The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

  • Double walled glass. Great for people who don't like plastic. Should also offer great heat retention.

  • Big drip holes, kinda similar to Orea. Should be a fast brewer.

  • Smooth wall. Should be able to negotiate paper filters like the Orea. Although the wall angle seems to be different.

I'm personally intrigued, but I already have too many brewers, kinda hard to justify the purchase lol

Just ordered an orea after using a v60 for many years. This looks like a contender although the orea released a glass version too.

Which one did you order? The v3 or the updated v3 or v4?

I ordered the V3 so I can get it sooner. But most likely will order the v4 later and use the v3 at work as long as I like the brews.

Can't wait to get mine in a couple of days! It also put Sibarist filters on my radar, and after struggling with stalling in my Mugen for months, they're really a game changer. I chase fine grinds just at the verge of stalling, reducing brew temperature accordingly. But Cafec Abaca filters were so inconsistent in the Mugen, I had to go back to the v60. Sibarist in the Mugen is a game changer, and I'm really eager to compare to the Orea that seems like it will accomplish similar results with less expensive filters.
