In this episode, Kenneth sits down with Mark Inmann with Sustainable Harvest Coffee Importers to discuss both the pour-over or immersion approach to brewing coffee. They explain both techniques, in detail, before going through the pros and cons of each of them. Kenneth and Mark also talk about cold drip devices.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Examples of immersion techniques include French Press and AeroPress.
• Pressure is an important in brewing.
• A Clever dripper provides good control of the immersion time.
• For pour-overs, the Kalita Wave is a good option.
• A Chemex is ideal if you are making more than one cup.
• Getting the perfect drip rate for a 'drip' cold brew is tricky.
• The type of roast you use plays a role in whether drip or immersion is the right approach.

BEST MOMENTS

‘When you look at immersion, it does range from the Clever all the way to espresso in rates of pressure. ´

‘The press pot or French press is the gateway drug to specialty coffee.’

‘There's so many factors in espresso that the fact that people are getting consistently good cups is a miracle.’
