Kalita - 2001 Kalita 102 Ceramic Dripper Coffee Dipper, white

This pour over coffee dripper works perfectly for my needs. It holds a number 2 coffee filter with ease. It is a great size to place directly over my coffee mugs in a variety of sizes and it brews my coffee perfectly once I finally go the grind size correct. It is a high quality ceramic dishwasher safe brewer and I absolutely love it.

It is great for two cups of coffee.

I saw this in a friends house, bought one myself to match my white kitchen theme, & have been using is almost every day for like two years and it still looks like new- I don’t even wash it often, just rinse after every use lol. Absolutely amazing purchase, one of my favorites! I definitely recommend, it makes a great, lighter cup of coffee!:)

We recently got rid of all our coffee contraptions and use pour over coffee. This Kalita dripper works perfectly!

I really like this pour over coffee maker. Simple, clean, no microplastics in my coffee. Wish I would have bought sooner. Made in Japan which I prefer over China.

The Kalita 102 is an exceptional pour-over coffee maker that consistently delivers a smooth, rich, and balanced cup of coffee and the build quality is top-tier.

The brown glaze is attractively done (unless you hate brown) and the whole piece looks like quality ceramic. The three holes are not too big or small and let water pour through without dribbling along the bottom side (at least on mine). My pour-overs now taste a little better than they ever have (my first one was a just ok budget off-brand, and I improved the quality with my second dripper, and now this is my third, and I think best/final purchase) and cleanup is a breeze - I just rinse in the sink immediately after each use (top/bottom/sides) and put in the dish rack until next time. I will hand wash with regular dish detergent and a sponge in warm water whenever I notice coffee residue building up. My only issues: the ring/raised edge profile around the bottom holes stick out a little too much and sometimes dips into the coffee at the end of the pour. I can make less coffee or use a larger/deeper mug, but I prefer my chosen serving size to fill up near the rim of the mug (about 1/4" from the lip) for the pleasing visual aesthetic of a full cup of coffee. I eat and drink with my eyes, as well as my mouth and hands, so it matters to me. The second issue is that I wish the dripper would perfectly accommodate the size and shape of a #2 Melitta filter. Currently, the filter protrudes by about 1/4' (which I know some prefer to be able to lift the filter out of the dripper by this default tab, but I'd like the top of the filter to reach the top of the dripper without going above the rim); and the interior shape of the dripper causes the filter to bunch up in two or three places, causing gaps that require more careful maneuvering while pouring. The interior should be a bit more elliptical to accommodate the similar shape of the filter when inserted. My third and final issue: the diameter of the base is 4", and while that is enough to sit on any of my mugs without falling or sliding, it's not a perfect seating for my largest mug. I would like to see a base with a diameter of 4.25 - 4.5." Combined, the above three issues subtract a star, but this is really a great dripper overall, and I would buy one again if needed. Final thought: imagine if they made the suggested/desired alterations I mentioned, and then did the same for a dripper size for #4 Melitta filters. Add a few more attractive pastel color options and I think that would make this the international gold standard for pour-over drippers. Update: I broke my dripper ): It was totally my fault though! I, dummy that I am, was walking down a steep slippery hill with my entire pour-over equipment set (dripper, filters, digital scale, gooseneck kettle, hand grinder, thermometer - even my favorite mug, all in a bag for a week-long house sitting gig I had just returned from) and of course I slipped and fell down the hill (first time ever, in over ten years of going down that hill, so I guess I had become smug about my would-be billy goat credentials). True to my word above, about buying one again if needed, I did indeed buy another one right away. This time I got the white one, a very clean and smooth nice white color. But I think I prefer the brown one overall for looks, and the bottom design on the white one is a little different, and the coffee dribbles along the bottom a little sometimes, but still makes a great pour-over.

I love this thing, its well made, great to be ceramic and not plastic, easy to find filters for. My coffee pot also uses conical filters larger than this one uses, so I tend to just buy those and then trim them down with scissors to fit this which is easier and cheaper than buying two of both. I highly recommend after heating up your water for the brew, to first rinse the filter in the dripper and mug to heat it up as the ceramic absorbs heat. If you don't have a conical dripper and also don't mind ordering all your filters online, then I may recommend a v60 style over a kalita style, but I still like this one a lot.

solid ceramic, feels really good

اللون رائع وحسب تجربتي الاداة جميله وافضلها على v60 وحتى على الكاليتا الكيرف

Good genuine item. I have now thrown away my plastic Mellitta dripper of this shape. Came without breaking.

Still great after long use (12 months+): Excellent quality and very happy about my purchase even after long use

Fait totalement le job, c’est qualitatif et c’est un super complément à du V60
