The Stagg XF by Fellow Products: A Different Kind of Pourover Brewer 

I normally don’t comment on videos, but this was so helpful. I’ve been struggling to get the flavor profile I know I can get out of my favorite light roast and this helped me get it back on track. Thanks for your knowledge!

I got one of these as a gift for Christmas. This video has been immensely helpful in learning how to use this set and your recipe + grind settings were spot on for me. Thanks for taking the time to make and share it!

To someone who’s still trying to figure out the pourover art, this was a fantastic video. I wish more videos had more basic ratio information like this.

Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!

great review--they are calling them anti-clog to highlight the problem that sometimes happens with the Kalita when the wet paper forms a seal with all three holes and slows drainage. It is why some people put a screen (suggested by Scott Rao) between the filter paper and the bottom of the dripper.

Hi I would just like to point out that the gasket under the Stagg X has these ridges that I believe are meant for air to escape/be pushed through during brewer so a carafe/decanter with a spout may not be necessary.

Going to try a level six grind on my ode tomorrow, using this brewer.

For me the weak link in pour over is the glass carafe, regardless of which method you use. For my Moccamaster KBGV Select I immediately pour the coffee into a 1 liter Alfi Hotello carafe. After years of using an Alfi Juwel, the Hotello was a bit of a revelation because there's no glass thermal chamber inside to break, and no rubber seal at all around the lid. The lid is about 1" high and hollow and keeps the coffee hot for over 90 minutes. I liked this so much and got so tired of feeling like I had to rush my pour over coffee drinking before it got cold that I bought another l6 liter version of the Alfi Hotello carafe and now I do the pour over coffee directly into the Hotello (setting a Kalita dripper over the hotello on the scale instead of a glass carafe). You can't do this visually, you need to use a scale, but if you have a scale it works great, and that way I can drink the pour over at my leisure without it getting too cold too fast.

Great video, thanks!

very enjoyable videos

You guys are great. Love your content.I’d love to see a review of the Espro bloom ... I’ve been using it over the past 4 months and it has become my favourite pour over method ! Maybe in the near future ?

I just tried mine out first time today, and the brew was done in 2mins. i ground it on the ode with the dial at 3 and noticed that the drawdown was much quicker than i expected.

Nice review. I'm interested in this and the Espro Bloom, but can't bring myself to spend over double the price on filters as good Cafec V60 papers. I'm sure that's in their business model, but overall I think they lose out on more customers/money going this way.

Love the channel! I am going to give your recipe a go soon. what is your recommended click number for grinding on the comandante C4O? Thanks.

good tips. Thank you! Feel like this is required viewing if you own one of these....

I'm using a Niche Zero grinder. For Espresso I'm at a dial setting of 15, at a setting of 45 I'm still finding fairy slow flow on the XF (taking almost 5 minutes for all the water to drain through). Wondering if I'm doing something wrong, or if I should still be grinding even coarser? Cups actually seem a bit watery despite the slow extraction, worried that will taste under extracted if I go even coarser...

What setting on ode grinder did you use?

Thank you for your review. Would you use the same method for 36gr of coffee?

Does one have to grind coarser than the grind size of an equivalent V60?

I’ve needed to grind finer than v60 or it drains fast.

Wow, great recipe, thank you! I got my Stagg XF recently and I very much like the coffee from it. I love the fact that you provided grinding setting for that many grinders. Although I am a bit surprised to see 20 for Baratza Encore - I was grinding on that one with level 13. But I am very excited to try your exact recipe!

Does this mean your last pour is 25 grams? 75+50+50+50+50+50+50+25?

You guys should try to do a colab with James Hoffman! Love both of your channels :)

Any suggestions for a king grinder k6?

Love this video! I know this might be a weird question, but how can I tweak the ratio for the end result to taste closer to an espresso (I like adding milk to my coffee so would like it to be a little bit denser and stronger)?

What is your elapsed time between pours after the first 70g?

Thank you for expert explanation Note: Why everyone always wear a cap backward in video on TV &Video indoor?

A 6 on the Ode? I don’t know if I’ve ever used anything higher than 4, ever... interesting for sure.

Great recipe and video- your suggestion of 50ml at a time definitely allows a more even extraction with this brewer in particular creating a very sweet and rounded profile- I don’t think the height of the XF offers any advantages vs the X because you would follow a similar brew method and produce the same results. Therefore I’d recommend going for the smaller Stagg X if deciding between the 2.

Is the method with the [x] going to be the same, just with smaller amounts?

On your Ode settings listed here, that’s with the stock burr set and not swapped for like the SSP set?

Which electronic scale is that you are using?

Thanks for the video. Does that mean the v60 filter works for this?

What setting do you use on the ode grinder for this dripper?

Will the kalita wave 185 filters work with this brewer? Or in general does anyone know any alternative? Thanks in advance

Would the XF work with smaller doses like 12-14grams in 1:15-1:16 ratios?

What scale do you use? It’s small and very nice looking.

Excellent Video! I recently purchased The ODE Gen 2 Grinder. Which grind setting do you think would match the number 6 position on your grinder? Im awaiting the XF set as we speak.

any metallic taste in the coffee? :)

I am watching now. This one looks interesting but does not provide much coffee. I need ~3 cups in the am.

What glass carafe is that you're using?

Temp of water??

A set of 45 filters for Stagg is 12 euros. A set of 100 V60 Hario 02 filters is 5 euros. This is a major reason i never wanted to purchase this brewer even though i love Fellow products. I really don't understand why are their filters so expensive.

Bruh. Grinding at a 6. What are you doing? I tried it and my brew has minimal flavor.

Great videos, you should check out the Blue Bottle dripper!

So impressed that someone said grams of water. Get so annoyed when people use a weighing scale and talk milliliters of water.

looks like a solution waiting for a problem - KISS - go for a KALITA

I'll save everyone some math -- every coffee to water ratio mentioned is 60g / 1 liter. (why not just say that??)

“Solvent”? Unless there’s an option other than water, there’s no good reason to say “solvent” rather than “water.” Coffee jargon is so stupidly pretentious.
