There was another tester that also had issues with the drain time and he found that often the filter was not touching the drain plate making then essential bottomless. When he took great care to seat the paper fully he got consistent results.
Very much enjoy your content. Like you, I know what I like in my coffee, but by no means do I claim to be a professional barista. Keep up the entertaining reviews.
Love your work Jack. The Varia Flo although it’s an acronym it’s kind of misleading and was hoping it was an adjustable flow like the sworks or pulsar. IMHO I think Varia missed the mark on this one especially with the price of the attachments. The sworks brewer lets you not only control the flow but has different attachments but it’s almost twice the price but well worth it.
Thx for watching. I still don’t know which one to keep- Orea or Varia. Haven’t really thought about Sworks brewer. Is it that good? I have Pulsar but use it mostly for brewing cascara coffee.
@@mycoffeeshow111 I keep two sworks brewers. One at home and one in my travel bag. It’s my favorite along with the UFO at the moment. Personally I’d keep the orea for its ability to use conical or flats.
Amazing as always! I must admit that I didn't always love filter and preferred espresso over filter. However, more recently, when I've been having funkier and funkier coffees, it's very apparent that filter can be incredible. I got an Orea V4 narrow when the pre-orders were available and have been using it the last few months. In comparison to a V60, with their newer bottom, I always chose the Orea. I think it's a great purchase. However, I do feel that following the pre-order, it's not great value for money. Quite a bit expensive for what it offered but hey, value is a relative term. I'm still waiting on my negotiator to try different papers. Can't wait!
Thx for watching. I really like Orea and if it wasn’t for the channel I would not buy any other brewers. Like yourself I was always a fan of espresso based coffee but since I started experimenting with drippers I really enjoy them as well. I use them usually for more expensive coffee that I wouldn’t risk to dial in for espresso.
@@mycoffeeshow111 I can absolutely relate! I do also find that expensive coffees can end up tasting better on filter because they are so full of flavour that it's nice to tame them down a little! I must admit that whilst filter is easier, it's not that easy for me. Whilst the dialing in isn't that tight when it comes to grind size, there are still so many variables! If you know what you're doing, coffee can change so much. It's an epic journey
@@gero77 if I get coffee that I know is good but doesn’t taste great for espresso I try it for pour overs. I think I am getting better at this but still far from mastering the subject.
Much better than any plastic mixing with hot water! Plastic off-gases and ends up in your brew with no taste. BTW, Any navigation opposite from south is towards north center. East to west is a circle...LOL :-)
@@mycoffeeshow111 I use a ceramic Bovetta , it also has a close/open silicon so you can control when to let it drip. Pretty cool so far. I broke the first, now more careful and had it for a few years. Cheers!
@@mycoffeeshow111 Come on, you can be a bit more careful. If you are careful in product reviews, you can be careful not to break glass. Perhaps you will want to test it some day? Now I think I got your attention! LOL. Cheers mate!
@@philindeblanc I dropped soo many expensive wine glasses that now I only drink from the cheapest ones. But since Orea gave me a very generous discount I may as well buy glass brewers to test.

Thx for the advice. I have noticed it is a bit tricky to position the filter properly. I hope there will be a negotiator available for this brewer.
I don't care much for pour overs - still watched the video and enjoyed it. That's how it should be. Thx
Thank you for your support. Btw, try pour over at good coffee place and you will be surprised how interesting it can be.
Jack! Your intro with that hot beat sounded like a rap. Nice work on those sweet rhymes!
Thank you very much for watching, I hope more than just the beginning 😛

i got one, before watching the video :D
i’ll also get the sworks and compare. it’s probably a better brewer than Varia FLO in terms of the control/flexibility
@@ferologics please let me know about your findings. Do you like it so far?
@@mycoffeeshow111i have yet to try it 😅 i’m still mastering V60 and then the plan is to compare it to see which one i like more. will let u know
@@ferologics thank you. My guess is that they are simply different, not necessarily better or worse. Btw, I just got narrow Orea V4 to play with.
Looks like a rip off of the Orea V4?
Well, similar concept for sure but not the exact copy. I still haven’t decided which one to keep.
Better material atleast
