The Signature Series Pour-Over in white porcelain is the more refined line of Melitta's single-cup drippers, with a glossy finish stated by the manufacturer. Unlike the base porcelain model in the range, this one uses only #4 size cone filters, while the other accepts both #2 and #4.
The manufacturer describes two inspection holes on the body, meant to prevent the coffee from overflowing during pouring; these are viewing holes for checking the level, not drain holes at the bottom of the cone, which remain undeclared.
It is a manual accessory with no electrical parts: the result depends on the coffee grind, the water pour speed and the paper filter chosen.
