CUSTOMIZED FOR KALITA FILTERS: The combination of the dripper and filter is engineered to form a water reservoir above the coffee grounds, aiding in the regulation of agitation and ensuring even extraction while minimizing excessive turbulence that could result in over-extraction.
PERFECT FOR BEGINNERS AND PROFESSIONALS: You'll find the Kalita Wave pour over coffee dripper in the world's top specialty cafes and professional coffee-making competitions. But it is also the perfect dripper for pour-over beginners. Cone drippers require perfect grinds and pouring technique in order to prevent stalling and over-extraction. The wave's flat bottom, on the other hand, maintains a wide and even coffee bed, allowing water to permeate and leave the dripper evenly through three holes.
FITS MOST CUPS AND CARAFES: The Kalita Wave's flat-bottomed coffee bed has a dripping area diameter of 2", while the full bottom measures 4" across. These dimensions ensure the Wave coffee dripper fits on almost all cups and carafes without having to worry about coffee dripping over the edges.
PULLS THE PERFECT CUP: The pantented wave design reduces contact between the brewing space and the filter itself for a more balanced extraction and a flavorful, full-bodied cup of coffee every time. The design of the dripper and filter together help create a pool of water on top of the coffee bed that can help control agitation, helping maintain a uniform extraction without too much turbulation (which could lead to over extraction).
