What ever happened to the Clover Coffee Brewer? :: Great Northern Roasting Company

The Clover coffee brewer stormed onto the scene and changed the coffee brewer world...but where is it now? Starbucks purchased the company that created the highly esteemed brewer and effectively squashed the buzz. But why? See the entire post at http://www.CoffeeNate.com/the-clover-coffee-brewer-great-northern-roasting-co... I also had the pleasure of using a Clover brewer when I visited the Great Northern Roasting Company! GNRC is located in beautiful Traverse City, MIchigan, and owns one of the original Clover brewers, but that's not all...

@bmurphskiing Yeah, if you had watched the video or read the post you would know that I explained this. Thanks though. ツ

Am I correct in thinking it works like a french press in reverse?

[coffeenate1]

@davideshafer No, it is more like a syphon than a french press, but it is much more precise than the french press method. The Clover can repeat the same exact cup over and over again, not like a french press.

If I recall, you did the syphon method and I thought of it as an over complicated way to make coffee. This would be the counter schulpture version. Okay, will you ever be triing out the Turkish coffee method?
