I have had the Wide v4 since it came out; however, I don't like to use the fast (flat) bottom, it lacks complexity even with a Sibarist filter. For washed coffees, if I really want to use the v4 it has to be the open or the classic. Sadly I don't have the narrow to test acidity and clarity, but I do have a v3 and the narrow body is indeed better if you are after clarity and vibrancy. Now, if I see floral notes in the coffee regardless of where it comes from, nothing beats a conical dripper. For those, I gravitate toward the Kono. The apex from the v4 was a clever idea, just not one sufficient enough to replace a conical dripper
That is a great observation for sure! Thank you for sharing! Cone dripper is really good at bringing out complexity and those floral notes. The Orea is really nice with the combination of body and clarity which is harder to come by with other flat bottom brewer.
Thxs a lot for this introducing video. I bought the last one with no bags from you two weeks ago, and finally ready to brew with the Teshome ❤❤❤
Thank you very much! Enjoy!
