Clever Dripper

A fool-proof and inexpensive full immersion method of brewing coffee, the Clever Dripper is as familiar as a drip machine. Tt uses #4 filters and is simple to use. The resulting coffee retains much of the delicious body of a French press, but does away with the sediment.

Simple Instructions

Step 1: Place your number 4 filter into the Clever Dripper.

Step 2: Pre-wet the filter with hot water and empty the water out.

Step 3: Heat 480g of purified water to 201°F.

Step 4: Grind 21-30g of coffee, very coarse (sea salt sized), and pour into the filter in an even mound.

Step 5: Start your timer for 3 1/2 minutes.

Step 6: Pour 30-60g of heated, purified water into the center of the coffee bed, wetting all the grounds.

Step 7: Wait 30 seconds for the coffee to bloom.

Step 8: Continue pouring the remaining water and place the lid on top to retain heat.

Step 9: Remove the lid once the timer goes off and stir the slurry three times.

Step 10: Place the Clever Dripper on top of your cup or carafe.

Step 11: Drain the coffee and enjoy.
