The Hoop Coffee Brewer is one of those coffee makers that invites us to experiment with how we prepare filtered coffee at home. Designed by Ceado, this infusion coffee maker offers a different approach: simplifying the process without sacrificing a clean, balanced extraction full of nuances. A tool designed both for those new to specialty coffee and for those seeking consistent results with minimal effort.
A new concept in radial infusion
Unlike traditional pouring methods, Hoop operates using a radial diffusion system. Instead of pouring water directly onto the coffee, it is deposited in an outer circuit surrounding the infusion tower. From there, the water reaches the coffee through a series of micro-perforations located at the bottom of the tower.
This design allows the water to come into contact with the coffee in a uniform, gentle and constant manner, without turbulence or preferential channels. Sure, the result is a more homogeneous extraction, capable of bringing out the aromas and flavours of the coffee without the need for complex pouring techniques.
The parts of the Hoop Coffee Brewer
The coffee maker consists of three main elements that are easy to assemble and disassemble. They are as follows.
- Infusion tower that regulates the flow of water into the coffee through its side holes.
- Paper filter, compatible with Aeropress-type filters, placed between the tower and the base.
- An outer circuit that contains the water during preparation and ensures a controlled flow.
Once the parts are assembled, the Hoop is ready to be placed directly on a jug or large cup. Make sure that the container has a wide enough mouth and a low handle, as the base of the coffee maker measures 6.88 cm in diameter.
How to make coffee with Hoop
Making coffee with Hoop is certainly an intuitive and accessible process. While heating the water—ideally to around 95 °C—weigh out between 15 and 20 grams of coffee. Then grind it to a medium setting, suitable for filter methods.
Meanwhile, place the paper filter in the coffee maker and moisten it with hot water to remove any residual flavours and preheat the whole thing. Next, add the ground coffee to the brewing chamber. The next step is as simple as pouring all the hot water into the outer circuit and letting the coffee maker do its job.
For a balanced recipe, a good starting point is a ratio of 1:16. That means adding 15 grams of coffee to about 240 ml of water, with a total extraction time of approximately 4 minutes. From there, each user can adjust the quantities and grind according to their preferences.
Coffee without rules, but with great results
It is clear that one of Hoop’s great virtues is that it eliminates many of the variables that often intimidate those approaching filter coffee for the first time. There is no need to control the pouring speed or perform specific movements. The coffee maker distributes the water evenly, allowing you to focus on what is truly important: the coffee and its flavour.
This approach makes Hoop an ideal tool for those who want to explore different origins and profiles without technical complications. And always maintaining a high and consistent extraction quality.
Easy cleaning and durable materials
Hoop also stands out for its ease of cleaning. Once brewing is complete, simply unscrew the brewing tower slightly to easily remove the paper filter. All parts can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher, making it a practical choice for everyday use.

Lightweight and compact design
With a net weight of only 165 grams and dimensions of 13.2 x 8.4 cm, Hoop is one of the easiest coffee makers to store and transport. Its compact design makes it perfect for home use, travel, or professional environments where a fast and reliable brewing method is required.
A different way to enjoy coffee
Hoop Coffee Brewer represents a different way of understanding coffee preparation: fewer rules, less technique and more enjoyment. It is a coffee maker that allows you to focus on the coffee bean and its expression in the cup. For all these reasons, it is ideal for experimenting with speciality coffees such as those we select at Cafés El Magnífico.
Trying Hoop with a single-origin coffee, freshly roasted and adapted to filtering methods, is an excellent way to appreciate aromatic nuances, sweetness and balance, and to discover new ways to enjoy coffee at home with consistent, high-quality results.
