Note about water hardness
Using hard water will ruin your espresso machine. Soft water no higher than 50ppm is required to keep your espresso machine running for the long term. Using hard water will void the warranty.
Experience a unique brewing method with the Yama Glass 3 Cup Tabletop Siphon Coffee Maker (Alcohol Burner). Designed with a scientific laboratory in mind, this vacuum-style brewer serves as both a fascinating conversation piece and a high-quality coffee maker. Also referred to as a Vacpot Brewer, it relies on an alcohol burner/warmer to heat the water and siphon it through, resulting in a bold and velvety cup of coffee. With its vintage styling and appeal, this makes for an ideal gift for coffee aficionados.
The 3 cup size specification refers to the Yama cup size, which measures about 3-4 ounces per cup. The tabletop siphon brewer is also available in the 5 cup size for sharing or for when you just can't stop at 1 delicious cup.
PRO TIP: Although Isopropyl (Rubbing) Alcohol, which is available at most drug stores can be used in the alcohol burner, Denatured Alcohol can be purchased from most hardware stores and will burn hotter and help heat the water more quickly.
Discover the artistry of Yama Glass USA, where a Taiwanese factory excels in crafting exquisite hand-blow glass that's both tempered and heat resistant. The mastery of this specialty glass brings to life stunning cold brew towers, mesmerizing siphon coffee makers, and captivating beautiful teapots.
