Is that the great Mills Lane judging you two?

There won't be any need for an unbiased judge; the results will be so clear and devastating, that even goatboy will wave the white flag.

And my patent for the clip just went through, a marketing plan is underway, and Kickstarter has agreed to raise the venture capital.  This will launch me into early retirement, fo' sho'.

LOVE the Ikea light fo the ring, really adds a touch of home

I think we have this all wrong why do you need to pour one drop at a time? I've got a new contender for the king of pour over kettles....

And look, it even has a shower head, just like the fancy new BraZen! Guess it was way ahead of its time?

From that photo I think he favors a pulse pour, I would have bet on the higher temp no-paws technique.

There is a 1.2 liter, stainless steel kettle on ebay.  $36.00 shipped from Korea.  It has a relatively decent tip (not a Takahiro) but at the price, it has value.  http://goo.gl/HwEGN (warning:  eBay link).  Not sure about the balance.

It looks similar to the Fino 1 liter kettle that Able is selling from Japan for $60 (also available in pink).

Cost is a factor in value.  I surely loved the Tak but when I compared the pours with the Paico, first thought that comes to mind was, "Is the Tak an $85-better-pour?"

Amen !!!!
Which is why I'm sticking with the Aroma/Buono combination.
They are here.  They are paid for.
No need to mortgage the house for an upgrade.
