Simply place it, and even with an ordinary kettle, you can achieve stable flow control, allowing you to easily brew a balanced cup of coffee.

Designed for pour-over coffee enthusiasts, this Hario water distributor (model: PDA-02-T) is an ideal tool for enhancing daily brewing consistency. Whether you are a beginner to pour-over coffee or a coffee lover looking to simplify your pour-over routine on busy mornings, this water distributor can help you effortlessly. Just place it on your V60 02 dripper, and even without a professional gooseneck kettle, you can use a regular household electric kettle to pour water directly. Its structure will convert the water flow into evenly dripping droplets, significantly reducing the impact of shaky hands or uneven pouring on coffee flavor.

• Dual-ring flow control design: Features two different diameter pouring holes, corresponding to the blooming and main extraction phases, allowing water to naturally and slowly drip.
• No professional gooseneck kettle required: Even when pouring water with a wide-mouthed ordinary electric kettle, it maintains a stable dripping speed, preventing excessive water flow from scouring the coffee bed.
• Made in Japan quality: Made of high heat-resistant, safe, and non-toxic PCT resin material, lightweight, durable, and highly transparent.
• Wide compatibility: Perfectly fits Hario 02 size V60 drippers and can be used directly with standard paper filters.
• Easy to clean: Simple structure with no complex dead ends; simply rinse with water after use for cleaning.

This Drip-Assist water distributor, developed by Hario in collaboration with professional baristas, focuses on solving the challenge of water flow control during pour-over. Its central and outer areas feature different diameters and numbers of drip holes. When you pour hot water from above, the distributor buffers the strong water pressure, converting it into gentle and evenly distributed drips. The central area is suitable for the initial blooming step, helping the coffee grounds fully absorb water; the outer area assists in the subsequent pouring and extraction. The entire accessory weighs only about 100 grams and has a compact size, making it space-saving whether placed in an office, home kitchen, or used for outdoor camping.

Suitable Usage Scenarios:

• Daily scenarios where you want to brew coffee directly with a household electric kettle without a professional pour-over gooseneck kettle.
• Beginners new to pour-over coffee who want to lower the entry barrier for pouring techniques and improve extraction success rates.
• Office workers who brew coffee at the office, seeking fast, convenient, and consistently high-quality results.
• Light-travel enthusiasts who want to reduce carrying heavy coffee equipment while camping or traveling outdoors.

Problems Solved by the Product:

• Unstable water flow: Solves the problem of large or inconsistent water flow from wide-mouthed kettles damaging the coffee bed.
• Uneven extraction: Prevents over-extraction or under-extraction of coffee grounds due to shaky hands or improper pouring range.
• Equipment barrier: Eliminates the need to purchase expensive or space-consuming professional gooseneck kettles to get started with pour-over.
• Complex operation: Simplifies pouring technique requirements; just master basic water temperature and time to consistently achieve good flavor.
