NextLevel PULSAR Brewer

Simplest way to brew consistently great drip coffee
Pulsar gives the same control as an Aeropress, but it's even easier to use, and the brew is closer to drip coffee
It took several brews to find the grind settings, but after that, every cup of coffee is consistently great.

My hit rate for amazing coffee is 100% so far on this brewer. Want high clarity? There's a way to get it. Really like body in your coffee? You can have that too. I love my V60 but this has become my daily driver for filter brews.

Ordered this after seeing DAK use it in their tasting experience. It has been fun to use so far and brews great coffee.

After a couple of weeks of playing with the pulsar I’ve come to appreciate the hybrid nature of the brew. The combination of infusion and percolation allows a very flexible but consistent brew. The build of the device may need some improvements, I find after 3-4 uses the lock mechanism leaks a bit, no matter how I try you always get a couple of drops. Overall a fun new toy that allows a new perspective on your daily brew. Works great for both hot and iced brews.

Pretty much a no brainer, this dripper is by far the easiest one in my collection. It took a while to figure out the grind but we’re there now.

My only complaint is that a couple of times the filter has not seated properly and run a bunch of grounds through. I don’t think it was user error, but I guess it could be??

The filters can be a little expensive and the workflow isnt the best but I love the coffee this thing make its so consistent.

Zero bypass meets steep and release, makes great coffee.

While the aeropress is pretty straight forward and makes a great cup of coffee, this device has more potential, but with a steeper learning curve.

Full control is only as good as the end user.

This is a great addition to my brewer collection and once perfected, can make a delightful cup of Joe.

Just had my first cup with this brewer and it made me the best decaf coffee I have ever had. The brew was smooth and full of flavour. To be fair, before this I had only had cheap auto drippers and recently been using an aeropress and a clever brewer. So this is really my first serious percolation brewer...

Anticipate lots of geeky fun in this tasty new hobby.

This brewer is a mix of both worlds and have uncountable possibilities.

Came from Hario V60. I am a busy person but I want good coffee and this brewer simplified my brewing process by a lot.

Love the versatility, can be a super easy brewer but you can also play around with it

Awesome brewer, deffinitly next level so many variables to brew up different cups and they always taste good!

Great brewer! Easy to learn, even my first brew with the Pulsar was noticeably better tasting than the Origami i was coming from. I use my Pulsar most days now

My one concern is whether I'm cleaning the base of the brewer sufficiently, both in the grooves underneath and inside the valve

I purchased this brewer from Eight Ounce about 8 months ago and it has replaced my Aeropress as my daily driver. It is a somewhat similar brewer, in that it is zero bypass and nearly infinitely flexible in its ability to let the user play around with brewing methods. At $90, it’s not cheap, especially compared to a plastic V60, but, it did allow me to brew a more “bright” V60-like cup than my Aeropress is really capable of without the cost of buying a proper gooseneck kettle. Nor the learning curve required to master the V60. In addition, its higher capacity make it a better home brewer for us. Recipes abound but I recommend ARAMSE’s YouTube video from about a year ago, as the three he offers will give a nice grounding. Plus he has a rather British sense of humour.

I should also note, cleaning is easy: Get rid of the filter and grounds. Throw in dishwasher. After 8 months of near daily use, no harm is apparent.

Does what most of my other drippers do, wish I bought a Pulsar first!

Th brewer is so versatile and gives you control over everything. The coffees I have brewed so far were round and sweet with low acidity but there are tons of recipes to try and I am pretty sure it is capable of producing a nice acidity as well. The only complaint I have is the base material which feels kind of cheap.

This product is so well made and so easy to use! I’ve made a recipe that’s flawless with this bad boy 🤩

The versatility and personalization in brewing is amazing! I have not had a bad cup! ARAMSE on Youtube has a great video with a variety of recipes. The best brewer I have ever used.

I have been enjoying the brewer since I received mine.

Have been experimenting with this new brewer. So far no bad cups though the ones with a coarser grind give a fuller flavor.

The Pulsar has replaced my V60 and Stagg X for daily use.
It's consistently been making the sweetest and best tasting coffee I think i have ever had.

This is the best filter coffee brewer I've ever used, of any kind. The cups are consistent, sweet, bursting with flavor, and perfection can be achieved with less coffee than other methods, saving money on expensive beans. Wonderful product all around. It's even easy to clean!

Well built and a really nice size. A good alternative to the switch or clever. The filters are fast flowing and the adjustable flow makes for almost infinite brews. Clean up is pretty good, just have to be careful when removing the cylinder. I don't think you can go wrong with this purchase.

The Pulsar makes it very easy to get extremely delicious and repeatable results. It’s better and more consistent than a V60 with about the same amount of fuss. Use the pocket science recipe https://pocketsciencecoffee.com/2023/10/01/how-to-brew-on-pulsar-coming-from-v60
