The Origami dripper is a Japanese ceramic dripper instantly recognizable by its 20 pleated ribs, made in the Mino ware pottery tradition. It shot to worldwide fame when Jia Ning Du won the 2019 World Brewers Cup with it, and its party trick is unmatched versatility: it accepts both cone and wave filters.

Switch to a wave filter and the flat-ish bed slows things down, evening out extraction and producing a rounder, sweeter profile that is far more forgiving of pour technique. That one-dripper-two-characters range is why so many competition baristas keep an Origami on the bench.
