HKM-7301075 304 Stainless Steel Hexagonal Design Pour Over Coffee Kettle with Slender Spout

HKM-7301075 · Electric Kettles · 801–900 ml, Walnut, Matte Black

Hexagonal Body, Walnut Handle

HKM-7301075 is a pour-over kettle with a hexagonal body drawn from 304 stainless steel in a matte black finish, a walnut handle and a walnut knob on the lid, and a slender gooseneck spout that turns through a right angle at the tip. The volume sits somewhere between 801 and 900 ml, which is the range the listing gives rather than a single figure.

It is built for the person who pours rather than the person who fills: the spout is narrow and long, the handle is set high and held away from the body, and the hexagonal wall gives the hand a flat face to index against while the wrist turns. A full pot covers two 250 ml cups, or a single large mug with water left for a rinse of the filter.

At a Glance

• Type — pour-over kettle with gooseneck spout, non-electric
• Volume — 801–900 ml, listed as a range
• Body — 304 stainless steel, matte black finish
• Spout — slender gooseneck with a 90° turn at the tip
• Handle — walnut, insulated, heat-resistant
• Lid — flat lid with a walnut knob

Materials and Construction

The body is 304 stainless steel, pressed and joined into six flat faces that meet at soft corners, so the silhouette reads as a cone from the front and as a hexagon from above. The outside carries a matte black finish that kills most of the reflection; the inside is photographed dark as well, and the listing states 304 stainless steel for the material without describing a lining, so the interior coating is recorded as unstated.

The spout is a drawn tube welded to the lower wall at a shallow angle, then bent upward and turned through 90° at the tip — the geometry the supplier's own graphic calls right-angle diversion. It is narrow at the mouth, which is what makes a slow, straight stream possible, and it leaves the body low enough that the last of the water still pours.

• The handle is a turned walnut cylinder, mounted on a black bracket that stands it off the wall so the fingers clear the hot steel.
• The knob is walnut too, seated in a recessed lid that sits flat rather than domed, with a small vent hole beside it.
• The base is slightly wider than the shoulder, so the pot stands without a ring and the centre of gravity drops as it empties.

How It Works

Water is heated elsewhere — the pot has no element, cord, base or thermostat, and the listing makes no electrical claim for it. Once filled, it is carried by the walnut handle and poured through the gooseneck: the narrow tube converts a tilt of the wrist into a thin, continuous stream rather than a gulp, and the right-angle tip drops that stream vertically onto the bed of coffee instead of across it.

For pour-over the sequence is a bloom, a first pour to about twice the weight of the grounds, a pause, and then slow circles from the centre out. The hexagonal body helps here in a small way: the flat faces give a consistent grip as the pot empties and the angle of the pour has to be held for a minute or more. The lid keeps the heat in between pours and the vent beside the knob lets air in so the stream does not stutter.

Nothing in the listing states a capacity in ounces, a boil time, or a temperature rating, so none is given; the pot holds water and pours it, and the heat comes from whatever it stands on.

Placement and Use

The pot belongs beside the dripper, within a forearm's reach of the scale, with the spout pointing across the counter rather than at the wall. Because the handle projects at an angle and the spout is long, the footprint on the counter is wider than the base suggests — allow room on both sides before setting a full pot down.

• Fill below the seam where the spout meets the wall; above it the pour starts before the wrist does.
• Hold the handle at its upper third, where the bracket takes the load and the walnut stays cool longest.
• Set the pot down on a dry surface; the base is steel and transmits heat straight through to stone or laminate.

Included and Optional

Colours and Finishes

One finish is sold: matte black over 304 stainless steel, with walnut for the handle and the knob. The colour is listed as black and photographed from six angles, so the surface is established rather than implied — a low-sheen coat with a faint texture, darker at the corners of the hexagon and lighter along the flat faces where the light falls.

The walnut is a natural material, so the grain and tone vary from one pot to the next; the pieces in the gallery run from a mid brown to a darker, redder tone. The bracket, the lid rim and the spout are black, and the only bright metal on the object is the cut edge at the mouth of the spout.

Care and Maintenance

Rinse the body with warm water after each use and dry it with a soft cloth; the matte finish shows water spots more than a polished one does, and a towel is quicker than air. A bottle brush reaches the shoulder where coffee oils collect, and a mild washing-up liquid is enough for those. Abrasive pads and descalers strong enough to etch steel are not for this surface.

The walnut needs the opposite treatment: no soaking, no dishwasher, and a wipe with a barely damp cloth followed by a dry one. A drop of food-safe oil once a season keeps the grain from drying and lifting. The lid should be lifted by the knob rather than levered at the rim, since the fit is close and the rim is thin.
