Know before you buy
The BIRD Brewer uses a vacuum-powered, no-bypass method that forces water through the coffee bed under controlled pressure. This allows you to use a much finer grind than traditional pour-over methods, resulting in higher extraction efficiency and a more complex, espresso-like body.
The brewer is designed to work with both the included reusable stainless mesh filter and high-quality Abaca paper filters. Using the paper filters will result in a cleaner, more tea-like cup, while the mesh filter preserves more oils for a heavier mouthfeel.
The BIRD Brewer is designed for single-serve precision, with a coffee capacity of 20-35 grams of grounds. This yields up to 350 grams of finished coffee output, making it ideal for a concentrated, high-quality cup.
The carafe is made from durable borosilicate glass, which is resistant to thermal shock. The entire unit is designed to be easily disassembled, allowing you to thoroughly clean the Stainless 316 brewing pod and glass components after each use.
No, the BIRD Brewer features an integrated electric base that handles the heating process. You simply add your water and coffee, and the device manages the extraction cycle through its button-controlled interface.
