We often settle for the usual drip coffee maker for the sake of time and convenience. The ancient art of pour over coffee brewing has recently gained popularity because the technique of slowly pouring water over the ground beans extracts excellent flavor. But, we usually don't have time to perform the ritual. The KitchenAid® Pour Over Coffee Brewer brings together the clean, complex flavors that are created with a traditional cup of pour over coffee with the ease and convenience of an automatic machine. Instead of continuously flooding the brew basket with water, the Pour Over Coffee Brewer pulses the flow of water, precisely controlling the extraction, allowing the grounds to "bloom." In addition, the Pour Over Coffee Brewer heats all of the water at once to the optimal brewing temperature instead of one drop at a time like conventional drip coffee makers. You'll notice the difference in the caramel color and the complex layers of flavor. Precise water flow control This gear inside your Pour Over Coffee Brewer precisely controls water flow, for ideal flavor extraction. 7
