What is the difference between Pour Over and regular drip?

-The distinction between hand-brewed coffee and coffee from a drip machine primarily lies in the flavor. Unless you're using a high-quality machine, most drip coffee tends to taste a bit bland and diluted, especially when compared to a meticulously prepared pour over.

It's essential to understand that not all coffees react the same way, even if they're brewed using identical methods. Besides the quality of the beans, several elements during the brewing process influence flavor extraction.

Factors like water temperature, pouring technique, coffee-to-water ratio, and overall brewing time play a crucial role in how your coffee tastes. While machines offer ease, they limit your control over the final flavor of your cup.

On the other hand, pour overs empower you to tweak various brewing parameters based on the specific characteristics of your coffee.
