Swissgold KF300 1 Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Swissgold is best known for their 24K gold permanent filters. I use one in by Bunn drip brewer because unlike paper filters the gold filter does not impair any filter taste. I purchased the Swissgold KF 300 to use when I just want a single cup but to tell you the truth it makes a better cup of coffee then my Bunn drip brewer. The reason for this is because coffee should be brewed at a temperature between 200 & 205 degrees. My Bunn brewer unfortunately only reaches a temperature of 190.
You heat the water on the stove until boiling point take it off the burner and let it set for 30 seconds or so to let the temperature drop a little and then pour it into the KF300, it is as simple as that. The only negative thing I can say about the KF 300 is I wish it brewed a little more coffee at a time. When you fill up the reservoir it holds about 8 oz. I cheat a little and add a little more water when the level drops because I use a 12 oz mug. If you want a single great cup of coffee I highly recommend this brewer.

The Swissgold KF300 is a one cup pour over drip coffee maker featuring the famous swissgold permanent coffee filter. Popularized by Melitta, pour over drip coffee makers are a favorite brewing method for many coffee aficionados. Simply put ground coffee in the filter, position the filter over your favorite mug (fits most common mug sizes) and pour hot water over the grounds. An insert in the filter mechanism has holes spaced out to regulate water flow and create a shower head brewing effect for even coffee grounds saturation and extraction of full flavor. If your current drip coffee maker is not brewing hot enough, this may be the way to go since you control the temperature of the water used for brewing. The filter pieces come apart for easy cleaning. Another quality product from Swissgold.

Melitta Cone Filter Manual Coffeemaker Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When you have the money and want a fancy manual drip maker, you can look at Chemex or Bodum. But, if you want good coffee at a good price, this is it. In our day coffee came in a 16 oz can and we drank whatever was cheapest. Now kids know the difference between Robusta and Arabica and go to a local roaster on the day their regional favorite is being roasted. Fancy Auto-Drip machines don't heat the water hot enough, build up calcium, and don't immerse all the grind correctly. French pots let silt and bitter elements of the coffee through. This method takes some time and effort, but if you like good coffee, its worth it. This coffee maker goes for about the price as a bag of good coffee.

The utmost in simplicity this method allows you to pour hot water directly on the grounds. Gravity takes over from there and in a matter of minutes you have brewed coffee.

RSVP Maunual Drip Coffee Filter Cone for Carafes or Thermos Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought a Zojirushi 1L carafe and was very happy with it. Then read in the instructions that there was an option to put a Manual Drip Filter Cone that could be used to make coffee directly into the carafe. I checked it out on Amazon but saw a lot of criticisms that gave me pause. But slowly I started checking them out one by one and found them either to be wrong or irrelevant. The most important criticisms that I saw was that the thing dripped too slowly and was structurally unbalanced.
One reviewer made the claim that their Melitta One cup cone had 4 holes and thus drained coffee quickly. I also own a Melitta one cup drip cone and found that (despite claims to the contrary) there is only one hole in that device and that did not prevent the Melitta one cup from making coffee in less 30 seconds
There was also a claim that Melitta's 10 cup Cone/Carafe would be better as it would be faster than this Manual Drip Coffee Cone. But I checked out the Melitta at a local Ace Hardware and again it only has one hole. Plus the thing is so wide it would be useless for the purpose of making coffee directly into my Zojirushi carafe.
So seeing how these two criticisms were factually inaccurate I bit the bullet and bought the cone and just received it two days ago. On initial inspection, I can see how someone could say it seems structurally unstable. But this thing has a small hollow cylinder jutting out from the bottom of the cone (not shown in in the picture) through which coffee drains (like a typical funnel). And when you insert this cylinder into the narrow neck of a carafe or thermos it is absolutely rock solid. On my Zojirushi, it is as if they were made for each other. If you needed to use this make coffee for a cup or mug then you probably are better off with the Melitta one cup cone.
I ground my beans extra fine for cone filters and it took 3 minutes to make 1L of great coffee. I don't know that may be way too long for some people (as others did not post times I can't say) but it's perfectly fine for me. So at least for me the claim of being too slow was just not true.
I can't wait until the weekend. I usually percolate a pot of coffee and read the paper and some books to pass away the morning before exercising and doing household chores.
====================
It's been over half a year since I bought the cone and have nothing but good experiences with it. I like it so much I bought another so I could make a pot of coffee at work. I have noticed that with extremely fine ground coffee (where the grounds turn to mud in the filter), the drainage is slower but you can try stirring the grounds as it drains, putting in the filter at a 90 degree angle to keep the filter from sticking against the sides of cone. I've never had a persitant problem of slow drainage. In any case, every day I use this cone to make a litre of coffee. It takes me less than 10 minutes to grind the beans, make the coffee, cleanup and walk back to my desk where all my coworkers fight amongst themselves as to who gets to drink my coffee a litre goes pretty fast when you've got five people drinking it.
I don't claim that everyone will have this experience but as I said for someone who just wants a cup of coffee in the morning and some to share with friends, this has been a wonderful purchase.

