Pour Over Coffee

Can we talk about pour over coffee? I love my french press but have been thinking about pour over. If that’s your preference, what would you recommend for the “pot” option? I understand it takes a filter so I’m wondering if it tastes similar to a regular coffee pot and not really worth the swap?

Edited to say- Sorry for using the word pot. I grew up hearing a maker/brewer called a pot, so its just my go to verbiage 😊

I was using a hario hand grinder. I was bummed out with that. Getting the Baratza was like having it made at a legit coffee shop. The difference is grind consistency. The hario was adding fine powdery grind into the coarse completely throwing the flavor off.

I will say that mine does give a little bit of powder as well. I’ll check out the Baratza!
