Last Updated: 2026/01/27, How to pour over coffee beans? First, get a coffee grinder—it's essential. The market offers grinders at wildly varying prices, from budget-friendly manual grinders costing tens of dollars to premium electric models costing thousands, which can be overwhelming. Many beginners in coffee brewing find grinders expensive and end up buying a cheap one.

How to Brew Coffee Beans with Pour-Over

First, prepare a grinder. The grinder is very important, and the prices of grinders on the market vary widely, ranging from dozens of yuan for manual grinders to tens of thousands for electric ones, which can be overwhelming. Many beginners in coffee brewing might find grinders expensive and randomly buy a cheap one or a spiral blade grinder that isn't specifically designed for coffee. Price definitely determines the quality of the grinder. If it's just for daily brewing rather than shop production, FrontStreet Coffee suggests setting the budget for a manual grinder between 500-2000 yuan, or an electric grinder between 1500-5000 yuan.

Coffee grinder and brewing equipment

Next, buy a dripper. The market offers so many styles of coffee drippers that it can be dizzying. Different styles of drippers produce different brewing results. Before struggling with which dripper style to buy, start with a V60 dripper - there's no single-origin coffee bean that can't be brewed with a V60 dripper.

Choosing a Pour-Over Kettle

In addition to the dripper, there are many styles of pour-over kettles. Many beginners, when unsure which one to buy, are often drawn to the color of the kettle. Pay attention to the spout and the capacity of the kettle. FrontStreet Coffee suggests beginners choose a gooseneck narrow-spout kettle.

Choosing a Digital Scale

FrontStreet Coffee suggests purchasing a fast-display digital scale with a timer function, or directly search for "pour-over coffee digital scale" when making your purchase.

With the above equipment, you're ready to start pour-over coffee brewing. As for a serving pot, any pot will do as long as it can hold water.
