Great coffee filter

By ROBERT BETHKE May 8, 2008

I used this on a multi-day backpacking trip into the SE Utah desert. It packed well in my backpack (flexible) and it seemed to be able to take a crushing without any damage. The screen is micro enough that I didn't get any coffee grains in my brew. I placed two TBSP of grounds into it and set it into my mug, with the wings resting perfectly on the edges of the mug, then poured the hot water into the mug thru the filter until full. Covered the filter with the little cap included and let er rest for a few minutes. Pulled the filter out and had a perfect cup of coffee. No messy paper filters, just grounds that I left out to dry during the day and then put into my trash later. All my friends loved it and I ended up making coffee for all of them over the subsequent days since this filter was so easy and quick to use. The only thing I can think of that would improve this filter is if the little black cap was somehow attached to the filter itself, this would create less of a chance of loosing the cap. I will probably rig it somehow with some kind of leash. Overall, I was very satisfied with this filter and will be using this for many years to come.
