Where Craft Meets Science: A HARIO × Tri-Up Crossover Special
When the century-old Japanese glassmaker HARIO meets Taiwan's specialty coffee benchmark Tri-Up, together with Tao Zuo Fang's famous “Old Rock Clay” , the result is this dripper built for ultimate flow control: the 02 FLOW Old Rock Clay Flat-Bottom Dripper. It's more than a piece of coffee gear; it's a work of art with a far-infrared effect that refines water and flavour.
✨ Key Features
• Exclusive “Old Rock Clay”:
Fired several times at high temperatures, Old Rock Clay has a texture similar to zisha (purple clay) and is rich in minerals. Its unique pores transform the water, making the coffee rounder and sweeter, and its excellent heat retention keeps the temperature stable throughout extraction.
• Flat-bottom structure developed by Tri-Up:
Unlike traditional cone drippers, the flat bottom creates a more even coffee bed, reducing the risk of over-extraction. A special flow-guiding design at the base (FLOW) keeps the flow smooth and free of clogging, maintaining a steady flow rate even with a very fine grind.
• No folding needed, more intuitive to use:
Designed for 1 to 4 cups, its special internal ribs and base support let the filter paper sit perfectly with no tricky folding required. Beginners will find it easy to pick up, while experts can control flavour with precision.
• Understated Eastern aesthetics:
The black FDCR-02-B has the rugged look of raw rock with understated luxury, and every dripper has its own unique texture and colouring, showing the warmth of artisan handwork.
💡 Why Should You Own One?
If you're tired of the uneven extraction cone drippers are prone to, or you want a fuller “body” and more “sweetness” in your pour-over, the 02 FLOW Old Rock Clay Dripper is your ideal choice. It's forgiving yet has a very high flavour ceiling, making it a must-have on every serious home brewer's list.
