Orea Big Boy Brewer

The new kid on the block

Introducing the Big Boy Brewer from OREA that promises a lot of what people love in Orea's smaller 1-4 cup brewers to much bigger volumes of coffee. 

For two or more

The Big Boy is made for big brews, with an optimal dose range of 40g-60g of coffee for 600ml to 1 litre. You can go as low as 32g or as high as 80g with the right recipe, but we recommend to keep pours big (200ml+ per pour) for optimal performance. So if you brew lower quantities, grind finer and use bigger pours. Every Big Boy brewer comes with guides in the box for recipes for two, three, or more people. 

Unclogable design 

The Big Boy has a unique bottom design that uses a series of tall teeth/ridges to hold the paper up perfectly straight and always allow for airflow under the bed. The brewer itself will not clog, stop dripping due to suction etc but if you grind too fine or if your grinder is not very good in general, the paper filter itself may clog. Some coffees will naturally drain slower than others as they provide different resistance to water, based on processing method, roast style, etc. However the device itself will not get in the way, providing a huge 8cm opening at the bottom through the use of the ridges. In addition, there is a big exit hole in the middle that will always keep the coffee flowing. 

Brew for 2 or more in 3-4 minutes

With the right recipes and for most coffees, you can brew 600ml to 1 litre in about 3-4 minutes. You can push this if you use the Negotiator system along with a fast paper like the Sibarist FAST. You can also push it by manipulating grind size and pouring volume, it really depends what you are looking for. But like all of the Orea range, you can also keep it simple, use the Orea wave filters or the Kalita wave filters.

Batch sizes without the batchy taste

With the Orea Big Boy Brewer you can brew bigger batches with increased clarity and sweetness. Batch brewed coffee is known for tasting batchy. When designing the Big Boy Brewer Orea wanted to scale up the taste profile of the Orea V3 Brewer and we think they managed to get as close as one can get. Orea want the option to brew for more people, quicker but without the stewed batchy taste. 

Compatible with our flat papers and the Negotiator 

For those that enjoy more paper options, the Big Boy is compatible with all of our Large/185 flat papers when using the Big Boy Negotiator tool. This is a simple way to insert a FAST Sibarist paper, the new Type C - Clarity paper, or our classic Type G flat paper. Experiment with faster brew times, finer grinds and different cup profiles while creating more space in the brewer with a super-precise tight fit of the paper to the brewer walls. Due to the design of the brewer, you will always have fast flowing brews even when using this method.
