist. But remember method should never be a begginer priority, you shoul go: 1#Good coffe, 2#Scale, 3#Grinder (if you have a shop close to you, wait a bit and buy a better grinder, if you want do pour over and dont want to wait buy 1zpresse Q2 heptagonal, its by far the best budget grinder) 4#Kettle and then 5# Methods.

[@MrTsaoo]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It's really helpful to hear about your experiences with different pour-over drippers. I totally get what you're saying about the Kalita 155 being a solid choice, especially for beginners. And you're right about prioritizing the essentials like good coffee, a scale, and a quality grinder before diving into brewing methods!

Tossing my chemex and purchasing the Hario V60 My Coffee game is about to level up Thank you!

[@ReligionAndMaterialismDebunked]

I love the Origami, which i finally just got yesterday. It brews very sweet cups. TALES COFFEE, here on KZbin, which uses the superior single pour, medium-fine grinds, and stirring wit a chopstick, loves the Origami the most as a coffee shop with many pour-over drippers and many other coffee brewers. Shalom.

[@wyocoyotewyocoyote9007]

Man my Clever has been my goto for years, and prefer the grinds over water technique. BUT just got a CHEAP Oxo single dripper. Only thing special is it innovative "reservoir" which has some holes in it. When you pour your hot water it controls the flow. This "topper" is very simple indeed and I am making fantastic coffee rivalling ANY other dripper, pour over device, and method I have yet to try. 17 bucks on the web.........OXO Brew Single Serve Pour-Over Coffee Maker, 12 ounces.......Oxo does a good job of making good enough products that aren't too spendy. Stoked on this new coffee toy!

[@christychenchen5437]

Could you provide pouring tips? Like what kind of recipe? Thanks!

[@MrTsaoo]

Ok! Will do that in the future videos!

[@quokkaboba]

I'm using the flower one for my shop

[@MrTsaoo]

The flower one is going to make your shop bloom like never before! 🌸

[@klarinetta]

I have the Kalita,Hario V60,Hario Switch and Origami. I no longer use the Kalita but the Kalita can be nice with Kenyan coffee I think to get a more balanced and deep cup. I choose the Origami with V60 most of the time for light roasted coffee to extract more out of the coffee and get a brighter cup and the Hario V60 when I have a more of a medium roasted coffee to get a lower extraction. I then also get a fantastic result with Hario Woodneck using Brazilian coffee or complex coffees from El Salvador and Nicaragua.

[@azzarooni8532]

Such a good video. Very straightforward no time wasting like other coffee youtubers. 👍

[@MrTsaoo]

Glad you liked it!

[@arturopincay6241]

If a normally use Aeropress, but i want to get a cone or flat dripper, which one will be a good option?

[@MrTsaoo]

V60 is pretty good

[@arturopincay6241]

@MrTsaoo thanks!! But if I'm a beginner in dripper world, which one will be a great choice?

[@pinoyxbox]

Started a month ago and got the origami small and orea v4 wide. Loved them both!!

[@MrTsaoo]

Orea v4 looks interesting, I want to try that

[@Yinn224]

Great video buddy, especially for beginners. I currently have 4 of those drippers, and would say my top recommendation for beginners is still Hario Switch. It's just so versatile - if a beginner decides they can't be bothered with pour over everyday, then just do the immersion style, much better than french press. However if they start nerding out and want to go into V60 the switch can do that as well. 👍

[@MrTsaoo]

That’s what I’m saying! Good to hear that you are feeling good with the HARIO Switch!☺️

[@Yinn224]

@@MrTsaoo yeah, I really like it. Although my go-to brewer nowadays is the Origami. But, as you said, not the best brewer for newbies to start out with

[@abcdef-cf9zv]

Thank you. My goal in upgrading my coffee prep was to eliminate using sugar in my coffee, which if it tastes like sink water is a solution. With research, it became obvious that taste outcome was related to multiple options: beans, grind, method of brew, water temperature, time…etc, etc. It is overwhelming. For a beginner, your recommendation of the switch leaves options to explore and learn to manipulate the ratio, grind, time etc. I bought an ok hand grinder, an ok weigh scale with timer, an ok gooseneck kettle plus the Hario switch. Thank you for recommending the Switch for beginners, it seems to be an adventure to explore on the road to personal coffee exploration.

[@MrTsaoo]

Of course! I'm glad you found the recommendation helpful. I hope you enjoy the process of brewing coffee at home and find the perfect recipe. If you have any questions or need further assistance along the way, feel free to reach out.

