A lot of people say that the Kalita Wave is great for beginners. DON'T listen to them. Here's my take on these two drippers.

Some people say that it’s easier to brew with a flat bottomed dripper like the Kalita Wave compared to the cone-shaped one, because there’s some flow restriction going on. Personally, I don’t think that’s the case at all.

In my opinion, beginners are better suited with cone-shaped brewers such as the Hario V60 since they are more likely to brew darker roasted coffee or coffee of lower quality.

Both Hario V60 and the Kalita Wave have their own pros and cons, and I use them for different purposes. Let’s use an audio analogy to better understand what’s going on:

The Hario is like a set of speakers with plenty of bass and treble. I think audio geeks call this calibration ‘fun sounding’.

Flat bottom drippers are typically more like a set of neutral studio monitors. They give a clear, unbiased representation sound stage with a balanced EQ. For this reason the Kalita Wave lends itself better to high-end light roasted coffee, where you want to be able to pick out a bunch of different flavor notes at the same time.

Which dripper I prefer depends on the mood and the beans that I have at hand.

A good rule of thumb, though, is that coffees under 82 points often need the extra oomph you get from the cone shape — attributes like increased acidity and complexity in the aftertaste.
