Bodum 17oz Pour Over Coffee Maker, High-Heat Borosilicate Glass with Reusable Stainless Steel Filter and Cork Grip - Made in Portugal

It's a brilliant size to keep in the office. The filter and the pot is easy to clean, great value for money. Seems to be made out of sturdy glass, no issues encountered so far.

So there is a trick to how to make good coffee using this pour over filter coffee pot. And it’s quite simple. You put the coffee grounds in the top filter. Then you press it down. Gently though. You don’t wanna break the thing. Then when the coffee grounds are likely compacted start pouring boiled water directly over the top of the coffee grounds very slowly. You’ll see the coffee grounds soak up the water and should now form a foam over the top of the grounds you can start to pour the boiled water faster into the filter now and this will slowly drip through to the coffee pot below. Once you’ve done this let it settle for about a minute then pour out and enjoy the coffee. for those that I found it produces weak coffee this is probably because you’re pouring the boiled water of a very loose coffee grounds far too quickly. So you’re ending up drinking basically hot water tinged with a taste of coffee. Take your time! I mean it. It might take you nearly a whole minute to pour the water into the filter. Or longer. It’s worth it don’t rush. Enjoy.

I am very happy with this coffee maker, using it every day.A key design element was the washable/re-usable filter. In practice though the mesh is not fine enough, and the coffee is distinctly cloudy as a result. This is easily remedied by placing a regular paper filter inside or below (as you prefer) the plastic one supplied. This has the added benefit of keeping the hot water on the coffee for a little longer, for a stronger/richer brew.Otherwise, the size is great for one big mug (500ml), or two regular cups.Looks good & handles nicely. Cleaning is easy enough.- - -Bought at £19.20, with free Prime delivery.Item was delivered on-time, as-described, and suitably packaged.

Stunning aesthic and design. Puts beauty at the centre of the morning ritual. As your hands grasp the glass coffee carafe, one almost feels a sense of brewing coffee science. I sadly flipped mine out of the window as a tea plate sized spider camouflaged on the cork jacket scared the living daylights out of me. I truly felt the absense of this product in my life more than than some men I have loved and lost.

Good Quality

Just big enough to get 2 cups of coffee out of. Easily cleaned and good quality. It also looks quite stylish!

Though advertising says it doesn't need filter, you may be interested in purchasing some. If you don't use a paper filter, some of your ground coffee will flow through the metal sieve. However, it is ease to prepare your coffee, easy to clean and pretty elegant if you keep it beside your working station (as I do).

Overall, Bodum make excellent filter coffee products, and up to a point, this is no exception. The biggest fault with this 1/2 litre jug is the size of the filter. Like most people ( I suspect), I don't own a slow pour kettle, that means you have to pour the water onto the coffee grounds in three or four stages or it will overflow. Even gentle water pouring from an ordinary kettle won't alleviate this small problem.The neck of the jug is also smaller than the larger Bodum jug, and therefore less easy to clean.If you like filter coffee though, & all you want is a single mug, this is a great little jug that suits it's purpose well.
