十多年前朋友送的 Hario siphon ，現在想用 Burner 學煮咖啡，請問下壺底部只離臺面三吋半，gas burner 可否 fit in？

謝謝各位。
如果有圖看看，就更清晰了。

十多年前的 Hario siphon, has been kept too long, suggest to sink the glasses part in water overnight first to avoid too easy to crack when boiling - I hope my concern is wrong.
I guess you may also need a hand operated coffee mill or electronic coffee grinder :
Best valued with good performance electronic grinder,
it also can be your espresso grinder when you interest in the FUTURE:

Thanks bib for your reply and advice.

This is my siphon (Hario MCA-5). I did tested it recently and it worked fine.



I emailed Miss Landy who suggested me getting something to raise up the siphon in order to apply the gas burner. I have no idea what something is and think it may look ugly.

At present, I am using a Moka and French Press and would like to set up the Siphon very soon.

Hello A-A,

I think you may go to some metal ware shop to tailor make a C shaped stand for your height extension with better look;
but the price nearly or more expensive than get a new bigger Hario with higher bottom to the burner.

or make a U- shape pottery one with the same shape as the base of the Hario you have- I think it can be very nice looking.

em, IMHO, the gas burner I talked about above should be short enough for you, if not; this rack may suit for you - OK looking but it is for moka pot:

In your case, you also use some other way/s to make coffee,
if you put boiled hot water to siphon and use the original fuel to make, it is ok too. Since not much fuel you use.
If I were you, I would do the normal way to make and use the $ for a better grinder which makes better coffee.
Smart spend.
Sorry, just want to help to spend more valuable.

Please update your setup (picture/s) of siphon if you get another base/extension.
Thank you for sharing.

Hi bib,

Thanks again.

The manual grinder came with the siphon 16 year ago. I am looking at a Solis Scala 166. I won't go for Espresso.



Do you think the gas burner would fit in the 3 1/2 " space ?

Ho ho bib, thank you.

I think I can manage to get one if Landy does not carry the small burner.

Thank you.

I'll post the pic of my siphon with a burner Asap.


Have a nice day.

not a problem really. if your syphon is too low.. just buy some 膠"質"。
