Index of methods

What are the main types of coffee brewing methods?

Every way of making coffee comes down to how water meets the grounds: it flows through them, steeps with them, is forced through them under pressure, or boils with them. This library sorts the world's 169 methods into 11 families:

Pour-over & Drip

Hot water poured over coffee in a filter, dripping through by gravity.

Immersion & Steeping

Coffee and water steep together, then the grounds are separated.

Pressure & Espresso

Water forced through finely ground coffee under pressure.

Hybrid & Air-pressure

Steep first, then press or release: the best of both worlds.

Vacuum & Siphon

Vapour pressure and vacuum move water between two chambers.

Boiled & Traditional

Ancient pot methods where coffee is heated directly with water.

Cloth, Sock & Cultural Filter

Fabric filters, from Costa Rica to Malaysia.

Metal Gravity Drip & Percolation

Reusable metal filters and percolators, from Vietnam to India.

Cold & Iced

Cold brew, slow drip and coffee brewed hot over ice.

Machines, Pods & Commercial

Capsules, bean-to-cup, centrifugal and café brewing systems.

Instant & Industrial

Freeze-dried, spray-dried, concentrates and canned coffee.
