SCG in Portland: Pour Over Equipment

Pour overs. Probably the hippest way to brew your coffee right now. And as you already know, we are pretty hip! But perfecting the art of pour over takes a little bit of patience, skill and some basic equipment. We decided to take a trip down to our Portland store to get the scoop about what options for pour over equipment are out there. Because, if you didn't know already, Portland Oregon is the place for pour over coffee. Gail met up with Celine and had her give us the low down. Some of our big take aways from our "working" vacation to Portland:

  1. There are a ton of different tools for making pour over coffee.
  2. When it comes to pour over, it is all about the flow. (Certain cones help you attain the perfect flow by adjusting the amount of holes and their placement. The Kalita Wave is a great cone for those new to pour over)
  3. You should not put your Hario Drip Pot filters in the washing machine, under any circumstances.
  4. A gooseneck kettle, like this Hario, is essential for directing your water to all the right places.
