Step 5


Once the water reaches boiling, it is siphoned through the glass tube, past the filter and into the top infusion chamber. Agitate the coffee with a back and forth motion to fully saturate the grounds.

Step 7


Once the carafe chamber starts to cool, the coffee is siphoned back down into it

Gently rock the top infusion chamber back and forth until it can easily be removed (placing it in its convertible lid/stand) and serve the coffee directly from the lower carafe chamber as a decanter.

Relax and enjoy your siphon coffee.
