Hario TCA-3 and TCA-5 Classic Japanese Vintage Syphon Brewers
Requiem.Coffee — TCA-3 and TCA-5 Syphon Brewers: Hand-Selected for Quality. 100% Faithful to its Japanese roots.
Our Requiem.Coffee TCA-3 is chosen for one reason: to give beginners the purest, most reliable introduction to the art of syphon brewing. Every unit is hand-selected for build quality, heat stability, and its exact likeness to the original Hario design — the machine that defined Japanese coffee culture.
With its classic 3-cup capacity, the TCA-3 is the perfect size for learning the full ritual:
the rise, the bloom, the stir, and the drawdown. It’s forgiving enough for first-timers, yet precise enough to reward careful technique. The borosilicate glass chambers deliver clean, even extraction, and the cloth filter system produces a cup that is bright, aromatic, and silky in texture.
Best of all, the Requiem.Coffee TCA-3 handles any of our roasts beautifully — from the soft floral sweetness of our King’s Roast to the dark, koji-fermented depth of the Worker’s Roast. However you brew, it brings out the bean’s true voice.
A perfect entry into the world of syphon coffee, and a brewer worthy of its place in our travelling museum of coffee heritage.
For those who want a little more presence on the counter — or a little more coffee in the pot — the TCA-5 is the TCA-3’s commanding big brother. With its larger 5-cup capacity and broader heat profile, it offers greater stability, smoother drawdowns, and the ability to showcase our roasts in full, expressive batches. Perfect for small gatherings, café-style service at home, or simply those who prefer their ritual a touch grander.
