Overview
The Hario Technica is a 600ml vacuum syphon coffee maker with upper and lower borosilicate glass bowls, a stainless steel stand and filter, and an included alcohol burner, built in Japan for brewing roughly five cups at a time.
Syphon brewing uses vapor pressure to push hot water up into the coffee grounds, then a vacuum pulls the brewed coffee back down through a filter once the burner is removed, a slower ritual than drip brewing. This is a glass appliance that needs the same careful handling a French press does not.
- 600ml capacity, about five cups
- Borosilicate glass upper and lower bowls
- Stainless steel stand, burner cover and filter
- Imported from Japan
Who it's for
Fits someone who enjoys the process of brewing as much as the cup, and who has room on a counter or shelf to display the equipment. Not a fit for anyone wanting a quick weekday brew, since setup and cleanup run toward fifteen minutes.
Pros and cons
- Produces a smooth, low-acid cup by reviewer accounts
- Glassware feels sturdy for its material
- Instructions are printed in multiple languages
- Included alcohol burner is slow to heat water
- Brewing and cleanup take about fifteen minutes
- Requires practice to use consistently
Performance notes
The stock alcohol burner is repeatedly called underpowered; buyers who switched to a butane burner report faster heat-up and a more reliable brew. The glass construction is described as sturdy enough to compare favorably with Pyrex, though it still requires careful handling.
