SwissGold One Cup Coffee Filter - Reusable Coffee Dripper - No Coffee Filter Paper Required - KF300

Having done battle with the best lever espresso machine (The Londinium) for two years, I decided that enough was enough and I bought one of these filter units.I have three now, two at home and one at my son's house in Anglesey. I also have a multi-cup filter that sits over a glass jug, for making larger quantities, but I rarely use that.The system is such that I have found that a bigger dose of coffee is required than one would use for an espresso machine which is 7 grams for a single, and 14 grams for a double.To get the strength that I like. I use somewhere around 20 grams of beans, for a half pint porcelain mug, that I sourced from Japan (Hasami). They have three of these, unglazed, semi glazed and fully glazed. My favourite is the semi glazed version, it feels great in the hand.I buy freshly roasted beans from Allpress, but one could roast them oneself for extra freshness. My Allpress beans have a "roasted on" date rather than a "use by" date as found in supermarkets. There are numerous roasters in the UK, and through experimentation you can find a roaster that you like, or one can shift around endlessly, both will work... You takes your choice. My coffee is never more than two weeks post roast, and that is on the day that a new batch arrives.Allpress might be considered expensive to some, but I am happy, so I don't mess. around too much. The important thing is to have a good grinder that does not retain grinds that will get dumped into the next cup of java and mar the flavour. Another very consistent roaster is Roundhill.One of the greatest inventions of recent years is the Niche grinder which cleverly angles the grinder so that all of the ground coffee arrives into your chosen receptacle, whether that be an espresso handle, a filter (of some sort) or even a French pot, or "Bialetti" style unit... etc. etc... Whatever, there is no retention.My point is that the best coffee is freshly ground, since much of the flavour is bound up inside the bean, however it was roasted. even so. age is still your enemy. Allpress employ air roasters, which eliminate the burnt flavour that is prevalent in many supermarket coffees.I highly recommend the Swissgold filters, they are so simple to use, and they last for ever, cleaning is a doddle, and the coffee is consistent.

90mm diameter so fits standard UK kitchen mugs up to a "cake in a mug" sized mug (although you'd need to add more water to the coffee maker part way through to fill it). So it'll also fit your average a thermal cup (the ones that usually come with a sealable lid for travel).That was the information I really needed when purchasing this, but I took a punt it would fit my favourite coffee cup and it paid off: this is a super little coffee maker.Pros:Small, light - takes up about as much space in the cupboard as a standard mug.Fantastically easy and less messy to clean than a cafe tiere press.Easy to use: one scoop, one fill of 90c water = one coffee precisely.Coffee: tastes good! Honestly it might be my imagination but I think it actually makes better tasting coffee than my coffee press, although that's pretty marginal and of course subjective. Importantly: no bits! I can drink those last few ml of my cup of Joe without choking on grounds for the next hour, amazing I've never had a coffee press manage that!Cons:One cup at a time, coffee fiends! This is a personal coffee maker, sorry!Bits do not clip together they just sit on top of each other. So if travelling with it would recommend a bit of black electrical tape just over one edge at the top and that'll hold it together.

This works quite well as a pour over filter, should you require this type of coffee during the say. It reminds me of the old Rombouts coffee that you used to get in motorway style cafe stop. Still working on getting the grind size right for the filter and the quantity of coffee for the pleasant taste. It fits a standard mug very well and doesn't fall off. you don't need any paper filters as it a reuseable device and you just wash it out after use.

Was hankering after one of these for a while as I love the single use Robouts coffee but dislike the plastic waste. Thought the price was a bit steep, and had seen cheaper pour overs but this one had the best reviews. I bought it eventually with a birthday voucher & it's really good. Filters through much quicker than the Rombouts but the flavour is all there, easy to use, easy to store, easy to clean. Couple of tips would be to run boiling water through the empty filter over your cup to preheat both, and then to pour about a tablespoon of hot water over the coffee grounds and wait for them to swell a little bit (30-60 secs) before pouring over the remaining hot water.Fits all my cups without any leaks. Very useful.

I bought the One Cup Coffee Filter for my mum to keep at work, and it’s perfect for making a quick cup of her favorite ground coffee. She loves that it's reusable, so no need for filter paper. It’s easy to use, and the coffee tastes great every time. It’s a simple but effective solution for a quick caffeine fix without the hassle. Definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a convenient, eco-friendly coffee maker!

I love this product, very easy to use.My only remark is that the coffee gets filtered very fast (it comes down as you pour the hot water in it) and this results in it being a bit weak.Apart from that, I’m very happy that I can finally enjoy real coffee in the office without breaking the bank 😊

I’ve had similar filters to these before which worked really well. These however, filter through too quickly so you don’t get the full-bodied flavour you want for filter coffee.
