About the object: The warm material of the coffee lot increases the anticipation of coffee enjoyment even more. This plumb bob has a capacity of about one slightly heaped normal teaspoon, which is approx. 3.5 grams of coffee powder.
For an espresso, you need the amount of two coffee plumb bobs. One coffee pod is enough for a cup of filter coffee. And tea can of course be portioned just as well. The exact portion quantity depends on personal taste.
Production: The product is made from fruit or garden wood, which comes almost exclusively from private gardens in the Bremen area, the surroundings of Hergen Böttcher's workshop. The wood dries for several years before the objects are carved out of the wood. Hergen Böttcher selects the wood individually for each object and turns it by hand in such a way that the special characteristics of the tree's life remain visible: Color changes between heartwood and sapwood as well as ingrown knots. Growths or natural discolorations can give the pieces unique structures . Deformations or cracks are signs of the drying process and are just as intentional as long as they do not impair the function of the object.
