Kalita MINO Dripper

This dripper is specifically designed to be used with Kalita 185 wave filters. Using other shapes or sizes will not provide the proper fit or extraction flow.

The 3-hole flat-bottom design is engineered to prevent water from pooling at the bottom, which promotes a more consistent and even extraction. This helps minimize bitterness and produces a cleaner, more balanced cup of coffee.

While it is a high-quality ceramic, it should be handled with standard care to avoid chipping or cracking. For convenience, the dripper is dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended to preserve the finish over time.

While the 185 is optimized for 2 to 4 cups, you can brew a single cup if you adjust your grind size and pour technique. However, for frequent single-cup brewing, the smaller 155 size may offer better control.

Yes, ceramic retains heat well but can also absorb it from your brew. We recommend rinsing the dripper with hot water before adding your coffee grounds to ensure the brewing temperature remains stable.
