My coffee keeps coming out weak. I'm not over boiling the water and pouring very slowly. What else can I be doing wrong?

The water has to be 200 deg. F. You have to wet all the grinds first and wait 30 sec. Then slowly pour from the center out in a spiral until a bulge is formed. Never pour past the grinds. Wait for the bulge to go down then slowly pour from the center out in a spiral again. Repeat until you have the amount of coffee you desire. Also you need to have the correct amount of grinds for the amount of cups you desire. It is recommended that before adding the grinds and beginning to completely wet the filter and then dumping the water to avoid any adverse taste from the filter material. It is also recommended to use a goose neck kettle for slow pour control.

I contacted Melitta regarding what plastic they use for this product. The answer is Polypropylene (PP), identification code "5" It can take boiling water and up to 340 Â°F (171 Â°C).

What size filters does it use and are they easy to find?

You can use any #2 or #4 cone filters, that you can get at the local grocery store. I bought #4 brew-rite from my local WalMart. The reason I bought #4 size is because it fits above the cone and allows you to put more coffee and water without worrying if it is going to run over. I did find that you also need to use boiling hot water if you want your coffee to come out with the right flavor/concistancy.

How many water filter holes does this have?

Don't believe what Great Cook wrote. I read an article on Harvard Health Publishing site, part of Harvard Medical School, that discusses a study published online April 22, 2020 by the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology that found filtering coffee by any means, paper or mesh — not just boiling ground coffee beans and drinking the water — was better for health, particularly for older people. Don't believe some random poster on Amazon that might wear tin foil hats and believe in a flat earth, do some research like a conscientious adult.

I love coffee brewed with a coffee cone, and this one is very good. The brewing coffee doesn't drip through too quickly or too slowly. I recommend a dash of cinnamon in the coffee grounds for a little extra flavour in your coffee, mmmm :).

This simple little device is the best coffee maker that money can buy. It's portable, easy to use, and, most importantly, easy to clean! You always get a fresh tasting cup. Using it couldn't be simpler. Put in a coffee filter, grind some fresh coffee (optional,) boil water, wait a few seconds for it to cool, and pour the water over. I like to wet the grinds first, wait a few seconds, then just fill the cone up to the top. It just about fills a 12 ounce mug, and you can top it off with a bit more water once its drained. Depending on how you boil the water, you have excellent coffee in 5 minutes. My favorite part is the simplicity of cleaning. A quick wipe down and rinse is all that's needed. No descaling, vinegar cycles, crevasses to get gunk out of, mesh filters to tangle with (why I prefer this brewer over a press pot) or even a carafe to clean (since you put this directly on top of your mug.) A dirty coffee machine can ruin perfectly good coffee; this brewer removes the headache of cleaning from the equation almost completely. On top of all that, it's cheap as dirt. You can get 10 of these for the price of the cheapest single serve Keurig machine. Coffee filters are literally a dime a dozen, and you can brew whatever coffee you want with this, from the cheapest Maxwell House to the loftiest Kona sourced from organic Hawaiian roasters. Did I mention it's made in the USA from durable BPA free plastic, and its simplicity means that it's relatively environmentally friendly, since you won't be throwing it in a landfill in a few years when it breaks? Did I mention that the only way for this brewer to malfunction or break is for you to accidentally run it over with your car? In closing, buy this! It's only five bucks, and it's awesome.
