Reviews

Dripper version: Orea Z1 (June/July 2025)
Typical dose: 10-12.5g
Other owned drippers: V60, Aeropress, Clever Dripper, Orea V3
Flavor preference: I prize acidity, sweetness, and florals. Love light-to-ultra-light roasts from H&S, SEY, Tim Wendelboe, Coffea Circulor, Subtext, Hydrangea, September, etc.
Is it your best or last dripper? It might be the best, but also I just wanted a no-bypass brewer.
Design/WorkflowDesign overall is extremely thoughtful and mature. No obvious flaws in workflow, and a joy to use so far. It does work excellently with the intended smaller doses.
Build quality is excellent, much thicker and more "premium" than expected. Extremely clear.
Parts screw together very easily. Hard to unscrew when hot, so I prefer to dump grounds while Z1 is still assembled, then disassemble and clean.
Cleanup is easy, about the same or a touch more complex than Aeropress.
Teeth holding Melodrip can sometimes retain grinds, but not enough to impact level bed in practice. I would disregard this "design flaw" personally.
So far, easily cleans with soap and water. Time will tell re: discoloration and scratching.
Brewing
Sibarist FAST filters regularly drain shockingly fast (2-2:30 minutes for my unimodal flat burr grinder), so long drawdowns don't appear to be a limiting factor for light roast fans. Decafs are definitely slower, but at 3:15 minutes still crazy fast.
Brews are consistently characterized by a big and creamy/silky body, but with straightforward, raw, juicy and vibrant flavors and an "easy to drink" quality. The thick body can confuse someone coming from a brewer that does introduce bypass.
Difficult to dial in because brews are more forgiving, even at notably finer settings. Heavier processes can taste fantastic within a huge grind range, while washed coffees are still difficult to dial in for me currently.
I alternate between a 5-pour and 3-pour recipe. I have not decided which one I like better.
It is important to pour evenly on the Melodrip, and spending more time on the outside of the ring especially.
