Welcome to the Gourmia Experience

• The tantalizing aroma of freshly coffee grounds is just moments away! Join us on the journey toward the cup you’ve been craving. The secret to pour over perfection is precision, and the Gourmia Pour Over Pourista is designed for precision throughout every stage of the coffee brewing process.
• Every detail – from a finely calibrated heating system that maintains the ideal water temperature throughout the brewing and pouring process, the built-in scale that determines the ideal water: grinds ratio, the perfect bloom process, and real barista pour over action – has been designed to provide the best, most authentic pour over experience.
• The Gourmia Pour Over Pourista not only automates the entire process, it also offers a manual mode that provides the flexibility to customize the most important settings impacting coffee flavor; heat and the grinds-to-water ratio. With both an automatic and manual mode, you’re assured a perfect pour over coffee.
• Witnessing the Pourista in action is a work of art. Once the grinds are placed in filter and the water reaches the ideal temperature, the bloom pour begins. Our unique system pours the ideal amount of water in a planetary pour pattern, ensuring that every grind absorbs just the right amount of water which prepares the grinds to release their pure flavor. After this short pour, the Pourista pauses for the grinds to release the excess carbon dioxide that occur naturally and prevent the grounds from releasing their flavor. This process is called the bloom.
• After the short pause, the Pourista begins the brew pour. Again using the planetary pour pattern to ensure even distribution of water across the grinds, the Pourista pours the ideal amount of water to insure the grinds release their full flavor and not suffer from over- or under-saturation.
• The precision is built into the Gourmia Pour Over Pourista, but all you’ll notice is a delicious cup of pour over coffee at the touch of a button.
• The pages of this manual offer a comprehensive set of instructions to guide you through the functions and features of the Gourmia Pour Over Pourista. You will find information regarding the assembly, operation, cleaning and maintenance of your appliance. Please read all instructions thoroughly before the first use to ensure your safety.

Thank you, and welcome to the Gourmia Family!

WEIGHING THE GROUNDS

A TRUE BARISTA spends years learning to pour the perfect pour-over – adjusting elements such as the grinds-to-water ratio, water temperature and pour time based on a variety of factors including where the coffee was grown, where it was roasted and your coffee flavor preference. The Pourista was designed to give you maximum control, if you desire, or a fully automated pour-over process to give you the cup of coffee of your dreams. In the auto mode, once you scoop the desired amount of grinds into the filter, the Pourista will calculate the ideal amount of water to pour and the ideal temperature and pour speed. In the manual mode, once you scoop the desired amount of grinds into the filter, you can set your preferred grinds-to-water ratio and water temperature for a truly delicious custom brew.
