Kalita Dripper

The flat-bottom design creates a more uniform bed of coffee grounds, which promotes even extraction and reduces the likelihood of channeling. This typically results in a sweeter, more balanced cup compared to the sharper acidity often produced by cone-shaped brewers.

The three-hole design is engineered to control the flow rate of the water as it passes through the coffee bed. By limiting the speed of the draw-down, it prevents the coffee from over-extracting or clogging, ensuring a consistent brew every time.

Yes, this dripper requires specific flat-bottom paper filters designed for Kalita brewers. Using standard cone-shaped filters will not fit the base properly and will negatively impact your extraction.
