Each Torch dripper set features an exquisite, black or white, Japanese Mino Yaki style porcelain dripper with an untreated, white ash base. Over time the attractive wooden base gains additional character from the natural patterns and staining of regular use.

Customer Questions

Question What's the different between the Donut Dripper and the Mountain Dripper?

Answer Donut dripper takes up to 4 cups and created for dark roasted beans which is the main trend in Japanese coffee beans. It has more h\eight than that Mountain so more beans hit the coffee grounds, giving the coffee a more heavy taste balance, which again works very well with dark roasted beans.

The Mountain Dripper takes up to 2 cups created with the Donut in mind but designed more for Third wave / Western coffee bean culture with hints of acidity and fruitiness. Overall it drips slightly faster than the Donut and produces a more "clean" taste pallet great for light-medium roasted beans.

Question: How does the dripper align with the wooden base? Does it have ridges for the dripper to be stable?

Answer: The porcelain dripper just sits lightly on top of the wooden base. It does not have any ridges. Since the wooden base and ceramic drippers are each individually hand made, they are not "perfectly" constructed and you may need to find the "right spot" for the dripper to sit on the base. Personally, our team at Kurasu usually don't have any issues of the dripper titling for example, while extracting coffee.

Laura F. said: Mixed reaction

Your service is tremendously fast. I love the aesthetic of this, and the ease of cleaning the ceramic. I am disappointed with the wood, though - the unfinished surface is rough, and it is virtually impossible to clean off fallen coffee grounds and will stain easily if coffee drips onto it. Also was not prepared for the size of the 'donut hole' and the speed of the water flow. By using an extremely fine grind and more coffee than I normally would, I can get a drinkable brew but I regret not doing more research and going with a Kinto slow coffee system.

Howard Kim said: I like Donuts

I purchased the TORCH Donut Dripper together with the Miyaco Single Drip and I find that this is a great combo. The simplicity of both make my mornings more something to look forward to. I had always wondered if there was a way to properly reuse other filters that I had in my cupboard with other drippers and now there is one. I also like the aesthetic of the white ash wood ring against the clean white ceramic. I do find myself trying to keep the wood ring from getting wet and stained to try and keep it looking new. Although stained has it's own appeal as well. ^^v

Very similar to a chemex 3-cup in terms of height, size, and speed of brew. Workmanship is perfect, and I hope to experiment with it for many years to come.

Ryosuke Miwa said: Beautifully crafted dripper

I was looking for a dripper that is a little different along with my old-school Kalita Wave 185. While I love the easy-to-use Kalita, I also found the Torch Donut dripper easy to use. reliable and very much sophisticated.

If you are e looking for something that is not mainstream in many senses, you should definitely try this!

Hi Ryosuke, Thanks so much for the great review. Hope you continue to enjoy!

Been using the hario buono kettle for a while and decided i needed an upgrade. So i got the yukiwa kettle and i dont regret it one bit. The pour rate and gripping of the kettle is second to none!

Dear Hazwan, thank you very much for your review! Yukiwa is absolutely a good choice, they are beautiful and great to use! thanks again :)

Annabelle Rasco said: Attractive

I like the priduct, butthe donut hole is not as snugged or fitted perfectly to the ceramic filter. I ould still see some gap. Still, I dont regret purchasing it.

Hi Annabelle, thank you for your review! We recognize that gap, and the manufacturer told us that that's due to its design and the part of the character of this wooden product. We hope you will love that character and it won't cause any inconvenience for you!

Angela B. said: Great Service, Product and Quick Shipping

Loved buying my husband a great Donut drip coffee maker from Kurasu - truly authentic Japanese quality product. Shipped SO fast to Australia. Exactly as I thought it would be from the description ( I ordered the large Donut and this is still probably a 1 person cup size .. I don’t know who’d want the small) … Love it. Thanks so much! keep up the great work.

Nick Brehany said: Interesting Dripper

Out of the several pourover drippers I have used, the Torch Donut is one of my favorites. I see it as some sort of odd lovechild between the V60 and Kalita Wave. That being said it's both but neither at the same time. It's not as big as it looks in photos, and I wouldn't brew more than 25 grams of coffee at a time. Also, the filters are pretty annoying and sometimes hinder the process, but overall it's a great addition to anyone's coffee arsenal.