The best way to keep coffee hot is to brew it directly into a preheated thermal carafe or thermos. RSVP's filter cone features a long extension which directs filter-brewed coffee down inside the opening of a carafe or thermos. The 2-1/2" flange fits a wide variety of carafes and thermoses.

Melitta U S A Inc 640007 Perfect Brew Filter Cone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I like this product. It is inexpensive, has filters that can be found anywhere, and provides real coffee taste in instant coffee quantities and time. This is great for me, because I do not drink more than 1 cup at a time, and making any more would just waste coffee time and money.
This cone allows you to come up with your own perfect brewing recipe without wasting pounds and pounds of coffee. The way the beans are roasted, the quality of those beans, the amount of coffee grounds you use and how they're ground, the temperature of the water: all of these have a bearing on the taste of your coffee.
First, the water:
The industry standard for the ideal cup of coffee begins with a water temperature of 195-205 degrees. This is not quite boiling, which is why the "Monsieur Brew" brands make such bad coffee. Brewing with water at the boiling point over-extracts the beans, making for an overly bitter-tasting result.
Use a food thermometer to find this temperature range and use it with 2 tablespoons of coffee per 8 ounce cup of output as a starting point. Then vary the amount of grounds and water temperature as you see fit.
Now for the grind and blend of your coffee beans:
Melitta recommends that you get a coffee ground a little finer than the standard drip grind. You can easily get this done in one of the better supermarkets that has a coffee grinder for specialty coffees.
As for the blend, I'm not going to recommend brands, but the hallmark of inferior blends of coffee is that they start tasting sharp and nasty as they cool down. If this still happens with your Melitta filter after you've used the right amount of coffee and the right temperature of water, then you can blame it on your daily grind. With this filter you will quickly find which brands are good and which are bad in a matter of cups, not pots.
After this, keeping a couple of brief notes on what you do and how much stuff you use per cup will lead you to the best recipe for your kind of coffee in a relatively short period of time.

Melitta Cone Filter Coffeemaker 10 Cup, 1-Count Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After my last coffee maker died (the fourth or fifth one in just eight years), I was sick of the electric coffee pot. This very simple set-up was inexpensive and doesn't have any electrical parts to break.
The best thing, though, is that this makes the best coffee ever. Seriously. Here's the method: I grind my beans right before brewing. I pour boiling water over the grounds, just enough to soak them. Then I pour again to fill the filter with water. And I stir with a spoon. Pour and stir, pour and stir, until all the water has gone through. Simple, easy, and amazingly good coffee. It's way better than anything I got from my overpriced electrical machines.

Melitta Padfilter - Refillable Coffee Pod Filter for the Senseo & Senseo Deluxe, Better Than Ecopads Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought these pods because they were rated the highest quality to use with the Senseo. The pods do work great,with the 2 pod holder. You need to finely grind the coffee. I did find the lid hard to close. I bought another brand that cost less to compare. The lesser expensive ones worked just as well and were easier to close. If you want good pod coffee with the foam,these work well,and you won't loose the lid.
