If you brew for yourself and your partner, or flatmates, family or colleagues - this is a great option for you. If you run a cafe and want to offer better-quality batch brew or to brew multiple filter brews at once with great results - this is a great option for you. If you're brewing at events - this is a great option for you. If you just like to brew one time per day and take the coffee with you in a flask - this is a great option for you. This brewer is for anyone that wants to make a tasty bigger batch, with low effort and consistency.
For two or more The Big Boy pour over coffee maker is made for big brews, with an optimal dose range of 40g-60g of coffee for 600ml to 1 litre. You can go as low as 32g or as high as 80g with the right recipe, but we recommend to keep pours big (200ml+ per pour) for optimal performance. So if you brew lower quantities, grind finer and use bigger pours.
Big, brutal, but beautiful This is definitely our most brutal design. It's big, toothy, aggressive - a bit of a departure from our normal design language. But we love it - because the form really follows the function here. This brutal toothy design is also super-optimised and contributes to the great performance under big volumes. It also leads to its consistency. What you will notice is that while the brewer is big and brutal, it drips gentle drops - it is really beautiful to see. We hope you will love it!
Prepare coffee for two or more in just 3-4 minutes using a pour-over dripper. With suitable recipes and for most coffee types, you can make between 600ml to 1 litre in approximately 3-4 minutes. If you use the Negotiator system with a quick-drying paper such as the Sibarist FAST, you can optimize your brewing time. Additionally, you can experiment with grind size and pouring volume to achieve your desired flavor profile. This brewing device, like all our options, offers a high degree of versatility. However, you can also opt for a straightforward approach by utilizing our wave filters.
Compatible with our flat papers and the Negotiator : For those that enjoy more paper options, the Big Boy is compatible with all of our Large/185 flat papers when using the Big Boy Negotiator tool. This is a simple way to insert a FAST Sibarist paper, the new Type C - Clarity paper, or our classic Type G flat paper. Experiment with faster brew times, finer grinds and different cup profiles while creating more space in the brewer with a super-precise tight fit of the paper to the brewer walls.
What the batch? In specialty coffee, some people are a bit too snobby. There's too much nonsense around the idea that brewing bigger size brews can't taste great. Part of this is because the devices we have now aren't so good at it - creating a myth that only brewing 12g can yield tasty coffee in the cup. We approached this project with a totally open mind - designing a big brewer for big brews rather than trying to adapt an existing one for more volume.
