Barista Warrior Reusable Coffee Filter - Stainless Steel Pour Over Dripper, Compatible for Chemex, Hario V60 & Drippers, Easy to Clean Flavorful Brew Fine Mesh Coffee Filter - Copper

I'm a pretty hardcore coffee drinker, I use every brewing method depending on what mood I'm in. I find the pour over method to be the fastest, most convenient and controllable other then a coffee machine; no self respecting coffee connoisseur uses a auto coffee machine unless its the only thing available but I digress. I'm a staunch researcher when I'm in the market for a particular item, I research for days even weeks to make sure I purchase the best product for my needs. If your looking for a filter you can use repeatedly and reliably with consistent results without sacrificing quality this filter is for you. The filter your using is just as important as every other component when it comes to brewing the perfect cup of coffee. I use the Chemex double wall coffee pot and this filter was designed to function with this kind of coffee pot, it fits perfectly. I use a burr grinder on medium fine setting and I dump the coffee in the filter leaving the coffee in a pile. I know its tempting to shake the filter to level off the pile but this is a mistake, just leave the coffee in a pile. Get your coffee at the perfect temperature depending on roast I use 203 degrees for medium roast and start to slowly pour the water directly in the center of the pile eroding a small hole all the way down. Keep a steady stream of water in that same spot and you'll notice the coffee grounds in the center start to roll towards the outside. making sure to keep a steady stream of water in the center the water level in the filter will begin to rise brewing the rest of the coffee. Towards the end of the pour move the stream of water all around the top of the coffee until you run out of water or when desired amount of coffee is brewed. I've been brewing pour over coffee this way since I the day learned from a professional barista and it by far brews the best pot of coffee. This filter is the best filter on the market when it comes to reusable coffee filters, leaves absolutely no flavor in the coffee and almost no fine coffee particulates, Its a great filter you wont regret your purchase. to clean the filter is as easy as just running the filter under the sink and placing it upside down to dry and you're done.

I was hesitant on purchasing this reusable filter as most of them say they keep out coffee grounds, but I usually end up with some in the bottom of the pot. This one is not the case. I was first able to use it this week and the first pour over came out with no grounds. I assumed that maybe I missed them and the were in the bottom. So I used it again the next day and same result. Third time, same result. Final conclusion, this is great quality, engineered to do what it says it will, and keeps the grounds out without slowing down the brew speed.

I honestly think it's the best way to brew coffee. I've been using mine for about 3 years. Brewed countless cups at home, and it's been with me all round the world! Just chuck this in your bag and you have yourself a way to make good coffee. Durable and easy to clean, mine finally broke after years mostly because of my rough use. Fits every cone brewer I've tried, but honestly works without one as well, just on top of a large mug.

Bought this three years ago and still use it everyday. After awhile it was running slower which is to be expected but the BEST way I've found to clean it is with one of those melamine sponges. Like the Magic Eraser. Just moisten it, squeeze it out and wipe and scrub the filter. Amazing the stain that comes off and the filter was running like new again. These sponges will also remove stains from coffee mugs and tea pots as well as the bottom of pans, stainless refrigerators and more. I don't think there is anything harmful in them since there aren't any chemicals but I'm sure we'll find out there is later. In the meantime, try it for your filter and see how easy it cleans.

I went online to purchase paper filters for my Chemex, and then saw this product and decided to give it a whirl. Below are pros and cons: Pros: - Filter works very well. I used on two successive mornings and coffee was delicious. - Good quality. Fits perfectly into the Chemex. Also, I appreciated the rubber gasket that goes along the top of the cone; this creates a good seal so if you happen to pour too much water into the filter, the grounds won't seep into the Chemex. Cons: - Usability. I didn't like the procedure. Think of it this way: You pour the very hot water through the filter; after all the water is poured you're ready to pour a cup of coffee, so you remove the filter. It doesn't drip much because the filter holes are very fine, however there are still wet grounds in there. So you turn it over to dump them out (I put them into a plastic receptacle and then do a weekly dump into the compost pile), but the metal part of the cone where you have to hold it is very hot (obviously because you just poured 210 degree water through there). You manage this, but still about 20% of the grounds are sticking onto the filter, which requires you to manually wipe them out with a paper towel or something. And the cone is still hot. After wiping them out there's still about 5% of the grounds in there, mostly stuck in the very bottom of the cone. So your last recourse is to rinse it into the sink. This allows grounds to go into the drain; I wipe as much as I can out of the sink, but inevitably some slip into the drain, and coffee grounds and drains are not a good match. As long as you're in the sink, you may as well wash the filter with soap, etc. Meanwhile, back at the Chemex, some heat loss has occurred with the coffee. This was my experience anyway. Maybe there is a better "workflow" for this, but I just found it infinitely easier to remove and discard the paper filter with grounds. - Cleaning and longevity. Some reviews I read mentioned that they had issues with the filter clogging. Indeed, in the packaging there are actually instructions on how to clean, and what to do if it clogs. Putting in dishwasher, soaking in vinegar, etc. Nothing that's a big deal. But the fact that they addressed this in the packaging gives credibility to the reviews that cite this as an issue. And so the question then becomes, do you want to spend time maintaining a filter. Neutral: - Price is still probably a little steep, but it should pay for itself after a year (or less depending on how much you brew) of use. Conclusion: I'm rating this 4 stars because I don't think there's anything wrong with the product. It does what it says it will do, and it seems to do it well, which is to serve as a substitute for paper filters. However I decided to return due to the "usability" issue described above. My mornings are already a multitasking bonanza with making breakfast, packing lunches, feeding the dog, etc and I just don't need to add anything else to the morning workflow. If this doesn't describe you though then it might be a good fit.

