Vacuum or Siphon

Vacuum coffee makers, also known as siphon or syphon coffee makers, were invented in the 1830s, and brew coffee by changing the vapour pressure in the lower vessel thus forcing water up into the upper vessel containing coffee grounds. While most coffee varieties can be used with this process, we particularly recommend Kenya Blue Mountain Coffee, Kenya Peaberry Coffee, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Coffee, Blue Mountain Jamaica Coffee and Kenya AA Coffee. We recommend our percolator grind for vacuum/siphon use.
