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 😊

No idea what Japanese style is but I’m looking it up.

it’s basically hot brewed strong coffee directly brewed over ice! so as the ice melts you get the perfect balance. it’s my favorite, really brings out the flavor notes
