coffee and tea dripper

I used a regular pot with a pour spout 3 months before I purchased this kettle. Let me tell you why the kettle is VASTLY superior to pouring with a pot:

No matter how careful you are while pouring from a pot, the stream has a long ways to travel, and is therefore very brutal on your coffee grounds. I can't tell you how many times I've cussed because something went awry with my pot pour and messed up my coffee grounds.

This kettle is incredible. The design is perfect. You'll be amazed at how smooth the poor comes out of the long spout. Once I received the item, I put regular water in it to test out the pour flow, and even I was impressed with how smooth it was.

Hands-down, this kettle gives you the control you need to make a perfect cup of coffee. It's even flow allows for even extraction, and I could immediately tell a difference in my coffee.

If you're a coffee fanatic (snob) like me, purchase this item.

I make coffee in a Chemex 1-3 Cup Coffee Maker and controlling the pour is important. It's almost impossible to control the pour from a standard kettle. The Buono drip kettle allows very good control and really makes a difference in the coffee. I boil water in a kettle then transfer to the Buono and let the water sit for one minute which gives it time to cool to the right temp (about 92C). I believe it's OK to boil the water in the Buono but I don't. I make sure to dry it when I'm done and only use it to pour. So far, it's been excellent.

This kettle provides an immaculate pour, leaving the grounds undisturbed. The design of the spout eliminates all turbulence, which makes splashing and mis-pours almost impossible. All of that sounds odd and a bit OCD unless you already have the 'right' grinder, you've tried a few pour-over makers, and you're starting to weigh the grinds. In addition, this kettle actually feels nice to pour. It's like a little zen garden on your stovetop.
