Ooh, i made a post about a present i got that has
completely changed how i have my coffee.
The reasons being :
- it makes the best tasting fresh coffee
- its conventient, quick, minimal clean up and practically no rubbish besides the coffee grinds.
Nothing has to live on your bench . So if you have a small kitchen - no bench space is needed.
Its this:
It comes with a lid/filter stand ...mug....and fliter.
This shows⬇️ how it all sits when you use it...and looks when packed away .
It makes 'pour' or drip coffee, even tho it's supposed to be used for tea.
If you have a grinder, set it on a little coarse so you dont get any 'silt' in the bottom.
Ive found the fresh pour method makes
really smooth coffee - it completely removes any bitterness that comes from brewing .
Since ive had this i havent used my French press or moka pot .
Its super easy to clean , packs away with the other cups . And the grounds get scattered into the farden or go in the green waste bin.
There are many differnt types/shapes out there .
(Usually labeled as tea mugs ....but still great for coffee.)
I use it for fresh teas, adding fresh chilli to a hot chocolate, ...it also means i can experiment with adding stuff to my coffee now
I love it so much i barely use any other cup in my cupboard .
There is also this : ( i nearly ordered it, then i got my mug)

Fresh pour coffees are super quick to make.(Well this one is....amd its faster than a drip one )
No brewing, no pods, no rubbish, no special contraption .
If you like super smooth coffee, id reccomend a course grind....or add a filter paper .
(Im not that picky really).
I cant tell you
how much i love what this cup has done for my enjoyment of coffee,
Excrpt to say - that after 30+ years of trying different methods....this is (i think), thr
absolute best And ive been thru the wringer of pods, presses, espresso and moka pots, blah blah blah .
This is now my baby 🤗
Edit:( for like the 6th time...i keep adding stuff🙄😏)
It takes as long as an instant coffee to make .
The only thing that you have to be careful of is that you pour the hot (boiling if thats all you got ...of prefably 80-90⁰ C water) over the grounds, slowly so they all get wet. (You dont want any floating to the top).
Then you lift out the filter🤷
If your grounds are fine you have to wait like half a minute for it to drain. If your grind is courser - there's no wait, it drains instantly .
