Know before you buy
This brewer is designed to be used with standard #2 cone-shaped coffee filters.
While porcelain offers excellent heat retention and a clean taste, it is fragile. If you plan to use it for rugged camping, ensure it is packed securely to prevent cracking or chipping.
The base is designed to fit most standard-sized mugs. However, it may not sit securely on very wide-rimmed oversized mugs or travel tumblers.
The brewer is dishwasher safe, making cleanup straightforward. You can also hand wash it with warm, soapy water after each use to prevent coffee oil buildup.
Yes, preheating the cone with a little hot water before adding your grounds helps maintain a consistent brewing temperature, which results in a better-tasting cup of coffee.
