What is the Clever Dripper?
The Clever Dripper combines the body of full immersion (like French Press) with the clarity of paper-filtered pour over. A clever valve at the base holds water until you place it on a cup — then gravity drains the brew. Almost impossible to mess up.
You'll need
- Clever Dripper
- Size 4 paper filter (cone)
- Kettle
- Burr grinder set medium
- 20 g fresh Seelaz coffee — Browse our coffees
Step by step
Insert and rinse filter
Place a cone filter inside the Clever. Rinse thoroughly with hot water. Discard the rinse from below.
Add 20 g medium grind
Same grind as drip coffee. Pour grounds in, give the Clever a gentle shake to level.
Pour 300 g water
Add water at 92 °C all at once. Stir for 5 seconds to ensure every ground is wet. The valve holds everything.
Steep 2 minutes
Place lid on top. After 90 seconds, give a quick stir to drop floaters. Steep total 2 minutes from pour.
Place on cup to drain
Set the Clever on your mug or carafe. The valve opens and coffee drips out in about 60 seconds. Done.
Pro tips
- Adjust strength by changing time, not grind. Stronger? Steep 30 seconds longer.
- Pre-warm the mug before placing the Clever — the long drawdown can cool the cup.
- Great for batch brewing single cups for guests at slightly different strengths.
