A fool-proof and inexpensive full-immersion method of brewing coffee, this little gem is as familiar as a drip machine - it uses #4 filters (Kalita 103) - and is simple to use. The resulting coffee retains much of the delicious body of a French press, but does away with the sediment.

    A fool-proof and inexpensive full-immersion method of brewing coffee, this little gem is as familiar as a drip machine - it uses #4 filters - and is as simple to use as a French press.

    The resulting coffee retains much of the delicious body of a French press, but does away with the sediment. The steep-and-release mechanism means that you can accurately control the brewing, and extract the coffee directly into your mug with no mess.

    And at this price, it's about one of the best value brewers you can find.

Fanatastic little brewer

After using the Handy brewer for tea, I was curious about a steep-release coffee maker.

The CLEVER is wonderful and works well. It brews delicious coffee with a lot of body but retains the benefits of a paper filter.

I highly recommend this brewer to anyone interested in immersion brewing who doesn't want to deal with lots of coffee oil.

I think the best place to start to learn about home coffee brewing.

Not as finicky as some other brew methods...so goof for a newbee. Check out the James Hoffman youtube video on the Clever...very helpfull.

Great taste

I really like the flavor of the coffee from this method. It's smoother than a press.
I also like the easy clean up.

Practically Perfect Brew Method

Combines the clean flavour of a pour over with a paper filter with the extraction of a french press.... all with super easy clean up! LOVE IT!
Previously, I used a Chemex nearly every morning to do a pour over, a recent shortage of paper filters resulted in exploring other options. I find most french presses to be a bit too gritty and intense, I've done a french press followed by a paper filter before but it was too much work.
Clever Dripper has given me the best of both worlds, full long extraction, with a clean cup from the paper filter, without any of the fuss of a pour over. Wow. Dead simple, excellent cup of coffee every single morning!
