Know before you buy

Yes, the machine is compatible with most pour-over drippers. You can remove the filter basket and place your preferred dripper directly under the showerhead for a hands-free manual brew.
The 'My Brew' setting allows you to fully customize your coffee by manually adjusting the bloom time, flow rate, and brewing temperature. It is ideal for users who want to experiment with different roast profiles or specific brewing recipes.
