Watching this as I drink my morning cup of coffee! Great video and easy to understand. As someone who just started doing pour overs, the tips at the end were super helpful!! Thank you 🙌🏼
Aweome production value on this one! Looks super nice-- I usually use a french press or one of the stovetop makers. Love the tips about taste adjustment at the end!!
Nice video. But, it should be noted that flattening the filter walls actually counteracts why they were out there in the first place. The pantented wave design reduces contact between the brewing space and the filter itself for a more balanced extraction and a flavorful, full-bodied cup of coffee every time. The design of the filters work in perfect harmony with Kalita Wave Drippers to create a pool of water on top of the coffee bed that can help control agitation, helping maintain a uniform extraction without too much turbulation (which could lead to over extraction). That from the documentation. Just tying to help!
Hey! Thanks for sharing and that may very well be true. Another reason why I also flatten the filter is because it minimizes the surface area of the filter to the beans which will impact bypass. I guess at that point there’s a bit of a trade off between the two. I would be interested to do a blind tasting between the two and see if there’s a noticeable difference now that you point that out. I appreciate the comment! This was truly great.
@@markkut no worries - the Kalita is amazing. I’m sure your method way makes amazing coffee as well. You can’t really go wrong with the Kalita 155. Perhaps flattening the walls helps bring out different qualities in different roasts. Time to experiment…..and drink more coffee!!
I have Kalita’s glass 185 brewer, and my 155 filters don’t do a super great job. The brew will often slow down a lot and choke up. Check Seattle Coffee Gear or Prima Coffee!
Hey! It’s very similar however the heat retention is better on the Stagg X and the Stagg X has 10 holes instead of 3 on the kalita. Of course the Stagg is meant for bigger brews than the 155!

That’s awesome! I was hoping to make this simple since this can be intimidating for people just starting. So glad this was helpful for you!
Fantastic. Will give this recipe a go!
Thank you! Enjoy!
tried it and it's pretty good
Keep up the good job
Hey! Thanks for sharing that. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the coffee out of this.

Thanks Sam! Right on, you can get great results with a French press. The taste adjustment still applies for those as well.
@@markkut Awesome! I'll have to do some experimentation
I had to watch. I just got one of these. great video
That’s awesome! They’re great little brewers. Glad I could help!
Exlant vedio. Keep it up with good vibes 👍🏼👍🏼
Great video. I need one too.
Hey Michael! I would highly recommend it. The coffee you can get out of this is amazing!

@@LatherFace Can’t be upset with experimenting and drinking more coffee!
I like my 185 dripper is all so good 👍
I also own the 185 with Kalita’s chemex-like base, and that’s probably my ultimate preference.
@@markkut nice and I like your coffee server glass it look cool 👍
Great information I think you need a larger pitcher. I'd probably try 16g of coffee.
Hey! Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it. Perhaps, it just may get difficult to brew a higher dose in such a small brewer!
Kalita recommends 10 grams of coffee for the 155. Do you find 15 grams to produce a better result?
I had no idea that Kalita recommended 10g of coffee. I just experimented and for me 15g seemed to work well.
Is it possible to use the 155 filters in the 185 wave? I having a hard time finding the 185 filters in stock.

I need one lol
I’d highly recommend one! And they’re fairly affordable
