The Tricolate brewer is the most exciting new brew method to come onto the home brewing scene in recent memory. It incorporates a showerhead for even water distribution over a wide, cylindrical chamber for a thin, flat bed of coffee resulting in higher extraction yields without the typical bitterness associated with it. The wide, flat coffee chamber allows all the coffee grounds to come into contact with water before passing into your cup, virtually eliminating bypass and resultant astringency.
Our bottom line: this is a brewer that lets you get the most out of your coffee in a simple, repeatable method.
