Breville Has Created a Live-In Barista for Your Counter – The New Spiral Coffee Maker Is Made for Perfect Pour-Over
It's authentic pour-over without the guesswork
Making pour-over coffee is one of the most mindful brewing methods, forcing you to slow down and bloom grounds to highlight the flavor notes.
However, not all of us have the time to dedicate to perfecting the craft or spend waiting for a morning coffee. That is where the new Breville Spiral Luxe Auto Pour-Over Coffee Maker comes in.
This non-toxic coffee maker is designed to automate pour-over coffee with one-touch brewing and an articulating spout made to replicate a professional barista's pouring technique. It's the perfect guess-free solution to the perfect pour-over.
Making pour-over coffee at home can be incredibly rewarding when you have the time, patience, and know how to do it correctly. However, unless you are a coffee aficionado, it can be a little tedious.
Fortunately, the Breville Spiral Luxe Auto Pour-Over Coffee Maker (available at Williams Sonoma) automates the process from start to finish. With a built-in coffee grinder, you just add a filter, select your preferred strength and size, and the one-touch system does the rest. The articulated spout mimics a barista using a gooseneck kettle to saturate the grounds, bloom, and brew, to draw out the coffee's clean flavors perfectly, time and time again.
What I particularly love is the ability to customize the brew completely when making coffee at home. The settings control allows you to fine-tune brew ratio, temperature, pours, and pauses, and save the settings in your profile to replicate the results whenever you need.
Most importantly for me, the conical dripper is made with BPA/S-free Tritan plastic, meaning it is perfectly sturdy with less risk than normal plastics, ensuring a cleaner cup. You can brew straight into small and large mugs or the included 20 oz glass carafe to serve yourself or your guests with ease.

It's a simple way to perfect pour-over and uncomplicate coffee, and I can't wait to give it a go myself.
