A South Indian brass coffee filter, the two-part press that makes the decoction at the heart of filter kaapi. Ground coffee goes in the top chamber, hot water drips through into the base, and the pressing disc tamps it down. Mix the decoction with hot milk and sugar for a proper cup. Pure brass, hand-etched.

Size and material

7 inches | 18 cm in height
3 inches | 7.5 cm in diameter
100% pure brass, with a radiant golden finish.

Care

Hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately to avoid water spots. Do not use a dishwasher or abrasive materials. Over time, the brass may develop a vintage patina, but a simple brass cleaner will restore its shine if desired.

Brass Care

Keeping your food grade brass pieces from Vaarsa London is easier than you think. Simple steps you can use:

📌Start by gently emptying the piece and hand-washing the residue.

📌Then, for the deep clean mix Pitambari powder with a little water to make a thick paste. Apply it on the brass in gentle circular motions. Let it sit for a minute then rub again, especially over tarnished spots. It’s normal if the paste darkens, that means it’s working.

📌Rinse thoroughly with water and dry completely using a soft microfibre cloth before you use it again.

And that’s it. Your brass, cleaned, cared for, and glowing like new.
