HARIO DRIP KETTLE $70.00

With the Hario Drip Kettle, it’s easy to take the simple task of brewing morning coffee from stale to sophisticated. Used as a pour over brewer, the stainless steel kettle has an ergonomic design and features a long, slender spout that’s ideal for steady, continued pouring over coffee grounds. Pouring in this way ensures an even saturation of grounds, as well as sustained extraction. Aside from the flavorful cups of coffee the kettle yields, it’s also stunning to look at with its subtle, undulating curves and delicate spout. It’s a kettle that deserves to be displayed after use. The Hario Drip Kettle works excellently when paired with a manual coffee maker, like the Hario Drip Pot.

HARIO COFFEE DRIP POT $60.00

The Hario Drip Pot is a manual coffee maker, made for brewing coffee in small servings. Using a reusable cloth filter, the Drip Pot is an ideal vessel when paired with a pour over kettle like the Hario Drip Kettle. The filter rests easily within the top of the pot, which has a narrow, tulip shape to aid in the brewing process. The base of the pot is more bulbous, which enables the coffee to expand and grow its flavor once it works its way through the filter. After the coffee has brewed and the filter is removed—an easy task with the filter’s wood handle— coffee can be poured directly from the pot. The wood collar on the drip pot stays cool to the touch, ensuring painless pours, every time.
