For those of you who use the Clever Dripper, this is worth watching. I'm kind of surprised it took James this long to make a video about them.
I watched that, it's interesting. Thanks for posting it.
I've never noticed the "draw down" time being overly long for me (never timed it that I recall), but at the same time, I've never noticed it stalling towards the end like shown in the video. Hmm. Maybe the way I pour the water in over the grounds has something to do with it? I don't usually pour it gently and swirl over the grounds like a lot of pour-over videos will show, I dump it in relatively quickly at first over the grounds in the middle, then finish off the edges with the remaining water, still poured pretty quickly. I also usually do a 16 ounce batch, which is almost too much for the Clever.
This could be a non-issue for me perhaps? Food for thought I suppose.
Quick question-
How many ways can you brew coffee???
Like how many are out there, or how many options do we have?
Personally, I can do drip, espresso, French press, pour-over, percolator, moka pot, ibrik, cold brew, Clever, Aeropress, and cowboy brew methods. Used to have an old siphon, but that's long gone after getting broken. Never felt the need to replace it, too finicky and a pain to clean up.
