The Kalita MINO ceramic dripper combines Japanese tradition with modern coffee brewing excellence. Handcrafted in Japan using the centuries-old Mino ware technique, each dripper undergoes a meticulous process, from chrysanthemum kneading to the final glost firing. This technique, originating in Gifu Prefecture, offers a rustic, natural satin finish and earthy tones, bringing warmth and charm to any space.
The MINO’s flat-bottom, 3-hole design paired with Kalita 185 Wave filters ensures an even extraction for smooth, balanced coffee free of bitterness. Its 20-wave filter and dripper minimize contact between water and the filter, allowing for an even flow and rich, full flavor.
Perfect for home or café brewing, the Kalita MINO reflects the craftsmanship of Oribe, Setoguro, and Shino wares. Whether you're serving 2 to 4 cups, the MINO dripper delivers not just exceptional coffee but also a touch of artisanal beauty to your brewing ritual.

I bought this version after experiencing clogging with other Kalitas. This sand version has, in my experience, been the worst kalita dripper. It clogs dramatically regardless of grind size or pouring style. The standard kalita papers always completely block at least 2 of the three holes, often all 3. Was very excited for this dripper, but ultimately very disappointed.

art meets craft - very beautiful. conveniently it also makes a great cup.
My grandfather always used the pour over method when making coffee. I’ve been trying to cut out plastic from my coffee routine and this seemed like a great way. So, I donated my Braun coffeemaker and here I am. The dripper is so well made and I bought the carafe as well. I think as long as they’re taken care of, they should last a lifetime.
Looks and feels lovely and makes a wonderful cup of coffee! Seems less finicky to get a great cup than a V60 and flavors are generally sweeter and cups have less acidity. I am loving this 185!
This is absolutely now my favorite pour over dripper from Kalita. The material and finish is superb and I noticed a difference right away in my coffee brew.
This pour over ceramic dripper is so beautiful, I wish I could have an entire dinnerware collection to match. Will you please make oversized mugs in that material? I would buy a huge set. Obsessed.
