The Melitta<\/a> name is synonymous with fine pour-over coffee, and has been for over 100 years.<\/p>\n

\"Melitta_Pour-Over\"<\/p>\n

Melitta Bentz, the brand\u2019s innovative founder, revolutionized the world of coffee in 1908 when she took a brass pot from her kitchen, punched holes in it and used a piece of paper from her son\u2019s notebook to create the very first Pour-Over\u2122\u2014the precursor to the modern day Pour-Over\u2122.<\/p>\n

Now, with over a century of experience behind them, Melitta has introduced their new Signature Pour-Over line for coffee connoisseurs everywhere. While the brewing process is still three-step simple, the new brewers offer great new advantages.<\/p>\n

\"Melitta_3-step_process\"<\/p>\n

Continue using the #4 coffee filters that have become the go-to size for years.<\/p>\n

The new brewers are available in both porcelain and plastic models.\u00a0 I didn\u2019t have the opportunity to try the porcelain models, but I\u2019ve been using the plastic one<\/a> for a few weeks now, and I just love it.<\/p>\n

\"64030_Signature_Series_Pour-Over_Clear_i\"<\/p>\n

It\u2019s made of shatter-resistant copolyester and is BPA-free.\u00a0 One of the best features is that you can place it in the top rack of your dishwasher when you\u2019re done and you don\u2019t have to worry about it clouding up like so many other plastic products.<\/p>\n

A ring under the brewer fits most standard size cups, preventing it from shifting when pouring. Two openings (one on either side) enable you to see the coffee level in the cup and prevents from overpouring.<\/p>\n

Raised ridges on all sides keep the filters from adhering to the walls of the brewer, enabling the coffee to flow through all the grounds and into your cup.<\/p>\n

The new plastic Signature Series Pour-Over Coffeemakers come in 1 cup size \u2013 either clear<\/a> or translucent red<\/a> in color and are priced at $17.99.<\/p>\n

\"170808-6896\"<\/p>\n

While you are at their site \u2013 be sure to consider their selection of coffees as well.\u00a0 They not only carry the ground coffee you\u2019ll need for your pour-over brewer, they also sell it in pods and K-cups, as well as whole bean. We\u2019ve tried both the Classic Blend<\/a> and the Hazelnut Cr\u00e8me<\/a>, enjoying both immensely.<\/p>\n

You can check out their complete line of pour-over models here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
