Varia x Kurasu Kyoto FLO Dripper

A collaboration between founder Ramsey Gyde and Yozo Otsuki from Kurasu in Japan.
FLO is a study into the effects of flow dynamics in extractions. A patented design created by Varia and refined by Kurasu, FLO utilises a two part assembly with interchangeable flow screens which provided variations in flow rate, flow paths and contact time.
FLO also utilises an extremely difficult manufacturing process to insulate the two layers of Stainless Steel to produce a cool touch exterior wall allowing for a minimal design without a handle for a more comfortable, intuitive and efficient workflow.

Varia FLO Features:

• Adapt flow rate to the coffee: FLO is a study into the effects of flow dynamics in extractions. A patented design created by Varia and refined by Kurasu, FLO utilises a two-part assembly with interchangeable flow screens which provided variations in flow rate, flow paths and contact time.
• Select your filter/flow rate: Select from a range of specially designed filter plates that enhance your brewing experience and allow for ultimate control over-flow rate and bed saturation. An ability to brew using a (fast) slotted filter plate for use with paper as well as a (slow) hole pattern allows for multiple brew methods as well as brewing without the necessity of a paper filter.
• Twin wall insulated stainless steel body: FLO also utilises an extremely difficult manufacturing process to insulate the two layers of Stainless Steel to produce a cool touch exterior wall allowing for a minimal design without a handle for a more comfortable, intuitive and efficient workflow.
• Varia X Kurasu FLO screens: Chemical photo etching technology provides an extremely precise cutting of ultra-thin stainless steel and can achieve absolute tolerances and uniformity as well as achieving advanced geometries and patterns in both 3D and 2D planes.

What does FLO mean?

The acronym 'FLO' refers to 'Flexible, Liquid, Output', and describes the customisation of the liquid flowing out, this is done by the interchangeable screens that restrict different amount of coffee to pass through at different rates.
