Pourover - Stand Recommendations

#1: Post by **chefwong** » January 13th, 2015, 12:22 pm

Adding a pourover to my setup. A brief google does not show a ~wide~ selection of stands. I figuered there would be a market of 50+ on Etsy and such.

CliveCoffee stand seems to be as good as it get's. Any others ya'll can recommend

Hello there,

Just for the sake of adding something to the conversation, you might also look at ring stands like they use in chemistry labs. I have one of these and quite like that I can adjust the height of the rings. I also briefly (until I broke it) had a separatory funnel with a needle valve to make slow-dripped iced coffee in the same setup. Just measure your pourover device's base to make sure it will be compatible of the size of the ring.

This is the first result on amazon for what I am thinking of:

Enjoy!

If you are going to weighing everything, I think they are bit useless imho. I would try not using a stand for a while before you jump into spending another 30+++ on a stand you may or may not use.

Whatever stand you get, make sure that it will accommodate a scale at the bottom.

It isn't nearly as fancy looking as some of the other recommendations, but I like Bonavita's integrated scale & stand set-up very much. The scale is responsive, and includes a timer, it has a drip tray over it to contain any spillage, and the stand functions similarly to a chemistry lab ring stand. It certainly isn't necessary --- at home I just set my dripper directly on top of a mug, balanced on top of a small American Weigh scale -- but it helps me minimize mess and fuss when brewing coffee in my office.
