I like that Sibarist is out there setting the high bar for coffee filters. Ive played with their filters and quite like them, but for 98% of brewing the price point just isnt justied Imo. I'd argue they are undisputed leaders in high end filters.

I feel like they are just getting pretentious though with this new Halo brewer

A glass jar "inspired by minimalism" should not have a very maximal base model price of $374(sale price!)

I love learning about and trying new brewing techniques, but this one is out of my league and while it's mean-spirited, I'm kind of booing this one and hoping it bombs. I do already love that they refer to it as the "BS" for short.

I'm surprised I can't find any videos or pre release reviews at all on this thing. Anyone here know anything? I'm morbidly curious.

Over priced coffee gear is a big No! for me.

Beats me.

Seems like you could put an inverted shot glass in a beaker for the same effect.

Only if you wear black gloves while doing it.

That's clearly a key part of the process.

But only official Sibarist black gloves will guarantee the quality of the resulting brew.
