Coffee Maker-Hand Brewing Pot Kalita, Hario Home Make Your Own Coffee Simple Hand Brewing

After all, this thing has some handicraft properties. When it comes to cost performance, it is often quite nonsense. Only people who like it don't like it and don't like it easily. For example, some of Takahiro's plated limited models, although handsome in appearance, sell for two ordinary cups or even close to 2000. I'm not willing to buy them (I think it's better to upgrade a bean grinder with this money)... Even if it's an oil pot, there are people who are familiar with it.

In terms of brand, Japan, which has developed a large number of hand-brewed coffee, is naturally the first to bear the brunt. Kalita, Hario, etc. have many famous pots handed down, each with its own strengths; Takahiro, which has been very popular recently, is also from Japan. Bonavita, which has a set of automatons made in the United States, also has a "champion pot" with a very high appearance rate. Taiwan imitations, Tiamo and YAMI workmanship is actually good, but generally buy Tiamo, cost-effective.

The following descriptions are roughly ranked by my preference (orz is usually the most used one at the top); since almost all pots except Bonavita need thermometers and other boiling tools (induction cooker, hot water kettle, etc.) to assist, this is not a disadvantage specifically mentioned. As long as it is a metal pot, it can generally be heated on an induction cooker.

Update: Attach links to some Douban things, prices are randomly marked ah = =

1. Takahiro 0.9L "Cheating pot"

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/4022008/

The ordinary stainless steel version is priced at about 500. In recent years, it has become famous because it controls water so well that it seems to have been cheated. Famous like a variety of colors of electroplating limited edition cheat money brand, but countless enthusiasts go through fire and water for it…workmanship has not to say. Although I didn't buy this pot myself, I have used it more than ten times. As long as the budget allows, buy it.

Advantages:

1) It is wider and more stable than the common 0.7L pot, which can maintain uniform and stable water in a larger range of water content;

2) The spout is flat and long, the spout is thin and the cutting area is not small, that is to say, it is stable and free to control fine water and coarse water, and it will not be too inclined or shaken too much to cause the circle injection to be biased to one side;

3) moderate launching impact;

4) The handle feels good and will not be very hot.

Disadvantages:

Almost none. It can be called a pot to go all over the world. It can adapt to various brewing methods from Japanese drip to Nordic stirring. It correctly displays the characteristics of beans with various baking degrees. The difficulty of controlling water is also quite small.

2. Kalita 0.7L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/2395902/

Imitation (for example): dongxi.douban.com/show/3153160/

There are stainless steel version and candy color plating version, price 300 up and down. The shape of the pot is beautiful and clever. It can be called the most imitation. I am currently using the stainless steel imitation of Tiamo. In fact, I can buy it in 120. Almost all aspects are almost orz (with thermometer...). Be sure to remember to remove the leather cover before putting it on the induction cooker!

Advantages:

1) also belongs to a fresh type of pot, the water control and stability of medium and fine water flow is slightly inferior to Takahiro cheating pot, but it is also quite excellent;

2) Double-layer pot handle, completely not hot, humanized design.

Disadvantages:

Limitations in the spout section, coarse water flow is not coarse enough, not well suited to the needs of the Nordic rapid mixing flow (but also barely usable).

3. Bonavita "Champion Pot"

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/2088181/

Different from other slender and exquisite Japanese products, Bonavita has a smooth and simple shape, practical and explosive watch, and its integrated temperature-controlled timing base is its first, frequently appearing in major arenas.

Advantages:

1) Temperature control is extremely convenient, so convenient that you can almost not worry about it at all;

2) It can adapt to the fast coarse water flow, and the control of medium and fine water flow is not difficult. It can be practiced a little;

3) The capacity is very large and stable.

Disadvantages:

It is mainly biased, and the fine water is slightly more difficult to control than the above two models.

4. Noda Enamel Moon Rabbit Seal 1.2L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/3716847/

A pot used at home, 0.7L version of 250 can be bought, recommended purchasing, can be cheaper 70-80 yuan...... a large number of fans, received on the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is actually a hexagonal moon rabbit print, cute do not want, the whole person is bling-bling up! To be honest, I think 1.2L is more practical, but 0.7L feels more symmetrical.

Advantages:

1) obvious, full texture, full pot sealing glaze, color range, color control serious welfare (it is said that red is easy to appear sealing glaze defects);

2) The water is very straight and soft, which is very conducive to uniform extraction;

3) Water control is relatively easy, fine water is OK, and the performance of medium and coarse water is better than Kalita (the whole series).

Disadvantages:

1) The water is too soft, the impact force of penetrating the powder layer is insufficient, it is not so easy to stir up (for typical American punching method), and it will be slightly insufficient if you are not careful;

2) The handle is relatively hot, and it is still acceptable. If there is an American punching requirement, it is best to wrap it = =

3) Are you willing to heat it on the induction cooker...

5. Kalita Wave

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/3709812/

I don't use this bottle much, so to speak, it has no features other than the spring coil shape, but it is also its balance that makes it a classic pot shape, at least in this position to recommend. Overall, compared to Kalita's regular model, the characteristics are not very different.

Advantages:

1) Wooden handle! Comfortable to the touch, not hot at all;

2) The spout is sharp to improve the fine water flow control effect, and the incision is not small. The coarse water is better than the first two models.

