Kalita Wave (Stainless)

The flat-bottom filter bed gives me noticeably sweeter, more balanced cups than my old V60, and the stainless body holds heat well enough that I don’t need to preheat aggressively. Cleanup is just a quick rinse since nothing sticks to the metal.

Switched from a cone dripper and the flat bottom really changed my pour-over game—the bed stays level and I get a noticeably sweeter, more balanced cup every morning. The stainless steel body feels hefty and should last forever with normal care.

The three holes in the flat bottom give a really steady drawdown, so my brews taste balanced without any over-extraction. It feels heavy and well-made in the hand, and cleanup is quick since nothing sticks to the stainless.
