The most common point of failure in pour-over brewing is a lack of control over the water. We consider the Hario Buono Kettle to be an essential instrument because it solves this problem perfectly. It transforms the act of pouring from a chaotic variable into a precise and repeatable skill. This level of control is the key to achieving a consistently even extraction and, ultimately, the best possible flavor from your coffee beans, fully honoring the craft that went into their cultivation and roasting.
The kettle's performance is a direct result of its iconic gooseneck spout. This design is engineered to create a predictable, unbroken stream of water, allowing you to control the flow rate with subtle tilts of your wrist. You can pour as slowly and as gently as needed to saturate the coffee grounds evenly without disturbing the coffee bed. This deliberate application of water is what prevents channeling and ensures every particle of coffee contributes equally to the final brew.
This version of the iconic Buono brings a modern, understated aesthetic to your coffee ritual. The matte black finish feels as good as it looks, providing a tactile satisfaction every time you pick it up. The lightweight stainless steel body is durable, and the ergonomic handle provides a comfortable, secure grip. It is a simple, beautiful, and indispensable instrument for anyone serious about the craft of manual coffee brewing.