Disadvantages:

The water is not very straight when it is thin, and it is a little wobbly with the circle; but overall, there is not too much short board, but I don't like its shape very much...

6. Takahiro 雫 0.9L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/3806340/

Domestic non-purchasing price more than 800. In addition to the name, the difference between the series and the first Takahiro is mainly in the spout. There are quite a lot of imitations, and there are many models that are very good for 100 yuan. The water effect can be said to be similar, but the workmanship will be a lot worse.

Advantages:

The spout section is very fine, which greatly improves the stability and impact of fine water and greatly reduces the difficulty of flow control. It can be said that there is no fine water pot on the market except cotton can.

Disadvantages:

There is an obvious upper limit to the outflow velocity, which can only be used in the case of fine flow flushing.

7. Kalita Purple Copper Pot 0.6L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/2106801/

You can buy it for 400 or 500 yuan. This is what I used when I didn't have a hand to make a pot. Pot shape and 0.7 Kalita candy color is basically the same, the water effect is the same, but the shape is more unique cool = =

Advantages:

1) Light, very light, very handy to use.

Disadvantages:

1) The handle of the pot is very hot and needs to be wrapped with hemp rope to hold it;

2) Copper pot maintenance is difficult, if you do not remember to dry it, it is estimated that it will rust or delaminate for more than half a year.

8. Hario 1.2L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/1753007/

Street Kettle, probably the most commonly used hand-brewed kettle in the world. It's good to get used to it. 1.2L about 200 can buy, there are also 1L version, personal feel insulation and stability is not as good as 1.2L. Commonly known as cloud pot, grenade pot, stool pot...

Very distinctive, also applicable to a wide range of scenes and a large number of fans of a pot, but there are other pots in addition to the magic lamp is present, I will definitely not choose it QAQ

Advantages:

1) can produce coarse water, all kinds of flushing method can meet;

2) The shape design is full, mainly the upper narrow and lower wide large flat bottom heating efficiency is very good, the design is initially used to cooperate with the induction cooker, is the temperature control king before Bonavita;

3) relatively light, handle is not hot at all.

Disadvantages:

1) Fine water control requires some skill.

9. Kalita Crane Mouth Jug 1.2L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/3248267/

It seems to be the cheapest one in the Kalita series, less than 200 can be done, and the crane mouth is quite distinctive (Li Jian used it = =) However, it is still not recommended to buy.

Advantages:

1) The design of crane mouth makes coarse water reliable and fine water controllable.

Disadvantages:

1) slightly larger;

2) Do not stir, otherwise the water will seriously lead to uneven extraction, only the Japanese drip method of vertical water injection can be applied.

10. Kalita Copper Magic Lamp 0.9L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/3301165/

The price is about 600. The shape of the magic lamp pot is so classic that it is the first thing to think of when it comes to hand washing pot. There are also many imitations of large and small sizes. I have also produced various size series, but 0.9L is a little easier to use. Generally speaking, I will say that this is my second hate pot = = advice: do not buy.

Advantages:

1) fine water soft and very very stable;

2) The spout is raised very high to increase the impact of the water, and at the same time, the pot can be very close to the filter cup without scraping the filter paper when the circle is filled;

3) Very nice (I think).

Disadvantages:

1) The insulation is really too bad, too bad, there will be boiling water after the pot, a look at only 80 degrees less than this kind of thing (fall)...... I have considered whether to immerse it in the boiling water pot................

2) no medium and coarse water flow;

3) As soon as I use the stirring method of ordinary American brewing method, the water shakes violently. I can only gently draw circles (throw) obediently, which completely conflicts with the conventional stirring method I used to use Kalita, so I don't like orz.

4) copper pot, maintenance hard damage (although compared to copper seems not so easy to rust, but it may also be copper every day, no one with the lamp illusion 0.0);

5) Portability is zero.

11. Melitta stainless steel wooden handle 1.3L

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/1752997/

To tell you the truth, I really don't think this pot can be used for hand flushing…Huge German goods, wooden handle feels good, but full of water is too heavy, mouth is also very thick = = still with smart cup, love pressure, or Nordic stirring flow barely OK.

12. Yukiwa Taguchi

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/1845229/

Faith pots, pots that become part of Japanese life. Two days ago, I saw "Miracle Brewer". Ito Yingming also used it to make coffee. The technique is not bad. However, people who have used it do not mention its benefits. The design is still old, and it is really heavy!

13. Virus cotton can

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/4122308/

He looked very cute. About 300? The material is very light, but the shape is easy to shake water, the design of the spout is to make the water skewed to one side, the first time to use the extraction is uneven; the insulation is not good, the cost performance is not very good. The only advantage is that the control of fine water is really invincible, even the water may not be as good as it.

14. Hario VKB-90CP Gold

http://dongxi.douban.com/show/2488607/

Cloud pot enhanced version, this is the new love! After using it, I know that a good pot is also the same as the first Takahiro. It is slightly heavier, but its shape determines that Hario is more stable to use, because it is not pure copper but plating on the outside. In fact, the heat preservation is also very good.

Of course, the main reason why it has recently caught fire in the third wave of coffee giants such as Stump Town and can be seen in the official instagram of various stores every three days is still_good-looking. The only downsides: expensive (700 or 800, often priced at 1300), and the handle is a little hot.
