Kalita KDP-800 Spout Design

• The narrow outlet is shaped to produce a fine, slow stream, making it easier to adjust water volume and pouring speed during pour-over brewing.
• The straight-flow S-shaped spout and redesigned handle support a natural grip and help reduce wrist fatigue during use.
• The slim, streamlined opening also makes it easier to start and stop the water stream cleanly.

Kalita KDP-800 Pour-over Kettle — Key Features

Designed by the Japanese brand Kalita, the KDP-800 is a large-capacity 800ml stainless-steel pour-over kettle with a black-walnut-grain finish. Its Red Dot and iF Design Award recognition reflects a practical design shaped around barista workflows.

• The carefully shaped spout supports a fine hot-water stream, helping the brewer manage volume and speed.
• The tight-fitting spring lid opens and closes with light finger pressure and helps reduce accidental hot-water splashes.
• Generous 800ml capacity in lightweight, sturdy stainless steel.
• The refined black-walnut-grain finish adds a considered touch to the pour-over ritual.
• Closing the lid helps retain heat, while opening it allows the water to cool more quickly when adjusting brewing temperature.
• Do not heat the kettle directly. Fill it with pre-heated water before pour-over brewing.

Design Inspiration and Concept

• The design draws on the black walnut used in traditional Japanese interiors. Its composed grain and tone echo the deliberate ritual of preparing coffee by hand.
• The aim is a practical, visually refined brewing tool that makes manual coffee preparation more enjoyable.
