Coffee Maker in Brown(Large)

This brewer has been able to produce the absolute best tasting coffee I've had and it does so with practically no effort, both for hot and iced coffees. Having previously brewed with the likes of the aeropress and toying around with cold brew recipes (which are both great in their own right), this is able to compete with both of those methods and exceeding both of them while also being extremely easy to use, extremely easy to clean, yet also being very versatile in producing different styles of coffee within the same brewer. The method I use for the hot brew and the iced coffee which I had discovered through the James Hoffmann video where he cites workshop coffee being the ones to have come up with adding water first, then your grounds, this has worked for me very successfully and is super simplistic and is very repeatable most importantly. While I can't speak to the longevity on how this holds up over time (maybe there are undiscovered issues) I've been thoroughly impressed with how this brewer produces very tasty coffee with the technique being as straight forward doesn't make it feel like a chore. The only downside I really see with this brewer is you're really only making 2 cups at a time with it, which in my case, is perfectly fine, but something to keep in mind if you were to brew for a group or something. That said, you will be able to get coffee to your cup in 5mins easily.

This Clever Dripper is very clever. From its drip-free auto-stop feature when you lift it (check video), to its legs that allow it to be placed on the counter without dripping (or inside the provided coaster), to just the right amount of speed water strains through its patented drip feed to brew the perfect cup of coffee, it is just brilliant. I've been drinking coffee my whole life and I can say with 100% certainty that no other cup-top coffee strainer is as convenient or makes coffee as good as Clever Dripper. It's also been tested as BPA Free which is important. For the posh folks that like their french press, the Clever Dripper allows you to pour water in without it flowing until it's placed on a cup, you can mix your posh cup of coffee and gain the benefit of Japanese paper filters so you don't have to worry about coffee grains stuck in your teeth. The competition can only focus on snake-oil marketing while they sell you cup top strainers with gaping holes in the bottom where water flows through without brewing a proper cup. The Clever Dripper's different. It's been engineered & designed by coffee drinkers for coffee drinkers. Every clever feature makes it worth it. From not having to worry about coffee spilling everywhere when you take it off the cup (its auto-stop feature), to the paper filters, coaster & lid provided, everything is ready to go to make a fantastic brew of coffee. Especially recommended for the coffee conoisseurs among you. Personally I just pop it on my mug, add a bit of coffee to the paper filter and press it down like a barrista before pouring the hot water in. Fantastic & strong coffee every time! If you like a weaker brew, just add less coffee. Simple. So is it the best coffee strainer in existence? Definitely. 👍 5/5 stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This is one of those items that I took a punt on. I usually use a V60 for my pour overs and this seemed like an overly complicated version of the same thing. But it's better, a lot better. Put in the filter, then pour in your water. THEN put in your ground beans. Give them a stir with a spoon and leave it to brew. Then after a minute or two put it on your cup and let it drain. It's a wonderful coffee. It's very well made. It gives you a coffee that can be drank very quickly after brewing (I tend to heat the water to 85C or 90C at a max). I know it seems like it's expensive for a pour over, but trust me, it will up the quality of your morning coffee and you won't miss the 20 odd quid you parted with. Stop messing around. If you value a great coffee, especially if like me you drink it black. Buy this.

The design of the Clever Dripper sets above other pour over products in my opinion. The valve system that lets the coffee brew and releases the coffee when you set it on top of a cup, makes all the difference. I have had mixed results with normal pour over systems in the past, but the Clever system works the best of all those that I have tried, it is also very easy to use. The consensus opinion seems to be that using the James Hoffman method is best i.e. putting the water in first and then putting the coffee on top of the water. just then give it a gentle stir to remove clumps and then put the lid on. The other thing I do is to well rinse the filter papers first to remove any residue and taste. I put the paper in the dripper, fully wet it under a tap, tip the water out, part fill it and set it on a cup to run water through it, then boil some water and run that through it as well. I find that if I do this, the filter papers don't taint the taste of the coffee. You do get a substantial amount of filter papers with the dripper. As long as you use good quality, freshly roaster coffee i.e. not sitting on a supermarket shelf for six months, and preferably whole bean and grind it yourself, you should be able to make some excellent coffee. Strongly recomended

I have a 2 small hole Melitta style dripper with a Hario pouring jug. Also a Hario V60 with a ball bearing that I added myself. I don't get on with that one at all. I had also ordered the Hario Switch, but there was an issue with the order. This one, the Clever Dripper was a stop gap. After having used it for a couple of months, this one is the best. You can just stick a paper in, a scoop of ground coffee, and fill it with water. Leave it to steep, come back to it in a couple of minutes and its ready to place on your cup. 2 minutes or so more and your coffee is ready. No sludge. Coffee is rich. Dripper is easy to clean. I just give it a rinse. It's the best all rounder. If I want to play with pouring, I use the Melitta style dripper and the Hario pouring jug.

Easy to use, less cleaning faff than the cafetiere i previously used. A vefy practical way go combins steeping with filters Do you lose some of the oils to the filter paper? I'm not sure whether there's quite so much richness

Just made my first cup of coffee in the Clever Dripper and it worked a treat. I also received 100 large paper filters suitable for 2 cups at a guess. I have a stack of smaller filters so I tried one of them first and got a nice strong cup just for me. Happy with my purchase.

This is the best thing I have ever bought for myself for work. I was looking for a convenient way to make quality coffee at work - I don't enjoy instant coffee, and nobody else uses the dripper machine so it's a faff to set up and clean for just myself. I had been using a cafetière, but the grit at the end of the cup was annoying me. This brilliantly combines the benefits of steeping coffee like a cafetière with the clean, soot free drink from a dripper machine. Easy to clean, durable so far, and the valve effectively stops the product from dripping when it's not sat on a cup. Perfect size - could probably make 2 small cups of coffee at a time.
