Best praise vs top criticism for April Pour-Over Brewer
“Man we need more posts like this. Straight to the point. Theres no wrong way to taste coffee as long as youre honest and specific! I might have to get a Kalita wave, just had some impressive pourovers last weekend at a roastery in norcal brewed on that. I’ve been wanting an April brewer but maybe kalita *is the wave*”
“Currently I mostly use the plastic April dripper - with the „April recipe“ (12-200, 2 pours - 100g each) doesn’t work for every coffee especially not for gassy coffees since you skip the bloom but on the coffees it does work (mostly washed coffees) it delivers an extremely clean, sweet and harmonious cup and is very consistent from brew to brew.”
