- The Orea V3 is my current favorite filter brewer, in fact it has been for a long time! This is why I like it and my normal go to recipe.

Great video! Thanks Aaron. The Orea V3 is definitely my favorite brewer as well.
Thanks!!! 😊
That´s a good, solid recipe.
I´ve been brewing with OREA since its day 1 on the market, been an early bird.
I like to use 13 to 13.5g coffee (ground between 275 to 600 micron, depending on bean variety/altitude/processing method).
30 - 70g bloom up to 45 seconds, then pour up to 240g water in 30g pours.
Nice!!! So you’re doing a 1:18 then? I haven’t experimented much with larger ratios on filter like I have on espresso, I’ll have to give this a try. Thanks for sharing and watching! 😊
My v3 arrived this morning - thanks for the recommendation and recipe!
I hope you enjoy your V3!!! And thanks for watching 😊
Yes! Can't wait to try this!
😆
lol should I get this one when I go to Barcelona this Easter as it's sold in a shop less than 14 min walk from my hotel. I have so many:
Hario V60 metal,glass,plastic,copper,Tetsu Kasuya ceramic and Switch
Kalita Wave metal,glass,ceramic
Origami ceramic
Beehouse
Bonavita immersion ceramic dripper
Chemex
Able Kone for Chemex
Fellow Stagg X
Fellow Duo Steeper
Walküre Karlsbader
French Presses
Eva Solo Coffee maker
Espro travel press
Cona Syphon
Sowden Softbrew
Favorites are Walküre Karlsbader and Origami. I sometimes use the Hario V60 copper and Chemex in the countryside to brew larger batch.
Ps. Fellow Duo Steeper V2 I got very cheap at a thrift store and I would never pay anything for it and certainly not the high price it was sold at when it was in production. It is heavy and unstable in your hands,it got sharp edges that I cut myself on,the cup is no cleaner than the Able Kone and it's pain in the ass to clean it.
And I also got the Cona syphon very cheap at a thrift store but I think it's worth the high retail price.
I admit I'm addicted coffee junkie 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's a rabbit hole 😊
It has quickly become my go to over my V60
It’s funny cause I think about how many brewers I have and it feels like a waste! I hardly ever use them, like muscle memory I just grab the Orea! 😝
Great vid man! Love the angles and colour grading. Very Aesthetically pleasing. Keep it up!
Thanks!!!!!
very good point of view of the equipments.😉
Thanks! 👍
I love your videos man! Always excited to see a new upload from you. The production value and quality of content are both incredible.
It'd be cool to see something about a coffee siphon from you one day. I use one daily and professional content on siphons is lacking.
Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!!! I don’t have any experience playing with a siphon brewer but I’d love to learn about it. Maybe I’ll get my hands on one and make some videos!
One bean always gets away ! Great video man 🙌🏼 this is Chad from chadzbrewbar btw 😁
Haha! There’s always one! Thanks man
Very timely as I just ordered an Orea.
Nice! You won’t be disappointed, it’s a fantastic brewer 😊
@@coffeenerdaaron I was kinda struggling with it the first couple of days, but I think I’ve got it figured out now. I went back and watched your video again and it was the point you made about how the Orea enables you to grind much finer that made it all click into place for me. I was grinding about medium-ish and using 210° water. Now I go much finer and brew at 200°, which gives me way more enjoyable results. I’m finding it similar to using my Hario Switch where grind size seems to have the greatest impact on balancing body and clarity, and brew temp balances bitterness and acidity. Hope that makes sense.
Great video as always!
To be completely honest I don’t think this recipe would work without a melodrip. You would have too much agitation and cause clogging. Perhaps if you had a *super* low fines coffee you could get good results, it generally I think less pours would be good without a melodrip (I use two pours with the Ode 2 and Orea v3).
Yes you would need to pour very gently if not using a Melodrip which is why I recommend it. Maybe I should have made that more clear!
I just did a brew without the Melodrip and without changing grind size it did run a bit slower as to be expected. If not using a Melodrip I would loosen up the grind to get your desired flow rate for the coffee and taste you like. Experimentation is always the key! 😝
Well done and informative video. Thank you.
Thanks!
1:45 you forget that you have to have a very good grinder when grinding finer and this actually make it less consistent. With coarser brews you are the most consistent unless you have money to spend on expensive grinders
Very true! Thanks for the feedback 😊
Thanks for the info and the recipe
Nice!
