SOFI: The most UNIQUE Pour Over Coffee Brewer Ever! 

Let us know how it goes. I've never had much luck with metal filters except the one that came with the Cahlis travel pour-over cup of all things.

Thank you James 🙏 Super excited for you to try it!

James hoffman showing the "little" guys some love, is awesome man. Cant forget the little guys.

I'll be waiting for you to do a review in it. Thanks m8 in advance

Hey there, thank you for buying SOFI and taking the time to leave a detailed comment. We always appreciate hearing from customers, and we're thrilled that you've had a good experience. One of the biggest reasons we became obsessed with this style of brewer is the clarity that it manages to achieve without any paper filter. It proves that self-filtration of the coffee bed does far more than any paper filter can. It just took us some time to figure out that we needed to reduce agitation significantly to achieve this level of clarity. And yes, careful pouring results in a cup with little to no sediment. This sediment also settles by the end of the brew, so if you pour the concentrate out carefully, you can leave this minimal sediment behind as well. A ratio of 1:10 works really well for slightly denser coffees, and we use this too. 1:6 is just a solid starting point that we found during our testing. As for the fit, you're absolutely right. It's something we're looking to improve in the future. The way the pieces fit together at room temperature changes when things are hot, and it's a tricky balance. Your feedback is noted, though and the handling is something that were looking at very seriously. Lastly, the "precision" holes. We can assure you that this is not deception and more a relative term when compared to the traditional South Indian filters available here. If you compare it to those, you would agree that SOFI has far more precise holes. Compared to precision espresso baskets, however, you are correct, this would not qualify as precision. It's also important to consider that the level of precision required for brewing at atmospheric pressure is much lower than for brewing at 9 bars of pressure. These holes are also punched as opposed to drilled and as you have noticed, there's been no negative impact in the cup. That being said, maybe we can find a better word for marketing purposes in the future. Thanks again for buying SOFI! It's a truly versatile brewer, and we hope you tinker and find new and exciting ways to make delicious coffee with it.

Send us an email. We'll see what we can do. :)

Thank you!! We’re so glad it’s been an upgrade. Hopefully it’s was a similar experience with the build quality.

Thank you 🙏

The reason we made this one is because we realised how capable the original one is when using the right technique. SOFI just refines the overall experience with much better build quality, airflow vents to prevent stalling and better holes and coverage.

​@@aramseLooking forward to it!

I'd love to see a longer video showing off brewing with this. 🤞

@@Kiaulenwe have a full video brewing with the previous version which is still relevant. But a dedicated video is coming.

Yes we ship to the EU

Or even the South Indian Coffee Filter, for that matter.

Please send us an email to brew@aramse.coffee and we'll look into it

We’ve had other v1 customers who’ve done this. The slot on v2 is 1mm x 5mm which was just large enough to allow for pretty much unrestricted flow. So you could do may one 2mm hole but you do risk damaging it. The vibrations can cause vertical cracks. So while it would help with air flow we don’t necessarily recommend it.

@@aramse All good informaiton, thank you.

A dremmel might be a good way to go

Huge upgrade on build quality (50% heavier), much higher quality materials, air flow vents to prevent stalling and much more modern looking.

@@aramse please do put me ut a video on this as well. The air vents is a good ideas and happy to see that R&D innovations on a SIF area happening in general. Make a better WD tool though.

Absolutely

And we just opened pre orders for batch 2 🎉

@@aramse I know ;)

The site was down for a day. Back up now! Sorry about that.

Absolutely. We’re working on an updated brew guide video with a ton of tips and tricks.

@@aramse Awesome! I'll look forward to it!

I use 250ml brewing water which is pretty much maximum, I guess

The bottom chamber can hold ~280ml. If you want a larger drink then you can pulse pour and use another carafe but you’ll need to figure out how to prop up the brewer.

$39.99 + shipping

I guess you haven’t read the description or checked out the webpage. Yes it’s the South Indian Filter with a bunch of improvements.

Agree, I didn't read the description, but why not mention that in the video? The video just says "new and improved, modern design", implying you designed it. Plus, the video didn't not mention South Indian filter coffee. The video is the main content on this platform, description remains hidden unless someone clicks on it.

@@aniketn3 this is the second version of the product. Also anyone who wants to buy it will need to navigate to the product page to buy it where they will see the South Indian Filter mentioned. This is also just a promo and it’s meant to be intriguing and raise curiosity. We will be posting a full brew guide where we will mention the SIF. And lastly, while it’s subtle this is our own design. You won’t find another filter on the market with this form or with the air flow vents or with such precise holes. Hope that clarifies things.

Sold out?

It’s $39.99. Unfortunately shipping rates have increased and these are the lowest we could find. It works out quite a bit cheaper if you order more pieces. So if you know someone else who wants one you can order together.

Agree. Ridiculous but fanboys will buy anything these days, after seeing dramatic RU-vid ad.