TL;DR: It filters "sludge", trade off is speed. One week of use so far. My set up is a burr grinder, kettle with a goose neck spout, and the $18 pour over carafe featured when you search "4 cup coffee pour over". The filter that came with the carafe is cheap and left grain and powdered coffee into the brew. I changed the grind size for larger and smaller to see if it would get better and nothing. A little research brought me to this filter. It's slower (takes about 2~3 minutes for 4 cups), but filters clean and smooth coffee. I'm currently working through a cheap bag of beans and it tastes better than most coffee shops. Can't wait to see what it does with quality coffee beans and if it slows down more after a few weeks of use.

I bought this back in 2019 and now in 2025, it is still working well and going strong. It is easy to bend so just be careful/gentle when cleaning it, but if you take care of it, it will definitely last you many years. I highly recommend this product! Added details: I used this to make the coffee for iced lattes. I have tried many types of coffee brands and beans (both whole beans ground with my Virtuoso as well as coffee bought already ground) and I have found that Death Wish Coffee Co. beans (medium) works best for me and my preferred taste profile. I use a steel goose neck kettle on a stove top to bring water to a boil and don't get down to actually measuring the temperature like some on here have said (people actually do that? lol). Then, I pour into a cup of ice and add my favorite creamer/flavors. Everyone has their own methods and taste profiles but this is what I do.

Where is the information regarding the material that lines the interior of this "Stainless Steel Pour Over Dripper"? I was shocked this morning while cleaning the filter to discover this material and couldn't find any reference to it on the product specs. What is it? Customers who buy a stainless steel filter are obviously concerned about the materials they use that come into contact with heat. This is a large oversight.

El filtro funciona muy bien. Filtra unos 30g de cafe con 500ml de agua en unos dos minutos y medio, mas o menos. lo compre para reemplazar uno de tela que se tapo y ya no filtraba nada y no encontre manera de limpiarlo. Este en el manual indica que hay que lavarlo cada cierto tiempo con vinagre y agua, y hervirlo. Pero al cabo de unos meses de uso ni eso bastó y el filtro ya no funcionaba, y el agua no pasaba por el filtro, basicamente dejandolo inoperante. Buscando online, encontré que los filtros pour-over de metal pueden llegar a taparse por la grasa del cafe que taponea los micro-hoyitos del filtro. (Cómo el vinagre no corta dicha grasa, me supera). Se soluciona con simplemente poner el filtro sobre la flama de la estufa por dos minutos aprox. (manipulandolo con unas pinzas de metal o algo que no se caliente) para que dicha grasa se queme o se derrita o que se yo. El filtro puede soltar humo y es normal. Pasado esto, dejandolo enfriar, y enjuagandolo para quitarle el hollín, queda como nuevo. Temía que tuviera que tirar/reciclar este filtro, pero volvió a la vida 🙏 Ojala mencionaran este problema y su solucion en el manual.

Bought to go with my Bodum pour over coffee pot and this was so worth it. The metal filter that came with it was rubbish and left grit in my coffee even on a course grind, this on the other hand is amazing and I even tested how fine I could grind the beans and still have a grit free coffee and was very happy with the results. Best purchase I have made for a while.

Well made and helps make an excellent slow pour. This filter is designed to fit the Hario V60 No 2 ceramic cone but could easily fit on top of your jug. Empty the filter immediately after use, and rinse with hot water. I would strongly suggest giving the filter a proper cleaning with Urnex Cafiza once a week - to prevent clogging from a build up from coffee oils. Cafiza Cleaning Powder is available at major coffee suppliers, and Amazon. 6g per 1 litre hot water and soak for 30 minutes.

Contrary to some others’ reviews, I find this filter very easy to keep clean. I always rinse it out immediately after the coffee is brewed, before I sit down to drink it. I have never encountered any grounds stuck in the filter after running hot water through and sometimes, not always, using a brush. The filter drips through much faster than when I used Hario V60 papers, which take for ever. My coffee is brewed quickly so good and hot, and with excellent flavour. 5 stars to this lroduct

It was a gift, but I heard it was a great.
