Compatible with Hario V60 Pour Over Coffee Filters - Reusable Stainless Steel - Best Coffee Maker and Bar Accessories (Gold Titanium Coated)

I'm a pretty hardcore coffee drinker, I use every brewing method depending on what mood I'm in. I find the pour over method to be the fastest, most convenient and controllable other then a coffee machine; no self respecting coffee connoisseur uses a auto coffee machine unless its the only thing available but I digress. I'm a staunch researcher when I'm in the market for a particular item, I research for days even weeks to make sure I purchase the best product for my needs. If your looking for a filter you can use repeatedly and reliably with consistent results without sacrificing quality this filter is for you. The filter your using is just as important as every other component when it comes to brewing the perfect cup of coffee. I use the Chemex double wall coffee pot and this filter was designed to function with this kind of coffee pot, it fits perfectly. I use a burr grinder on medium fine setting and I dump the coffee in the filter leaving the coffee in a pile. I know its tempting to shake the filter to level off the pile but this is a mistake, just leave the coffee in a pile. Get your coffee at the perfect temperature depending on roast I use 203 degrees for medium roast and start to slowly pour the water directly in the center of the pile eroding a small hole all the way down. Keep a steady stream of water in that same spot and you'll notice the coffee grounds in the center start to roll towards the outside. making sure to keep a steady stream of water in the center the water level in the filter will begin to rise brewing the rest of the coffee. Towards the end of the pour move the stream of water all around the top of the coffee until you run out of water or when desired amount of coffee is brewed. I've been brewing pour over coffee this way since I the day learned from a professional barista and it by far brews the best pot of coffee. This filter is the best filter on the market when it comes to reusable coffee filters, leaves absolutely no flavor in the coffee and almost no fine coffee particulates, Its a great filter you wont regret your purchase. to clean the filter is as easy as just running the filter under the sink and placing it upside down to dry and you're done.

Bought this three years ago and still use it everyday. After awhile it was running slower which is to be expected but the BEST way I've found to clean it is with one of those melamine sponges. Like the Magic Eraser. Just moisten it, squeeze it out and wipe and scrub the filter. Amazing the stain that comes off and the filter was running like new again. These sponges will also remove stains from coffee mugs and tea pots as well as the bottom of pans, stainless refrigerators and more. I don't think there is anything harmful in them since there aren't any chemicals but I'm sure we'll find out there is later. In the meantime, try it for your filter and see how easy it cleans.

Beyond the improved flavor of the coffee there were a couple of extra nice surprises over the $50 stainless steel filter I bought several years ago. My wife loves that the water drain fairly quickly. Maybe the other filter is a bit clogged. This was a plus because my wife is happier. Obviously if you know anything about brewing coffee, you want to wet it with a little bit of hot water then wait at least ten seconds as this will bring out the best flavor. I don't mind that it drains fast because I let it fill to the top of the cup so it can pull more caffeine from the coffee. While the bottom of the cone is steep in the coffee. The other nice surprise is that the filter is so fine there is no residue at the bottom of the cup. I like to make only one cup at a time. Update: 04/15/2020 I am not understanding any reviews of clogging. I use it twice and have no issues. For me it actually drains a bit too fast as I want to extract more caffeine from my coffee. What I do is pour a bit and wait ten seconds then pour some more and once it reaches the top of my mug, I let the cone sit in the coffee for a couple of minutes so the coffee steeps and gives up some of that needed buzz.

