Sometimes one cup is all you want!
I rarely make a pot of coffee. More often it is one cup in the morning and maybe one later in the day. I also like trying different brands, grinds and such. This makes it easy. You make one cup at a time to exactly the strength you want it. I suppose the best way to make coffee is with a French Press, but they are a pain to clean and not really worth the bother; to me, at least. This is the perfect alternative for me.The coffee is rich and flavorful and clean up is a breeze! Just toss the filter and give the unit a quick rinse. All in all, a great product and a great price!

Easy, Cheap, and Works Great
Itâs super easy to use. My bf doesnât have a coffee maker and really no space for one, so I got this for when Iâm at his house. It took a few times to figure out exactly how many tablespoons of grounds to use to get it how I like it. I suggest starting with two heaping tablespoons. If you put too many grounds it can take awhile for the water to seep through. Pour your boiling water in a circular motion enough to wet all the grounds. Give it a sec to start to drip through and do it again. Keep going until you have the desired amount of coffee. Then toss the filter and rinse the cone. Quick and easy.

A gift; but I have one too!
I’m basing this rating on my own Melitta Pour-over Cone brewer and filters; the one that triggered the request for review was a stocking stuffer for m’lady, which is identical.Simply put, it’s wonderful! Easy to use, easy to clean (dishwasher top rack, or just rinse in hot water), and it makes great coffee. I have several manual and automatic coffee makers, I grind my own beans, and I make a lot of coffee; but sometimes all I want is a cup at a time. I suppose a Keurig would do this for me, but why bother when the Melitta system lets me tailor the blend and strength to exactly what I want? Heat water in a saucepan or kettle (or a Pyrex measuring cup in the microwave), then pour it over grounds in the filter. Toss the filter afterward, rinse the cone and you’re done. I’ve been using the Melitta for several years, and love it.A bonus: if you like cold-brew coffee as I do, and don’t6 want to bother with a specialized cold brew device, just make it in a screw-lid jar and filter it through the Melitta after 12 to 24 hours brewing in the fridge. I do this A LOT.Will m’lady find her new Melitta as useful as I do? Probably not, at least at first. But she lives alone and seldom has more than a couple of cups of coffee per day; after I told her about mine, she decided it might be better than using her drip-maker for such small batches.

It Gets the Job Done!
Pro:Yes, it makes a cup of coffee. Even though I haven’t used this extensively, I’ve used it enough to know what’s what. Yeah, I’m as important as Tom Selleck. Anyway, in my opinion, this is a good option for making just one cup of coffee without buying something that takes up so much counter space. There’s also the cost of a monster machine and product (pods). Why do that unless you have a lot of “1 cup moments” during the day. If you’re like me, where you want a cup every now and then, this will do the JOB!!Cons:Needs a smaller filter than a normal coffee pot.You’ll need something to boil water.Takes a few times to get my coffee to water ratio right.By the time it’s ready to drink, it’s almost cold……my biggest gripe!!! (need to microwave just to heat up)Bottom line: Only buy if you just want an occasional cup during the day….and own a microwave.

Great for me while recovering from an accident
I’m not standing around a lot these days, and I don’t spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I have been a French press user for years, and so I’m spoiled. This little one-cup filter cone will brew up my a.m. coffee in seconds flat. It’s so much better than instant, and you have to boil the water for that anyway. I got it in a nice, fire-engine red color that spruces up my kitchen. It came with a whole box of filters, too–unbleached or natural. I can’t get the coffee quite as strong as I can make it in my press, but it certainly is smooth-tasting. Ideal for a single person or a trip. If you absolutely have to have brewed coffee, and I do, this is certainly a convenient and cheap way to get it!

Low-cost and FABULOUS
We have tried so many things and everything would go wrong with so many coffee makers, devices, etc. So, I thought, let’s go with the absolute basic. Not only is it the easiest to work but the lowest cost. Here’s what we do:1. get coffee cup2. add powdered coffee creamer3. add sweet packet4. put coffee cone brewer on top of coffee cup5. squish open cone coffee filter and put inside cone brewer6. add ground coffee beans (we love French Roast Medium-Dark Roast Ground Coffee) – it’s best to find a little scooper that gives you the best strength YOU DESIRE for the size of your COFFEE CUP then use both every time for best and quickest results.7. POUR (read below) AND STIR — here’s your “STIR-TIP”; after cup has about 1/4 coffee, carefully lift cone brewer (can still be dripping) and stick in your spoon and stir your powdered creamer & powdered sweetner so is smooth and not “blobs”.7.5 Now pour your hot water from your kettle (we are in love with the clear electric kettle with the blue light right now) — this sounds like the “easy part” BUT IT IS NOT. My husband loves this part and takes his time to slowly wet all the grounds and pour in water bit-by-bit…smell is incredible and the BEST COFFEE WE HAVE EVER HAD! (My method is wet grounds with one or two BIG POURS….no, definitely not as good as my husbands’.) Take like a minute to pour water slowly while wetting all grounds and in about 1 minute you will have the best aromatic coffee ever. Best part? TAKES NO SPACE ON THAT LIMITED COUNTER SPACE!!!

La verdad que quede fascinado con este mÃ©todo, aun mÃ¡s que con el V60. Tiene algunas diferencias muy marcadas en cuanto al sabor, como la acidez bastante pronunciada. Es necesario tener una tetera de cuello de ganso, termometro y bascula, para sacar el mejor provecho de este metodo.

El empaque, el material y la marca se ve de calidad, los filtros se ven bien manufacturados y con papel que es mas grueso y de confecciÃ³n diferente a otras marcas de flitros, sin embargo, varios flitros ya estaban rotos en las uniones, los tuve que desechar, otros mas se rompieron al hacer el doblÃ©s para colocarlo en el dripper, y otros mas se rompieron al manipularlos en el dripper. Mala experiencia, costo alto y pobre desempeÃ±o.
