Clever Dripper Small Teal

The Clever Dripper is a brewing device designed for making coffee. It is a manual pour-over coffee maker that combines aspects of both a French press and a drip brewer. It allows for longer steeping times compared to traditional pour-over methods, resulting in a full-bodied and well-extracted brew. Additionally, it provides the convenience of easy cleanup, as the spent grounds and filter can be easily discarded.

The Clever Dripper consists of two main components: a plastic cone with a valve at the bottom and a separate brewing chamber with a lid.

To use the Clever Dripper, you place a paper filter in the cone, add coffee grounds, and then pour hot water over the grounds. The water and coffee steep together for a desired amount of time, typically between two to four minutes.

Once the steeping time is complete, you place the Clever Dripper on top of a coffee mug or carafe. As the device is placed on the mug, the valve at the bottom is pushed open, allowing the brewed coffee to flow through the filter and into the mug. The valve mechanism ensures that the coffee drains only when the device is placed on a suitable container, providing control over the brewing process.

The Clever Dripper is praised for its simplicity and the ability to brew a clean and flavorful cup of coffee. It allows for longer steeping times compared to traditional pour-over methods, resulting in a full-bodied and well-extracted brew. The Clever Dripper is a popular choice among coffee enthusiasts who appreciate the balance between simplicity and the ability to produce a consistently delicious cup of coffee.
