coffee and tea dripper

I have used mellita brown filters for years, and always thought they were the best-until now! For the same price, these are clearly better, at least when used with a Hario filter holder. The latter are more expensive than the plastic mellita holders, but are made from ceramic, glass or resin(chapest) and are quite beautiful in both form and function. The filters fit these perfectly. I read about these filters in The New York Times, in a piece on the best coffee bars in town.
The filters are hard to find in shops, so i ordered them from Amazon. I brew one cup at a time, wet the grounds and wait about 30 seconds (for the coffee to "bloom" ie, release oils and gasses), and then add water slowly ih a spiral pattern to wet the grounds evenly. This is simpler than it sounds and takes about 2 minutes. The Hario instructions say to pour the water directiy down the center, but the spiral method makesa richer cup. Also remember to pour hot water through the filter, in the holder, first... Read more

The "nose" of this filter prevents breakage, and it works on the V60. Expensive, but purpose-built, marvelous coffee EVERYTIME...

These are great filters which I use in my Hario ceramic coffee dripper. They fit nicely and don't cave in like some of the cheaper brands you get. The only gripe I have about them here on Amazon is the price. At a price of over $12 per 100 pack, that's about double what you pay for them at other online places that sell coffee stuff (e.g., SCG).
