The Nucleus Paragon Pour-Over Stand was developed by Sasa Sestic and Nucleus to enable a new brewing method that focuses on capturing the volatile aroma compounds in coffee that are lost in the brewing process. In their research, they found that chilling the extraction immediately after the brew phase helped retain components that were previously lost to the high temperatures of the brewing process. The Paragon achieves this by placing a chilling rock directly under the pour-over brewer of your choice, resulting in more aromatic and flavorful brews.
