Kalita Wave 185 Drippers

The Wave Series from Kalita is the premier coffee dripper available on the market. The flat-bottom coffee bed geometry, patented 'Wave' filter, and three-hole design work together to provide an even extraction that makes brewing a perfect cup accessible and easy.

Available in three styles: stainless steel, glass, and ceramic.

Brew directly into a cup, or mount it on a brew stand (like a TruBru). We recommend this size (#185) for brewing about 26-45 grams of coffee, yielding between 16 and 26 ounces of brewed coffee.

35 customers mention22 positive13 negative

Customers are mixed about the size of the coffee filter. Some mention it's a good size and takes up very little space, while others say that the base is unnecessarily small and the filters do not fit quite as well.

"...You can use a standard small filter but the bottom is not as narrow so you have to make a little fold for it to fit nicely...." Read more

"...It’s not taking up much space in my cupboards or my counter, and, paired with the paper filters, it’s incredibly easy to use...." Read more

"...The smaller size was tedious for me. This works best for my choice of mug size. This is what I've looked for, for years. Wonderful." Read more

22 customers mention7 positive15 negative

Customers are mixed about the flow rate of the coffee filter. Some mention that the flow is just as good as the glass version, making really good, smooth coffee. However, others say that the rate is so slow that it takes 20 minutes to make 1 cup of coffee.

"It takes too long to pour, especially when I want a bigger cup of coffee...." Read more

"...I’ve used, but the reward is a great tasting cup of coffee that is smooth and clean...." Read more

"...has three small holes; as such, I feel like the extraction time is a little too short..." Read more

"...I will say that it takes a couple more minutes to brew than say the AeroPress, but worth it in my opinion. You seem to get a cleaner tasting cup...." Read more

Usually love these, this time sent trash.
4 Stars
Usually love these, this time sent trash.
I have ordered the glass ones before and they work great but they are easy to break. This time I ordered the metal and got sent literal garbage. The Amazon bag was sealed but the box had the above in it. Really disappointing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Elegant, simple, flavorful coffee is at hand.
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2021
For easily the past decade, I’ve been a stickler for my daily french-pressed coffee. Some called me a coffee ‘snob’. I’ve worked in the past as a coffee-slinging barista for nearly three years, so I do have some knowledge on the subject of brewing coffee. That being said, I only recently decided to switch to the pour-over method, mostly due to changing tastes and developing aversion to the often oily, gritty mouthfeel of the French-press method.

There’s a few big names in the pour-over industry, such as Chemex and Hario. I didn’t want to purchase a system that required it’s own carafe, and I wasn’t particularly excited about anything glass with a toddler running around. I wanted something I could use my existing double-insulated stainless steel carafe with- and the Kalita Wave 185 fit that bill for me.

It’s small and very easy to clean (quick rinse after use, occasional hand-washing). It’s not taking up much space in my cupboards or my counter, and, paired with the paper filters, it’s incredibly easy to use. It can be tricky getting your grind dialed in perfectly, but that’s all part of the process. When you’ve got your grind and proportions figured out, using this daily becomes kind of a daily meditation. It’s more involved than any other coffee brewing method I’ve used, but the reward is a great tasting cup of coffee that is smooth and clean. It’s the most enjoyable home coffee experience I’ve had for quite some time.

The Kalita 185 size is enough to fit 45g of coffee grounds, through which I pour 750ml of water, making right around 25 ounces, which is just the right amount for the two mugs I use. It’s simple, smooth, clean coffee every time.
