A 62° dripper shaped for clarity, balance, and calm control.
Inspired by the rhythm of ancient Shanwen Armor 山文甲, refined into a dripper of clean flow and quiet balance.
A conical dripper defined by angle and texture
The Dragonfly CT62 Coffee Dripper is built around a proprietary 62° conical geometry, developed to create a broad and stable extraction range. Paired with its 24-groove structure, the form is designed to support even water distribution and a more composed drawdown, whether the pour is centered or carried in a wider circular motion. Rather than demanding a narrow technique, it offers a controlled but flexible brewing response, allowing the user to work with greater freedom while maintaining balance in the cup.
Recessed channels for a steadier brew path
Inside the dripper, the flow structure departs from the more conventional raised-rib format. The interior uses recessed channels to guide water downward, while an added ring of horizontal grooves near the base helps regulate flow through the lower chamber. According to the source material, this construction is intended to improve extraction consistency while reducing the uneven rhythm that can occur when a brew runs too quickly at first and slows too heavily toward the end. The result is a brew path that feels more stable, more even, and easier to read during the pour.
Matte glaze, sharp lines, and a snow-like gradient
The outer form of the CT62 is one of its most distinctive qualities. Finished in a matte glaze with the white porcelain body faintly visible beneath, the surface holds a quiet contrast between softness and definition. Its faceted exterior gives the dripper a clear, angular presence, while the firing method creates a subtle glaze gradation from thin to thick, flowing downward across the form. The effect is refined and atmospheric, like a light layer of snow settling over a mountain ridge. This treatment gives the dripper visual depth without making it feel ornamental, and allows the ceramic surface to carry both tactility and stillness.
Why it is called CT 62
The name CT 62 comes from the meeting of two defining elements: the Shanwen Armor texture 山文甲 on the outer wall and the dripper’s 62° internal angle. The mountain-pattern exterior draws from historical visual language, while the brewing geometry defines the dripper’s functional identity. Together, they form a name that is not merely descriptive, but structural—linking appearance, material expression, and extraction logic in one object.
Designed to pair with the Dragonfly support system
The CT62 Transit Pro Dripper is designed to pair with the Conical Dripper Holder and Silicone Ring, for a more stable and complete brewing setup. These accessories help support the brewer more securely during use, improving balance both visually and functionally on the brew table. All accessories are sold separately.

Bringing Contemporary Chinese Design into Filter Coffee Brewing
Founded in 1996, DragonFly Design Centre 清庭設計 is a design-led brand built around the vision of founder and creative director Jeff Dayu Shi (石大宇). Rooted in contemporary design inspired by Chinese culture, the brand has developed a distinctive language that brings together craftsmanship, symbolism, and practical innovation across lifestyle and coffee objects alike.
Inspired by Culture, Designed for Brewing
For DragonFly, coffee equipment is more than a brewing tool — it is a meeting point of culture, form, and sensory experience. Their filter coffee designs often draw from traditional Chinese visual references while translating them into modern brewing objects with strong functionality. The result is a collection of drippers and servers that feel both expressive and purposeful, made for brewers who value character as much as cup quality.
Precision in Filter Coffee Design
DragonFly’s coffee line is especially known for its thoughtfully engineered manual brewing drippers. The CT62 Coffee Dripper, designed by Jeff Dayu Shi together with Jake Yuan Cheng Hu of Taster’s Coffee, features a 62-degree cone angle, a structured groove system, and a design intended to promote more stable flow, reduce clogging, and support even extraction. It uses standard V60 01/02 filter papers, making it approachable for both professionals and home brewers
Where Aesthetics Meet Performance
What makes DragonFly stand out is the way it approaches coffee equipment as both a functional brewer and a design object. The surfaces, textures, and structural details are not merely decorative; they are integrated into how the brewer manages water flow and extraction. This balance of beauty and brewing performance gives DragonFly a unique place in the specialty coffee world, especially for those drawn to original drippers with a strong identity.
Recognised in the Coffee and Design World
DragonFly’s brewing designs have gained international attention not only for their visual language, but also for their technical thoughtfulness. The CT62 has been described as a dripper that combines cultural inspiration with functional brewing design, and DragonFly’s newer coffee pieces — including the rock ’n’ dew coffee server and Tri-Spin dripper series — were recognised by the German Design Award 2026 for their combination of aroma-focused design, extraction control, and user experience.
A Distinct Voice in Specialty Filter Coffee
From drippers to servers, DragonFly Design Center brings a different perspective to specialty coffee: one that is deeply design-conscious, culturally rooted, and focused on elevating the ritual of hand brewing. Their coffee equipment speaks to brewers who appreciate not only clarity and control in the cup, but also the meaning and beauty of the tools they use every day.
