  I have it in a coffee shop. It makes very good French coffee but breaks relatively easily; this is the fourth one I am buying

  Super dripper! Very easy to use, excellent result! For 1-2 people (maybe even 3). No. 4 filters.

  Very good product. Good plastic, which does not retain odors. It immediately shows that it is not cheap. The ability to transfer it from one cup to another without spilling the coffee is useful. The only downside is its legs, which make it difficult to use in very wide cups.

  This review is about the colour: Transparent

  I have been using it for about 2 months and I am quite satisfied. You can make a perfect cup of coffee in 3 minutes, and the coffee will have the same taste every time (if you follow the same process and methodology). Theoretically, it can hold up to 500ml of water, but with this amount, it fills up to the top and it is difficult to stir the coffee without making a mess. Personally, I use 300ml and with 15-16gr of coffee, I get about 260ml of coffee (one cup). Essentially, its function is based on the valve it has at the bottom, and when you place it on top of a cup, it empties the coffee into the cup (similarly to the traditional French press where you need to have the carafe underneath for the coffee to "run"). The "recipe" and method I use come from a video by James Hoffmann (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpOdennxP24&t=343s). You add 300ml of boiling water and 15-16gr of coffee, stir it to wet all the coffee, wait for 2 minutes, and then "break" the crust that forms on the surface with a spoon and let the coffee settle at the bottom (for about 10 seconds). Finally, you place it on top of a cup and in 1 minute, the coffee has emptied into your cup. Specifically, if you add the water first and then the coffee, the time it takes to empty into the cup is shorter than if you added the coffee first and then the water.

  The only negatives I can think of are that you only make up to one cup of 260ml each time, but there are larger capacity options available, so choose the appropriate size for you. But still, the time is 3 minutes, so in moments when I wanted two cups, I could make them one by one in less time than my electric coffee maker requires.

  Very good invention! Essentially, it is like the French Press but with a filter (No4) to keep the coffee grounds, for those who have high cholesterol ;) Capacity is 500ml. Also, you can use it as a Dripper if you want (pour over). You place it directly on top of the cup, so when you open the valve it has at the bottom, the coffee flows directly, but be aware that it flows quite fast. The amount of coffee you put, the water temperature, and the time depend on the coffee, its grinding, its cutting, and each person's taste, of course. Here you experiment on your own. For example, I, who drink my coffee plain and consume 1-1.5 liters per day, do not want it too strong. So, after rinsing the filter with boiling water to remove the "paper taste," I put 25g (instead of 30) in 500ml of water at 75-80 degrees (instead of 90-95) for 2-2:30 minutes (instead of 3-4), and it turns out the way I want it. So far, I have had it for about a year and only the rubber bands on the valve at the bottom have changed color, and be careful when washing and removing it, when repositioning it again. The first time, I didn't notice the notches it had and I put it crooked and got stuck. Also, don't forget to press to fit the rubber band on the valve well, because I made a mistake at the beginning... as soon as I pour the water, it starts to flow from below and the coffee counter gets filled!

  I am reevaluating my rating from 5 to 3 because after 1 year of use, the plastic valve broke from below without any mishandling. For the money, I expected better plastic quality. It's a shame because otherwise it served me very well!
