Method:
Step 1: Prepare Your Equipment:
- Place a paper filter in the Clever Dripper and rinse it with hot water to remove any papery taste. Discard the rinse water.

Step 2: Measure and Add Coffee:

Step 3: Add Water:
- Heat water to the desired brewing temperature (around 90-96°C).
- Pour the hot water over the coffee grounds, ensuring all the grounds are saturated. Use a gentle circular motion to make sure the coffee is evenly wet.
Step 4: Steeping:
- Place the lid on the Clever Dripper and let the coffee steep for about 2-4 minutes, depending on your taste preference. Adjust the steeping time to control the strength of your brew.
Step 5: Release and Stir:
- Once the steeping time is complete, place the Clever Dripper on top of your mug. The valve at the bottom will release the brewed coffee.
- Give the coffee a gentle stir to ensure uniform extraction.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy:
- Pour the brewed coffee into your favourite mug.
- Customise your coffee with milk, sugar, or enjoy it black.
Optional Tips:
- Experiment with different coffee-to-water ratios for varying strengths.
