demonstrating the origin of the detachable concept of palatti drippers

Since Melitta Bentz's first dripper patent in 1908, the variety of drippers has expanded immensely. Yet, the vast majority only make subtle adjustments in patterns, often accompanied by highly subjective flavor descriptions, leaving enthusiasts bewildered by the choices.

Palatti reimagines this timeless and elegant coffee making tool by separating the core functions of the dripper into two modular parts: the wall and the base. This innovative concept, known as Universal Drippers, allows you to experience, feel, and explore the world of coffee in endless ways. Even with the same coffee, there are limitless possibilities that invite curiosity and creativity with every brew.

Watch Palatti Drippers Come to Life

Crafting a Palatti dripper demands 20 pairs of skilled hands from Dehua artisans, working in precise sequence for 45 days. Any misstep, no matter how minor, means all 80 steps must be redone. No room for error. In the kiln's 2372°F(1300°C) searing heat, the clay shrinks by 20%, teetering on the edge of unexpected warping and cracking. The glaze liquefies, blooming into its true colors. Palatti's synchronous shrinkage technique turns unruly clay into a harmonious dance, making the impossible possible. This intricate process, unchanged from that of Dehua craftsmen a thousand years ago, allows no shortcuts. In focus, we find the way forward.

At Palatti, we’re committed to giving back to the planet. As proud supporters of One Tree Planted, we contribute ourselves to global reforestation efforts.
