As a coffee consultant, I've used filters made from a variety of materials, including paper, metal, and nylon, from around the world, but I think QuickDrip is an excellent product. I compared three types of filters with various coffees: a regular paper filter, a high-flow filter often used in specialty coffee, and QuickDrip. Overall, I was impressed by QuickDrip's ability to bring out the texture and sweetness of the coffee.

In particular, I feel that the ability to bring out the sweetness even in lightly roasted, acidic coffee is a major sensory feature. Another major advantage of QuickDrip is that it allows water to drain very well, so it doesn't clog even when the beans are finely ground. It's a high-performance filter that can extract ingredients very efficiently while preventing over-extraction, resulting in a very high yield.

I think this innovation is the biggest since the introduction of the Precision Basket, a basket filter for espresso machines.

I extracted a sample and my conclusion was that it extracted quickly and gave a sense of concentration.

In the sample extraction we carried out, the grind size was a little too coarse and did not achieve the proper concentration, but the fact that it was quick yet produced a sense of concentration meant that the light roast coffee used this time had a wide range of extraction possibilities.

I use the Shivalist in competitions because I like the fast extraction speed and the coffee oils that are reflected in the liquid, making it smoother to the palate, but the QuickDrip also dissolves the coffee oils, which may have a positive effect on the body and pleasant mouthfeel. In terms of taste, I would like to test it with a finer particle size setting.

I also really like the high "yield" of the filter. There are various grades of coffee, but I feel like this filter is a good match for so-called top specialty class beans, so I'd like to try it with Geisha and auction lot coffees.
