These Are The Best Pour-Over Coffee Makers On Amazon

Not only does the Kalita 185 Coffee Dripper come with an impressive 4.7-star Amazon rating, it's also Wirecutter's top pick for best coffee dripper, thanks to its ability to bring out the most pronounced flavors. The lightweight glass dripper retains heat well and is supremely easy to use. Plus the flat-bottom design, with three drain holes, allows for even water drainage. Designed to make 16 to 26 ounces, this coffee dripper is small enough to fit over most mugs but you'll need a large pitcher for larger brews.

The biggest drawback with this model is that you must use the brand's proprietary wave filters, and they're somewhat expensive since they're imported from Japan.

Fans say: "The best coffee dripper that I've owned. Regular coffee now compares to a more expensive blend. I don't know if it's the placement of holes, drip rate, or the paper filters that must be bought to fit; but it works!"

For a dripper-and-carafe-in-one setup, the elegant Classic CHEMEX is a fantastic choice. The pour-over allows you to brew six cups at a time, and you can cover and store the carafe in the fridge until you're ready to reheat. It's made of strong and non-porous Borosilicate glass, plus, it wins points on aesthetics: It comes with a lovely polished wood collar and leather tie. However, since there's a cone-shaped filter, you should be prepared to hover over the dripper with your kettle to pour the water, as one reviewer noted, "bit by bit."

Similar to the Kalita, this CHEMEX dripper requires that you use its proprietary CHEMEX filters (it’s compatible with FP-1, FC-100, FS-100, or FSU-100). While they're also a little pricey, many fans swear that the filters are part of what makes a cup of CHEMEX-brewed coffee so great.

Fans say: "I've had this for a few weeks now and I still get a kick out of using it every morning. It is extremely simple - one piece of glass in the exact right shape, with a little button molded in so you can make half a pot, and a wood handle held on with a rawhide lace. A really cool, timeless design that also happens to make the best coffee I've ever had at home. Make sure you get the Chemex filters to go with it. They're much heavier than the ones from the supermarket and you'll need them both to fit the carafe properly and to make the best coffee."

This pour-over coffee maker from Osaka comes with a stainless steel reusable filter (so you won't have repeated paper filters to factor into your budget), and also includes a shock-resistant Borosilicate glass carafe and a glass lid so you're getting a lot of bang for your buck for less than $30. The double-layer design on the resuable mesh filter is laser cut to prevent grinds or sediment from getting through. The heat-resistant collar (available in four different colors) lets you handle the hot carafe with ease. For caffeine lovers, this carafe has a large, 1.1-liter capacity.​​

Fans say: "The filter is very well [made]. It doesn't need a paper filter, so the coffee keeps all its flavor. The glass is thick enough to feel sturdy without becoming cumbersome. With the size, I'm able to pour about 6 cups of coffee."

Whether you're looking to brew a single cup at a time or you don't want to deal with filters, the Meltera Single Cup Coffee Maker is the way to go. The dishwasher-safe, stainless steel dripper is reusable and eco-friendly, and its ultra-fine mesh keeps coffee grounds and sediment out of your cup. The dripper comes with a removable stand that fits over most cups and mugs, and it boasts a nonslip silicone ring for stability. Plus, it's extremely portable so you can take this with you while traveling.

It's worth noting, however, that since this is a cone-shaped dripper, you'll need to pour small amounts of water in at a time.

Fans say: "I love this product and now use it every morning. I especially liked the pdf of the instructions that I was emailed before the product arrived. It made me excited to try out the product even more. The filter is amazing, it works great and makes a really strong and delicious cup of coffee. I highly recommend it - it is perfect for a quick, delicious, single serving cup."

Having the freshest ground beans can make all the difference for a premium pour-over, and that's where a conical burr grinder comes into play. The OXO Conical Burr Coffee Grinder is reasonably priced at $100 and has a simple, intuitive design. It offers 15 grind size settings, plus additional micro-settings, and its 40-millimeter stainless steel conical burrs create uniform grounds every time.

Fans say: "[...]The consistency of the grind for my pour-over was perfect - SO much better than the inconsistent grind I was getting from my old machine. My morning cup of Joe is better than ever! I was also concerned that it would be noisy, but compared to my old mill grinder, it's really quiet. :-) It's easy to use, too. I simply pour in the amount of beans I want, set the grind # for the kind of coffee I'm preparing, set the timer (it usually takes about 20 seconds for the amount I use) and, voila! It auto-magically appears in the metal cup, which really does help with the static issue so many products have."

Backed by hundreds of Amazon reviews, the Bonavita Gooseneck Kettle is a fan favorite for a reason. The gooseneck spout allows for precise pour control, an essential quality for pour-over coffee brewing. The elegant stainless steel kettle comes with 1500 watts for quick, precise heating — you can adjust the temperature in one-degree increments from 140 degrees to 212 degrees Fahrenheit. The digital display lets you keep on an eye on the temperature in real time and make adjustments if necessary. Plus, it will hold your desired temperature for up to one hour.

Fans say: "[...]Quietly brought water to exact temperature. I found the pour and flow rate perfect. Balanced precisely to allow the maximum amount of water to be easily controlled. Super easy to use controls. The accuracy of the temperature display allowed me to keep my water at a constant heated level. [...]"
