About this item

• [No Worry of Clogging] The lotus leaf is well-known for having a highly water-repellent or superhydrophobic, thus giving the name to the lotus effect. We have succeeded in reproducing the lotus effect and the micropores in ekubo can increase self-cleaning effectiveness and prevent the adhesion of coffee-oil that causes clogging.
• [Aromatic and Flavorful Coffee] ekubo utilizes the absorbent nature of ceramic to organically filter coffee through holes measuring 50 microns (approximately the diameter of a human hair). These openings are perfectly sized, being slightly larger than those of a paper filter, allowing most oils, which contribute to the coffee’s umami flavor, to pass through. As a result, ekubo improves both the flavor and scent of the coffee.
• [Far Infrared Radiation] Made out of porous ceramic that emits far infrared radiation, it helps to change the taste of coffee by removing any harsh or odd flavors, allowing you to enjoy your coffee to the fullest. ekubo can also be used to purify most liquids, including water. It removes particles, contaminants, and the smell of chlorine from water and makes water soft.
• [No Paper Coffee Filter! ] ekubo is a sustainable ceramic coffee dripper that eliminates the need for disposable paper filters. You do not need to use a paper filter to make drip coffee. This filter is washable and reusable.

• [Easy Maintenance] To clean the filter, remove the used coffee powder and wash it by dish brush with water until the water comes out clean. Clogging may occur as a result of frequent use. If your ekubo brews coffee very slowly, boil it with hot water for 5 to 10 minutes.* *Do not touch the filter until it has completely cooled.
