Varia x Kurasu Kyoto FLO Dripper

The three included screens—slow, medium, and fast—allow you to manipulate the water flow rate and contact time. By changing the screen, you can adjust the extraction profile to better suit specific roast levels or to highlight different flavor notes in your beans.

Yes, this dripper is designed for use with flat-bottom wave-style paper filters. The flat-bottom geometry is essential for ensuring even extraction and consistent flow through the interchangeable screens.

No, the Varia FLO Dripper is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing it with warm water and a mild detergent to maintain the integrity of the insulated construction and the finish.

The dripper features a double-walled, insulated stainless steel construction, which keeps the exterior cool to the touch even when filled with hot water. This design allows you to handle the dripper comfortably throughout the brewing process.

The Varia FLO Dripper features a wide base designed for broad compatibility. It fits securely on most standard coffee servers and mugs, though you should ensure your vessel has a wide enough opening to support the base diameter.

While the FLO system offers advanced control for dialing in specific extractions, it is intuitive enough for beginners to use. You can start with the medium screen to get a consistent cup and experiment with the other flow rates as you become more comfortable with your brewing ritual.
