I've been a Toddy brew coffee drinker for a long time with cheap, but rich tasting, Community New Orleans Blend (coffee with chicory). When my Toddy tub cracked after extended use, I decided to look at other alternatives that weren't plastic and longer lasting -- this is how I stumbled upon this Yama brewer. Of course, the fact that I have a PhD in chemistry and this reminds me of glassware from lab days gone by helped sell me on it, but the great reviews on the taste of the coffee it made really was what convinced me.It comes with minimal instructions. Presumably because everyone eventually tweaks things to get to their desired end result. That can make the initial ramp time somewhat hit-or-miss and potentially turn people off to this brewer before they get to the point where they are producing great coffee.
Some tips I'll share:
1 - Use an additional paper filter at the bottom of the column of coffee (on top of the ceramic filter) to further slow the path of water out of the column of coffee.
2 - I use 1 pound of Community New Orleans Blend and 1500mL of water and around 1500mL of ice in the top reservoir.
3 - I then use around 1.5 cups of water to slowly pre-wet the column of coffee. To do this I wet my finger tip and plug the hole at the bottom and then slowly add 1/4 cup of water at a time to the column of coffee grounds and let the coffee soak it up and repeat until your column of coffee has wicked moisture throughout. The process should take less than 5 minutes and ever since I've added this step, I've not once ever had a bad pot of coffee from this brewer. Depending on your choice of coffee, grind, oil content, etc. this may be unnecessary, but it definitely never hurts and absolutely ensures a good pot of coffee. Skipping this step can often lead to 1/2 or more of your coffee grounds never touching the water that drips through the column (again depending on the type/grind/oil content.
4 - I let the water drip at 1 drop per second and when it's done mix it thoroughly.
The resulting coffee is pretty concentrated. I typically dilute it 1:1 with water, but this is purely personal preference on how strong or diluted you like your coffee.
The resulting coffee is super smooth, very rich, absolutely no acidic taste or bitterness. This brewer was a great find and an awesome addition to our home.
