5 Reasons We Love a Pour Over – and Think You Should Too

Who doesn't love a rich, expertly brewed cup of coffee from a Twin Valley Coffee café? Make it our signature cold brew, and you literally have perfection! However, that one-of-a-kind coffee shop experience isn't always feasible. When you just want to have a chill day at home or an early morning spent with the rising sun, you want excellent coffee that can be brewed right from the comfort of your home. 

We get it and have just the thing that can help.

Pour Over Your Sorrows

Imagine a relaxing day where lo-if is playing in the background, and there's nothing on your to-do list except for reading that book you've been hearing so much about. The only thing that could elevate this moment is a delicious cup of coffee, right? Excited, you glance at your kitchen, instantly remembering all of the many brewing attempts you've made there, and with sadness, settle on grabbing some water instead.

Friend, we've all been there, and it's frustrating. We all deserve great coffee at home, and the right tool is all it takes to make that a reality. We at TVC are fans of a little thing known as the ceramic pour-over. It's simple yet impactful. To the average coffee maker, it might require a bit of adjustment, especially for those used to automatic machines, but with practice, it can become one of your best kitchen investments. 

Here are five reasons we love the pour-over method:

1. Intentional Brewing: While it takes a little longer than a drip brewer, the pour-over method is for those who enjoy unhurried simplicity. The pour-over lets you admire the small drops of caffeinated delight and take in the aroma of your favorite grounds. Every moment is an opportunity to appreciate a few seconds of calm in your day. 

   P.S. Make your brewing even more special with some tunes for the perfect at-home cafe vibe. Our marketing manager loves playing "La Vie en Rose" while making her pour-over. 

2. Consistent Results: With anything, it takes a little time to find your groove. The process isn’t complicated, but consistency is required. However, once you get it, you will have a full-bodied delight almost every time. Something to remember: With a specific ratio of 20 grams of coffee to 400 grams of water, you'll consistently enjoy the rich flavors you love.

3. New Adventure: Can it seem like a new coffee experiment? Absolutely! This method will be a new challenge but a smooth one. It's all about finding what works for you and refining that to suit your needs. In no time, you'll see the dividends of delectable coffee. That in itself is reward enough.
4. Aesthetic Delight: Honest opinion? The pour-over is a thing of beauty and complements any space it's in. Functionality meets style, and we just love when that happens!
5. Incredible Coffee: The pour-over makes a remarkable cup. It delivers both richness and complexity that elevates the home brewing experience, making it an easy choice for all of us coffee lovers.
