Flower ribs x Trapezoid dripper:
a fusion of the unexpected
A new dripper joins the FLOWER Series
for a mellow and rich flavor!
CAFEC FLOWER Series
Now Complete
The FLOWER DRIPPER OVAL (101/102) is the newest addition to the CAFEC FLOWER DRIPPER series!
This brand-new dripper, which completes the FLOWER Series, combines the flower shape
that embodies the CAFEC brewing theory with the trapezoid dripper.
With its flower ribs that allow the coffee grounds to expand fully and the unique
trapezoidal structure that makes it easier to hold water in it, it draws out the full flavor
of the coffee beans.
Additionally, thanks to the ribs at the bottom of the dripper and the different number
of bottom holes according to the size of the dripper, thereby reducing over-extraction at
the bottom.
The use of Tritan, a material gentle on both people and the environment, further
enhances safety.
Enjoy your coffee with a mellow and rich flavor brewed just the way you like.
Development Story
A FLOWER DRIPPER in trapezoid shape?
CAFEC has been developing the dripper series centered around the combination of the flower rib and
cone shape, as the ideal form that embodies the CAFEC brewing theory. However, we were also aware of
the high demand for the trapezoid drippers, which are traditional but have enduring popularity both
in Japan and overseas. Flower rib × trapezoidal shape?We were daring into the unknown combination,
but with a desire to offer coffee lovers a new experience and pride in our own brand, which has
developed many innovative drippers beyond the conventional framework,
we decided
to develop the
'FLOWER DRIPPER OVAL'.
During the development process, we cautiously adjusted the height of the ribs at the bottom of the
dripper in minuscule units, imperceptible to the naked eye, to maximize the characteristics of the
flower ribs for smooth coffee extraction. We also pursued the optimal angle that would allow CAFEC
paper to fit while creating the deep filtering layer for the coffee grounds. After numerous
prototypes, the 'FLOWER DRIPPER OVAL' was finally completed.
With the addition of
the 'FLOWER DRIPPER OVAL,' the FLOWER Series concludes.
Go beyond the familiar
and enjoy your
pour-over coffee with the FLOWER Series, which fit in with all brewing methods.
The taste of coffee brewed with FLOWER DRIPPER OVAL
The “FLOWER DRIPPER OVAL” gives you the ability to refine your brewing process, ensuring a coffee with a smooth mouthfeel and rich flavor.
What’s the advantage of flower shape?
The key feature of the FLOWER DRIPPER is its flower-shaped ribs. These ribs, formed by gouging the dripper, ensure an air layer between the dripper and the paper filter, allowing the fresh coffee grounds to expand freely. Additionally, the linear ribs extending from the flower ribs to the bottom of the dripper act as channels to the bottom hole, facilitating the smooth extraction of coffee.