[@markrichards3747]

I've been doing pour over for about two months now and am looking to upgrade to a better dripper. With your help I've leaning toward a Kalita. You recommend the stainless steel over the ceramic. Is that mostly for durability? Once I get my skill level maximized will both drippers produce the same tasting coffee? Thanks for your videos, they have been a great help! I'm a new subscriber, please keep making more coffee videos!

[@MrTsaoo]

Thanks! If you want the keep the water temperature then you could choose the ceramic one!

[@markrichards3747]

@@MrTsaoo Thanks so much, that helps in my decision!

[@markrichards3747]

I ended up finding really good deals on the Kalita ceramic wave and the brass Kalita wave. The heat retention difference is quite pronounced, just like you said. I like the coffee that I'm getting from both brewers but I think the ceramic Wave yields smoother, richer coffee. Thanks again for your help!

[@mamumonkan]

what is best for making 1-2 cups of blue mountain coffee ?

[@MrTsaoo]

They are all doable

[@OrcadianOtter]

Great video, nice comparison. Thanks!

[@MrTsaoo]

thank you for the support! :)

[@mamumonkan]

which one is best for small batches ?

[@MrTsaoo]

They are all doable I believe

[@sunrisechaser7913]

Thanks for making this video!

[@MrTsaoo]

My pleasure!

[@shellavibs5591]

love my hario switch v60 maximizing the full potential of every coffee beans by utilizing its dual brewing method. and im not suggesting this for the beginners for it needs a lot of tools and attention to details to be able to use it properly.

[@film79]

I believe ceramic is a better conductor of heat than plastic and therefore not retain heat as well as a plastic dripper, although I'm pretty dumb so i could very well be wrong. Also i personally don't like using plastic with boiling water so I would still use the ceramic one.

[@MrTsaoo]

Good Point!

[@NapoleonSupreme]

Is manual pour over better than electric drip coffee makers?

[@MrTsaoo]

It depends on personal preference. Manual pour-over offers control, while electric drip machines offer convenience. I personally prefer manually!

[@MrMichael1259]

Yeah!!!! Subscribe!

[@MrTsaoo]

Nice bro!

[@NapoleonSupreme]

Do you like Chemex too?

[@MrTsaoo]

I have tried the original Chemax and used it occasionally before, but I believe the lack of ribs on the dripper causes the flow rate to be too slow. However, I still think it can be used with some adjustments. I plan to make a video discussing Chemax soon. Stay tuned

[@Mfuao]

i prefer melitta i dont like to mutch acidity

[@MrTsaoo]

Great!

[@baredsta]

Well, you definitely should have adjusted the grind size accounting for the properties of each dripper. Otherwise, it’s an unfair comparison, and misleading (especially for beginners who will unfortunately learn bad habits if this is all they watch). Instead of using so many drippers (and encouraging beginners to get so many) it is better to learn how to dial on any dripper (and the pretty much the most basic thing is adjusting grind size instead of arbitrarily sticking to a fixed setting).

[@MrTsaoo]

Thanks for sharing bro! I got what you mean but I am afraid to make this video getting too complicated. And if I used different grind size might be another unfairly situation.

[@bovineexcrement8635]

It's still gonna be subjective and opinion

[@josephhwang1428]

Ceramic and heat retention? I think not.

[@BennyCFD]

Oh Dude get real. It's not rocket science. In a blind taste test nobody if going to tell the difference .

[@MrTsaoo]

Taste can be very subjective, and what might seem indistinguishable to one person could be quite distinct to another. It's not about rocket science, but rather about personal preference and individual sensitivity to flavors. Plus, a lot of the enjoyment comes from the overall experience and the context in which something is tasted.

[@ReligionAndMaterialismDebunked]

Besides your bad grammar, you sure are ignorant to coffee tasters, extraction measurement devices, what roast, what temp, if you stir, flow rate, pour method (single pour is best, as TALES COFFEE on KZbin does), flat bottom extracts more, etc. Also, it doesn't need to be rocket science, as most things are far less technical than rocket science. In studies, 50% of machine drippers have yeast and/or mold in them, and most you cannot control the water temp, let alone the pour technique. Lol. Tell me you don't know about coffee without telling me you don't know about coffee...

[@ReligionAndMaterialismDebunked]

​Indeed. That person with the bad grammar didn't get any like, but you got 11 likes. That person is very ignorant. Lulz. Shalom.