I went online to purchase paper filters for my Chemex, and then saw this product and decided to give it a whirl. Below are pros and cons: Pros: - Filter works very well. I used on two successive mornings and coffee was delicious. - Good quality. Fits perfectly into the Chemex. Also, I appreciated the rubber gasket that goes along the top of the cone; this creates a good seal so if you happen to pour too much water into the filter, the grounds won't seep into the Chemex. Cons: - Usability. I didn't like the procedure. Think of it this way: You pour the very hot water through the filter; after all the water is poured you're ready to pour a cup of coffee, so you remove the filter. It doesn't drip much because the filter holes are very fine, however there are still wet grounds in there. So you turn it over to dump them out (I put them into a plastic receptacle and then do a weekly dump into the compost pile), but the metal part of the cone where you have to hold it is very hot (obviously because you just poured 210 degree water through there). You manage this, but still about 20% of the grounds are sticking onto the filter, which requires you to manually wipe them out with a paper towel or something. And the cone is still hot. After wiping them out there's still about 5% of the grounds in there, mostly stuck in the very bottom of the cone. So your last recourse is to rinse it into the sink. This allows grounds to go into the drain; I wipe as much as I can out of the sink, but inevitably some slip into the drain, and coffee grounds and drains are not a good match. As long as you're in the sink, you may as well wash the filter with soap, etc. Meanwhile, back at the Chemex, some heat loss has occurred with the coffee. This was my experience anyway. Maybe there is a better "workflow" for this, but I just found it infinitely easier to remove and discard the paper filter with grounds. - Cleaning and longevity. Some reviews I read mentioned that they had issues with the filter clogging. Indeed, in the packaging there are actually instructions on how to clean, and what to do if it clogs. Putting in dishwasher, soaking in vinegar, etc. Nothing that's a big deal. But the fact that they addressed this in the packaging gives credibility to the reviews that cite this as an issue. And so the question then becomes, do you want to spend time maintaining a filter. Neutral: - Price is still probably a little steep, but it should pay for itself after a year (or less depending on how much you brew) of use. Conclusion: I'm rating this 4 stars because I don't think there's anything wrong with the product. It does what it says it will do, and it seems to do it well, which is to serve as a substitute for paper filters. However I decided to return due to the "usability" issue described above. My mornings are already a multitasking bonanza with making breakfast, packing lunches, feeding the dog, etc and I just don't need to add anything else to the morning workflow. If this doesn't describe you though then it might be a good fit.

I bought this for two reasons. First, my electric coffeemaker makes too much coffee for one person, but I can't discipline myself to make a half-pot. And second, the damn thing broke again (they usually do after a couple of years). Having recently been exposed to the wonders of pour-over coffee, I decided to give this a try. It's only my first day, but I LOVE IT! Not having a big noisy (and, let's face it, ugly) coffee machine on the counter is wonderful. And this little guy makes the making of coffee into a delightful ritual... heat the water... grind the beans, pour the first "bloom".... It takes about 5 minutes to make a full pot, which I thought would be a problem but is't. Usually I'm just hanging around the kitchen waiting for the coffee to be ready anyway, so it's no hassle to stop and pour a bit more every few minutes. Re: Amount. Some people have complained it's not a big enough pot. It seems to be about 4 "normal" sized cups--ie not the oversized mugs that we drink out of these days, but ordinary coffee sized coffee mugs. Since I usually drink three-and-a-bit, that's just perfect. What would I change? Well, it'd be nice if the carafe were made out of Pyrex. Also, it would be lovely to have a lid that fits over the carafe to keep the steam in (I used a plate which fit perfectly, but would have been nice to have had one). And I think I may get an insulated pitcher to keep the coffee in after brewing, because it does cool off a bit (but still, WAY better than having it cook on the burner). All that said, I'm delighted to have this. It's pretty, it's fun to use, and it MAKES GREAT COFFEE!

I bought this back in 2019 and now in 2025, it is still working well and going strong. It is easy to bend so just be careful/gentle when cleaning it, but if you take care of it, it will definitely last you many years. I highly recommend this product! Added details: I used this to make the coffee for iced lattes. I have tried many types of coffee brands and beans (both whole beans ground with my Virtuoso as well as coffee bought already ground) and I have found that Death Wish Coffee Co. beans (medium) works best for me and my preferred taste profile. I use a steel goose neck kettle on a stove top to bring water to a boil and don't get down to actually measuring the temperature like some on here have said (people actually do that? lol). Then, I pour into a cup of ice and add my favorite creamer/flavors. Everyone has their own methods and taste profiles but this is what I do.

I have a few stainless filters but this one is absolutely the best. It fits beautifully over my Chemex with a nice seal and cleans up very quickly. It feels sold and well made and I am very happy with it. Bought two!

This was a wonderful filter that produced great-tasting coffee... but the seam on the inner filter layer started fraying. Even if I was careful not to rub it the wrong way when washing it, the fraying got worse and worse until the seam opened up at which point I had to stop using it. I replaced it with a different brand of single-layer filter... which is not as good but has shown absolutely no wear over time.
