Big Things Come in Small Packages
Yeah, this coffee maker is small. But being the only coffee drinker in my house, it's not a problem! I've been using a french press or Chemex for awhile now. I really thought that the Chemex could not be beat until I brewed with this. It produces a seriously clean cup of coffee and has a reusable cloth filter. I still haven't figured out how long the cloth filter lasts, but I read on various websites that regularly boiling it could have it last from months to a whole year. I keep it in a ziplock bag in the refrigerator between uses. I've used it about a dozen times and the filter has pretty minimal staining.
I cannot stress how essential this (or even a Chemex) is for making iced coffee. This recipe is a must try with the Hario Woodneck. http://tmagazine.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/06/10/ristretto-on-the-rocks/
Beware! It DOES use the connoisseur's brewing ratio so if you're used to a weaker, watery cup of coffee you will be in for a caffeine shock. However, this...
Clean cup!
I have a vacuum brewer, a Chemex, a French Press and this little guy and I think this one makes the cleanest cup of all. Takes a few runs to get used to it, but it is a nice addition to my collection.
Wow! Amazing coffee
This setup makes an amazing cup of coffee. A little bit of an extra step but worth it.
Cons: A little expensive but if you like good coffee a worthwhile investment.
