Clever Coffee Dripper and Filters, Large 18 oz, Original Classic Design, Safe BPA Free Plastic, dripper coffee maker, drip coffee maker pour over, 100 filters, coaster and lid

The Clever dripper works really well. I dosed at 15g/250ml ground on the fine side of drip. Water first, then coffee and stir. 2 mins steep, Stir again. Then... I saw the bit of water at the bottom that saw no grounds, so I slightly tapped the Clever on my warming-up cup, and dumped the warming water and this bit into the sink. The brew from there on was quite dark. Problem avoided. The process is WAY simpler than regular pour-overs, clean up WAY easier than French Press, just rinse, push up the valve and let dry. Just as fast as Keurig, more flavorfull coffee from the same beans. Just have to see how it lasts and performs over time.

This is easier to make coffee than a pour over. Taste wise it is between a pour over and french Press. Whole , I prefer the taste of a French press, The F.P. allows oils through that are a little bad cholesterols stuff through. Of special note is the EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER Service. My Clever Dripper had it such that I had to lightly push down on the silicone sealing Ball to keep several table spoonfuls of liquid from coming through before the weight of the water forced the ball more securely into place. When I reached out to C.S. , they quickly sent me a ball and washer kit ( it has 2 of ea. ) This was a super easy fix and all is great. BTW, I researched and found the James Hoffman way of using the Clever Dipper. His was is more efficient, takes less time and produces great coffee. I have now been enjoying Clever Dipper coffee for almost 2 o months

This is such a great coffee device, combining filter pour-over and steeping. It's also effort-free. You don't have to apply pressure like an Aeropress or a French press, you don't have grounds to sop up, and you don't get mud. This is my second Dripper, as I brought one to work and it was, um, liberated from me. This new style is a little fancier on the aesthetics, but the same great valve function. I would advise some care in cleaning. You do not want to get solid particles inside the valve mechanism as it could cause it to either clog up or leak. But just use some care when removing the filter and you should have no problem. For this reason I only use paper filters, not one of those perma-filters with the fine metal mesh, because some particles always get through.

I’ve used my original Clever Coffee Dripper, nearly every day, for 15 years. It recently created a crack and would weep while steeping, losing about 1/4 cup onto the rimmed plate I used to capture the lost coffee. I replaced it with exactly the same model and look forward to another 15+ years with my new one! I love the results and no messy grounds like with a French press.

I have now used my Large Clever coffee dripper almost daily for 6 months. I love the ability to hold coffee in the funnel for dialing in brew time. With some experimentation (along with grind size and water temperature), you can get the best flavor out of any type of coffee. It might seem a little pricey for a plastic funnel that only makes one cup at a time, but this design totally blows away any other pour over funnel. Yes, you can use it as a regular pour over, but the flexibility to hold coffee brewing longer opens up the ability to modify extraction to optimize flavor from any roast level or origin. The valve and plate mechanism are not as easy to clean as a regular pour over funnel, but I just rinse well after each use and take apart once a week (easy to remove valve gasket) for thorough cleaning. I would not put this in a dishwasher with an electric heating element for drying since it is plastic and because you would need to take it apart for dishwasher spray to reach all areas. It's just easier to handwash. I recommend a transparent color funnel to see the water level more easily. I also recommend using Hario V60 Size 3 White Paper Coffee Filters -- the cone shape fits perfectly in the Large (18oz) Dripper when you fold the point, they're less expensive than other quality Japanese paper filters, and there is no dust or off flavors imparted. I rarely rate any products 5/5 stars, but if you like good coffee at home, I can't recommend this product highly enough!

Incredibly easy to use. Delicious cup of your choice of coffee. The Clever Dripper is lightweight and durable. It takes up little space on your counter. 4 min. and you have a custom cup of your favorite brewed coffee. The patented dripper is dependable and works every time. There's nothing to plug in and wear out. If you're a coffee geek, get this product!

I have for a long time used a french press or v60 pour over to make my morning coffee; this has quickly become my favorite daily brew method. It is easy to use and brews a very smooth cup, with no sludge at all. I get the perfect amount of coffee and it never overflows out of the cup — a problem I faced before with the v60. I only wish it would fit on mugs with a wider lip; however, when I do opt for a larger mug, I simply press down on the bottom of the Clever Drip with my hand to release it into the cup. It’s easy to use, easy to clean, and makes the best coffee!

Nice idea but it's still made of plastic (BPA isn't the only bad substance that leaches out of plastic during prolonged contact with hot water), and the valve degraded surprisingly quickly, with replacement parts no longer available at a reasonable price.

Very nice

era lo que esperaba

For coffee drinkers out there this is a possible game changer. With the dripper and 100 filters in the box it is ready to go straight from the get go. (As long as you have coffee grounds to use!) Great for one person without having to use a cafeteria to get the true caffeine experience. Quick and easy to use with a great brew at the end. 5 stars IMHO.

tip: erst das Wasser in den Filter, dann das Kaffeemehl dazu und danach LEICHT mit einem Löffel unterrühren. so läuft der Kaffee viel schneller durch. Wie James Hoffmann es in einem YT Video gezeigt hat. suche nach "The Ultimate Clever Dripper Technique"

After figuring out how to brew best by watching James Hoffman on YouTube, I do love this gadget. Easy to use, minimal effort and very easy, mess free cleanup. Nicely made and quite beautiful to look at too... exactly as in description. I love to just have it out on my counter in a corner and use it whenever I don't have time for the Moka pot routine. Not quite as good a brew for espresso as Moka Pot, but still very good and superior for me for more medium roasted coffees.