I love the simple pouring structure.
Im currently doing some testing with Orea v3 vs StaggX, brew times, temp stability.
Nice! Yeah the simplicity is why I do this recipe. There are better ways to maximize but this gets a darn good cup with minimal effort and thinking 😜
What results have you seen
I found it interesting that you’re using a melodrip which decreases agitation, and, at the same time, a five-pour method which, vice versa, increases agitation. What if you just cancel those out :) and use a two-pour method like 50g bloom, 100g at 0:45 and another 100g at like 1:30? Would that give similar results, what do you think?
Anyway, great video. I began worrying about my growing brewer range but now I’m not worried anymore having seen your collection 🙃
@@sinefabula that’s a great point! And you’re probably right. My pouring structure is always evolving and I honestly don’t use the mellow drip much at all anymore. And to be completely honest I haven’t used the Orea much lately either, I’ve gone back to pretty much only using the V60 and Pulsar. As my taste has evolved over the years I have found for most coffees the Orea, or any flat bottom doesn’t always give me the vibrancy and clarity I want. The V60 with a courser grind has been really hitting for me lately. I also haven’t been drinking as many crazy funky or heavily processed coffees, which I think the flat bottom and mellow drip helped to tame a little. I’ve done back to mostly washed and cleaner naturals so for the V60 has been really nice. 😊
@@coffeenerdaaron interesting what you’re saying about flat bottoms. I’ve just received my Varia Flo which is quite similar to Orea in geometry but made of double-walled steel. I’ve not made many coffees with it yet but so far I’m noticing it’s always emphasising chocolatey notes in different beans which results in somewhat muted cups. I’ll try to adjust my technique but I’ve never noticed V60 do anything like that.
Just ordered one. My only pour over experience has been with a Chemex. The Orea should be interesting.
I think you’ll really like it! It’ll be a little bit of a learning curve compared to the Chemex but once you get comfortable with it it’s a game changer! Thanks for watching 😊
Very helpful ! This is the first I have heard about a Melodrip..any suggestions on where to buy ? Also, I found your take on grinders very refreshing. Nice to know top of the line is not a necessity !
Thank you for the kind comment!! I would recommend checking out @melodripco on instagram or just google search MeloDrip. I think it’s probably easiest to buy directly from him but sometimes decent specialty coffee shops carry them, just depends on where you are and what’s near you, but directly from him online is probably your best bet.
honey honey wakeup Aaron dropped a new vid!
😝
May I ask what cups you're using here? I'm currently searching for something new and looked into options that go in a similar direction but yours seem bigger which I'd prefer.
Great video! Glad you're on team flat bed :)
Thanks man!!! You’re new small brewer looks fantastic!
@@coffeenerdaaron we would love to get you one ASAP. Also, I'll be in AZ this summer. It would be great to grab a coffee.
@@mjbutterworth absolutely yes to both!!! 😊
Love it
Please review the Orea V4.
I have a Gabi Master B & I don't know if it can perform the pouring better than the Melodrip. I need to hold it to have the same result & not put it on the brewer. I think Melodrip has a bigger width than Gabi.
I also have a Gabi, I prefer the Melodrip hands down!
Heck yeah! Talk yo shit on the that grinder rant cuz! Speak the truth!
Nice!
What is the name/brand of the bean measuring cup at 7:30?
I honestly don’t know! My wife got it for me for Christmas a couple years ago but I actually just dropped it and broke it the other day 😞
I think it’s just a tea/coffee doser from Amazon.
@@coffeenerdaaron I saw James Hoffman with something like it and I have been looking for it since for RDT.
@@x2100 you can get the one he has on his site I think, or search tea coffee doser on Amazon.
Are you using the large or small Orea V3? Can't decide which one to go with.
I have the large, it uses Kalita 185 size filters.
@@coffeenerdaaron so I ended up purchasing the large Orea. I used it this morning for the first time. Holy draw down times it's fast!
Oh yeah buddy!!! It’s a very fast brewer. That’s why you can grind finer and get higher extractions 😝
Do you need to use the orea carafe? Could you use a hario v2 carafe?
You can use whatever carafe you’d like as long as it fits the brewer. The carafe I’m using in this video is from Fellow Products 😊
I’m not doing absolutely awesome as I’m yet to have my morning coffee😤
