Etkin Design | 2-Cup Dripper
Every detail of the Etkin 2-Cup Coffee Dripper is designed with extraction in mind. Deep ridges promote a fast flow and even extraction. The double wall allows for easy handling and great thermal stability. 100% Turkish porcelain makes for an elegant, environmentally-responsible material.
The Etkin 2-cup Dripper aims to improve upon existing pour-over drippers by elevating the filter with deep ridges. Like the Etkin 8-cup dripper, the 2-cup dripper is made from Turkish porcelain and features a double-walled construction, allowing for easy handling and better temperature stability. The smooth side walls make the Etkin 2-Cup Dripper more conducive for zero-bypass styles of brewing.
“I knew from the beginning that I wanted to make a more conventionally sized pour-over dripper,” says Michael Butterworth, Etkin cofounder and Authorized SCA Trainer. “The success of our 8-cup dripper has shown that in an age of convenience and automation, a lot of people still want to make coffee by hand.”
The Etkin 2-Cup Dripper was designed in collaboration with Istanbul design firm MODESIGN and manufactured in Kütahya, Turkey. The packaging features hand illustrations from London-based designer Cansu Merdamert.
“From ideation to prototyping and manufacturing, the Etkin 2-cup dripper was created within a 200-mile radius,” says Butterworth. “We hope to bring greater transparency to the coffee equipment supply chain. We expect traceability from our single-origin coffee— why shouldn’t our pour-over dripper be as well?”
