BREWING COFFEE: ESPRO BLOOM POUR-OVER
/Trying to find a great way to brew your morning coffee with the best pour-over equipment is hard to find with the never-ending amount of information online these days. So how do you remove the chaff and find the right info in the coffee industry? The best way is to follow us. We are constantly looking for the best ways to brew and make coffee, which means that we are never content with being just good enough. With that being said, we have recently been doing tons of research trying to find the best pour-over and finding the best brew method for that pour-over, which brought us to the Espro Bloom.
The Espro Bloom is a flat bottom pour-over, but instead of having a few holes on the bottom to slow the draw-through, this flat bottom pour-over has micro perforations along the entire bottom, similar to what you would see on the bottom of a portafilter basket. The shape of the vessel allows for the most even extraction possible, which is why we recommend this vessel as our top choice for the best tasting pour-over coffee. We will be offering this vessel on our website for sale within the next week or so and our pour-over method for this vessel is as follows. We hope you enjoy!
