GoodCook Koffē Auto Drip Pourover, 16 ounce capacity, slow drip 3-minute brewing using #2 filters

Great addition for a quick cup of coffee
I’m a coffee fiend, and I love new ways of preparing coffee. I don’t have a Mr. Coffee; instead, I like to do the pour over method. This was a slightly different product than the others I have.This works really well. I love how the device regulates the drip of the water, so you do not have to fret about having a specific kettle. I also love how the device has clear lines for different amounts of water (stickler coffee enthusiasts will ignore and use weights). The coffee it produces is great and the clean up is amazing! I recommend swapping out the disposable paper filters for a reusable one, but other than that, this gets a thumbs up from me!

Effectively perfect pourover, would make a great gift!
I’ve tried a few different pourovers, and each has had its merits, but none have really echoed what I’ve gotten from a few more memorable cafes. This pourover set from GoodCook seems to have worked out the drip geometries better, as I’ve had a great run of coffee since I’ve started using it. The filter size is a standard one, the wait time isn’t too long but isn’t too fast, the grounds are getting fully brewed through based on how they’re left in the filter after the process is complete, and the flavor of the coffee is excellent each time. The upper drip tank section is on the wide side, but that’s really where the magic is. For those days when I don’t have the free time to do a hand pour, the drip tank handles the distribution consistently and the results speak for themselves. It’s easy to wash the two pieces too, nothing fussy or mechanical to work around. I’m impressed. This would be a great gift for someone who likes pourovers but doesn’t necessarily like making them by hand, or someone who just can’t quite get the results they’re after. It would also be great for a dorm room or starter apartment setting. Why get a full-sized machine if you’ve got this and a kettle to heat the water in? I can see this being a big hit this holiday season!

Solid Pourover Dripper
This is a relatively straightforward item. There’s two (2) parts:1. Drip cone2. Water reservoirDrip cone is huge. It’s solid. A #2 filter disappears in the cone, I assume so it doesn’t interfere with the reservoir bottom. But it’s huge.Water reservoir is interesting. I’d probably want to start with 100C water and just let it run through, since it will undoubtedly cool and I prefer brewing at about 96C. But if you weigh everything out, then there’s extra steps/pieces to juggle and it’s a bit much for a simple process.Ok, so yes, it makes a decent cuppa. But the bad is that using the reservoir doesn’t give coffee a proper bloom. If you grind relatively fresh beans immediately before brewing, then you’ll get lots of gas and bloom and the bottom of the reservoir gets dirty/fouled (mine did everyday for a week). I made 36g of coffee each time, so well-within the acceptable range.So, TLDR, this is an interesting device. Works fine as a dripper, but it’s huge. Works fine as intended, but you may need to watch like a hawk and add water sparingly and often.
