Sure can't get a pourover in a north American Starbucks...


Look at a supplier like espressoparts. There's probably a European equivalent. You could easily make one as well. I tend to do things by weight, so I can't say I've purchased one.

+1. A lot of specialty coffee or espresso vendors in the US carry brew stands. Etsy is another alternative:

I'd look for German or EU equivalents.

Some solutions should be set up to work with a scale, which is ideal for manual pourover brewing.

For example, Hario has a stand that is designed to fit its pour over scale:

(I just brew direct on a scale.)

I like this integrated brew-stand & scale, from Bonavita:

The nicest that I have seen are custom made by Chris Chekan in Toronto. I own one of his pour over kettles and some day plan to have him make a stand for me too. Check them out...

Those Monarch pour over accessories are really nice, but his website doesn't work.

He's due to get his site up and running soon. Currently, anyone interested needs to contact him via email...

chris@monarchmethods.com

to inquire about ordering one of his items. Hope this helps and take care!

Would be nice if anyone, would have said, no problem it's for sale in my country.
Thinkin about building my own before, maybe that's what I'll do. but still the
Hario's made me think about integrating a scale. The Monarch pour over accessories are awesome.
Anyway appreciate all your valuable input.

Seriously doubt anyone has seen one other than you. It's probably made locally by some small operation. You should have inquired at Starbucks because the manager would know how to track it down better than us.

There are a LOT of pour over stations that are custom made out there. Etsy has a few, Monarch makes them, etc. The one in the photo doesn't look very good to me because it takes up a lot of space, and who wants to have a giant pour over station when you can hide the stuff away. In addition, I just pour right into a Hario pitcher so I don't need a station at all. If your scale can handle the weight, that's a good space saving option.

Anyways, best of luck. Hope you find what you are looking for.
