Hario SCA-5 Sommelier Siphon, hand-blown

Sommelier Syphon

Glassware at its best

The syphon, or vacuum brewer, is one of those coffee brewing methods that allows coffee geeks to be coffee geeks and makes coffee preparation seem like a scientific experiment. The invention of the vacuum brewer can be traced back to the 19th century and is therefore one of the oldest methods of brewing coffee. Its form hasn't changed much until now.

The syphon is also the most technically complex glassware HARIO produces in its factory, with dedicated machines specifically designed to achieve these shapes.

Here is the Sommelier Syphon, which has a modified appearance reminiscent of a wine decanter. These are also hand-blown to achieve their almost extreme shape. The price reflects this.

The shape is intended to elevate the aromatic experience of coffee, as much as it will capture the attention of fine dining establishments.

One of the primary differences with this syphon, apart from the shape of the globes, is that the brewer is separate from the stand. The coffee carafe thus stands elegantly on its own, and in our opinion, this enhances the serving and presentation experience. The shape of the bottom globe also ensures that any sediments are left behind in the globe. The precision of pouring cannot be compared to pouring from one of HARIO's serving pitchers. This can probably be explained by the fact that the globe is hand-blown.

The neck is covered by a thick silicone collar that is easily removable for cleaning.

This syphon comes with two different filters, one made of cloth and one made of stainless steel with a rubber gasket. The steel filter appears to withstand long-term use.

HARIO may have drawn inspiration from fine wine, but now they have also used their expertise to elevate the potential of coffee service in ambitious restaurants.

Enjoy your meal.
