Kalita Wave Coffee Filter Cup Advantages and disadvantages Perfect use of cake cups

Summer was over, and the cooler temperatures had put my Kalita ceramic filter cups into hot cup trouble again, so buying Kalita classic 102 copper filter cups from Japan seemed like a legitimate move. Moreover, Kalita 102 copper filter cup in Japan as long as a thousand Taiwan dollars, but in Taiwan is often 2-3 thousand prices, how to see should take advantage of the opportunity to buy in Japan, anyway, I have been thinking for many years.

Why spend thousands of dollars on copper products when you only need a few hundred dollars for a filter cup? In fact, the most common plastic filter cup as long as 2-3 hundred yuan have (big Chuang 39 yuan plastic filter cup is not difficult to use ah), but plastic plus high temperature always makes people nervous, so about 500 yuan ceramic filter cup is actually a good choice. But the biggest problem with ceramic filter cups is that they are heavy and bulky, so it is always a bit troublesome to heat them in the first place just to keep the heat from being sucked away. So I positioned the ceramic cups as summer cups and switched back to plastic Hario V60 cups in winter.

What good is a copper filter cup? Of course, the heat conduction is fast without a hot cup (the temperature storage filter cup is not considered), and then there is no doubt about the material of the plastic cup, and more importantly, the copper material looks particularly sensational. No wonder Kalita has written "professional coffee props" on the packaging. Although I don't care about the ceremony anymore, it's good to keep some coffee preparation atmosphere...

Kalita 102 is a three-hole filter cup. Compared with 102 ceramic filter cup, copper filter cup has smaller pore size. I think the water yield is more appropriate. It is difficult to grasp these size details for ceramic products, so there are still some differences in specifications compared to plastic and copper filter cups.

The same scene, conveniently also brought a Kalita copper coffee spoon back, this thing has nothing to do with the quality of coffee, in fact, plastic spoon storage or cleaning is easier, but to apply Amazon JP customer evaluation above: is to use copper spoon will have the feeling of coffee shop ah.

These are the three filter cups I have in service, Kalita 102 ceramic filter cup on the left and Hario V60 plastic filter cup on the right. The Hario V60, which uses a spiral water system, is actually quite popular in the third wave of the coffee revolution, and it is a bit weaker than the traditional three-hole filter cup. However, I have not been very fond of V60, because the water outlet hole is too big, always feel that the thickness of the brewing is not as good as the three-hole filter cup; secondly, the use of special conical filter paper, the cost and convenience are not attractive.

The filter cup is not a consumable item at all, but my ceramic filter cup is broken and needs to be retired. So from autumn onwards, enter the world of copper filter cups for mood change!
