FAQs
Immersion brewing holds coffee grounds and water together for a steeping period before separating them. Traditional pour-over brewing sends water through a bed of grounds as you pour. Some immersion drippers combine both approaches, holding water behind a valve before releasing it through a filter.
Follow the instructions for your brewer's filter, valve, or filter cap. With a steep-and-release dripper, fit the recommended filter and close the valve before adding coffee and water. With a press-through brewer, seat the filter and secure its cap as directed, then use the standard upright brewing method over a compatible cup.
Very fine grounds, a misplaced filter, or coffee residue can restrict flow. Check the filter placement and clean the filter holder or release mechanism according to the manufacturer's instructions. If the problem continues, try a slightly coarser grind on your next brew rather than pressing harder.
Discard the used grounds and disposable filter, then rinse the parts that contact coffee. Wash removable components according to the manufacturer's directions, paying attention to valves, filter caps, and plunger seals where residue can collect. Let the parts dry before storage, and check care instructions before using a dishwasher.
Yes. An adjustable hand grinder lets you grind fresh coffee for a personal serving and change the grind to suit your brewer. Start with the brewer's recommended setting, then make small adjustments. Keep your coffee amount and steeping time consistent while testing a grind change so you can understand its effect.
