Hario Tabletop Coffee Siphon
$82.50
The siphon is a time-tested brewer that blends theatricality with
unparalleled quality. Two glass chambers are suspended on a tabletop stand,
filled with water, and heated by an open flame. The expansion of hot air in
the lower chamber forces water upwards and keeps it “floating” above.
Coffee is then added to the top chamber, where it’s steeped in hot water
for a relatively short amount of time until it’s filtered on the way down.
When the flame is extinguished, the cooling air in the lower chamber allows
the coffee to fall below. Complete immersion of the grounds results in a
complex and intensely flavorful cup, while the cloth filter keeps it smooth
and free from undesirable sediment.
