Coffee syphons have been used for hundreds of years.  We have taken a classic and historied device and elevated it with a modern design and quality materials. The Technica Syphon is widely recognized for our signature heatproof glass, clean lines and iconic look. How does it work?This syphon is supported by a metal and resin stand that holds the brewer over an open flame or halogen burner.  The water in the lower bowl heats up and pressure builds causing the water to rise up to the top chamber.  Coffee is brewed in the top bowl and when desired extraction is achieved, the heat source is removed and the coffee filters back into the bottom bowl, leaving a clean balanced cup.Product Number: TCA-5  Size: W160×D110×H360mm Capacity: 600ml Materials:Upper Bowl, Lower Bowl: Heatproof Glass (Borosilicate Glass)Packing: Silicone RubberFastener: BrassStand: Stainless Steel, Iron, Zinc Alloy, Phenol ResinBurner Cover, Filter: Stainless SteelWindbreak: AluminumAlcohol Lamp Holder, Cover and Upper Bowl Stand, Measuring Spoon: Polypropylene *Alcohol not included   Made in Japan   Looking for the product manual?
