We have long been an Aeropress household but decided to buy an Etkin 8-cup as our foray into pourovers for busy mornings because we had a bunch of old regular flat bottom filters sitting in our pantry. We've now had it for a few months and have discovered that (1) for two 10-12ish oz servings, we need to finish pouring before the three-minute mark in order for everything to flow down by the end of six minutes, (2) different types of beans and roasts result in slower or faster draw downs, and (3) we range between 28-31 clicks on our Comandante grinder depending on #2. Granted, this took some trial and error, and we also found comfort in our Aeropress being readily available if things were to go awry. Now that we've figured out the variables and our routine with the Etkin, we're really happy with its simplicity, ease of cleaning, and minimal required accessories.

Makes the perfect cup of coffee, big enough to brew for multiple people. Also feels very well made/built. Compatible with the ratio 6 coffee machine

We bought the 8 cup dripper so that we could make pour-overs for a crowd and we loved it. We wanted to try the 2 cup for just my husband and me, and we love this one just as much.
The porcelain is smooth and feels nice in my hands. It brews wonderfully and is easy to clean.

After growing frustrated with my auto drip coffee makers, I was looking for a larger manual (pour over) drip coffee solution. I was pleased to find that Etkin makes the solution. The large ceramic dripper quickly makes enough coffee for my wife and I in the morning. The coffee tastes far better than any auto machine. After several batches, I now find the process simple and consistent. A great product!

Ratio six is handy for busy mornings that require batch brewing. Etkin dripper is a perfect upgrade to the dripper tray - it fits the carafe perfectly and ratio six’s shower screen pours really nicely into etkin dripper. The resulting coffee is as tasty as hand dripped coffee.
Etkin is also very easy to clean, well built, and good looking! Really awesome product.

Love it

Love using this for small house parties; everyone wants coffee and its fun to use.
The carafe seems quite delicate, and I worry a bit about how thin the handle is regarding durability, but the set up is wonderful.
I had an issue with my shipment initially but Aaron in customer service was able to help me very quickly. Overall it's been a great experience.
Just expect to be patient with such a large pour over amount, it takes about 5 minutes.

Great kit.

I make 1,100 G of coffee every morning. When I bought my dripper carafe I also bought the filters. After running out of paper filters, I found that other filters create a much slower flow rate no matter how much I open up my fellows grinder.

Beautiful design, brews just as expected and holds a huge amount of coffee for huge groups.
I do wish there was a lid or cover so I can have it on a warmer for long periods of time, so I will have to be creative until Etkin comes out with one hopefully. And I will buy it!

Amazing customer service, thank you for helping me with my shipping issue I had!

I received Bunn brand filters in a box, compatible with the 8-cup dripper.

I am really enjoying my new dripper and carafe.

This carafe is of great quality, however, it feels somewhat fragile, I would like it to be thicker glass, but it is designed perfectly for the etkin 8-cup dripper.

There is not much to say, simply the dripper and this carafe were born to live together, personally I like it a lot.

The quality of the material and manufacturing of this dripper is incredible, this is of the highest quality. In my V60 dripper I could not get the amount of coffee for 3 people, with the etkin dripper I have managed to get 4 210ml cups without problems, achieving a delicious coffee with sweet and smooth flavors on the palate.

My preparation time has exceeded 6 minutes, however, I have to perfect my technique.

A beautiful, elegant, high-quality dripper, easy to clean and that allows 1L of coffee, I have verified this myself.

Recommended 100%.

I love this carafe. It fits the 8 cup dripper perfectly and looks so nice on the coffee bar.

there are a limited number of "high capacity" pour-over devices out there... fellows xf, big joe, maybe a couple others...?

this stands head and shoulders above its competitors by combining these key variables into its design: capacity; ubiquitous filter compatibility; double-walled; sustainable construction (this could be a faulty assumption that ceramics are less resource intensive than plastic (big joe) or vacuum-stainless (fellows)).

i also opted for a hario V60 thermal carafe model 03 (800mL capacity) which comes in white, making for an aesthetically pleasing setup that beats out the fellows XF combo both in price and capacity. the outer edge of the lip on the bottom of the dripper is just barely bigger than the opening of the V60 carafe, but it still sits securely enough to preclude any concern about tipping over.

just something to bear in mind if not buying the dripper+carafe set is that your receiving vessel opening has to be smaller than about 2.8" in diameter, or larger than roughly 3.5" in diameter, so that the bottom lip on this dripper sits flush.

many other thermal carafes should work, but the majority are taller with a narrow opening, making for a setup potentially less stable for my liking with a combination of scalding hot water, ceramics, and an under-caffeinated brain.

in closing, the chemex has long been the benchmark for high-capacity "centerpiece" pourover setups. but this is just as attractive of a piece, with more modularity and "brew now, drink later" functionality.
