Review on JoGo - Forest Green Portable Coffee Brewing Straw: Innovative Single Serve Brewing System for Coffee and Tea (Patent Pending) by Christine Langlois

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It actually works well

JoGo I found out more out of curiosity than anything. I wondered why Revain asked me to order what looked like drug paraphernalia, so I clicked on the product to find out. As a French press lover, I had to try it. Before placing an order, I did a quick internet search and it turned out that people in general really like JoGo. I, like others, was concerned that the coffee might be over-extracted. I also wasn't sure if I would enjoy drinking coffee through a straw. I'm happy to report that I like drinking coffee through a straw because the cup lasts a lot longer than sipping from it, and the coffee doesn't over-extract even though it stays at the bottom of my cup forever. i drink slowly Unlike another reviewer who thought it was easy to burn my tongue with a straw, I find it easier to control my intake and therefore not burn myself, and instructions on how to control my intake are actually included with JoGo . Although the ground coffee doesn't go through the filter, the coffee feels a little "sluggish," but it feels like a French press. It could also be because the only coffee I currently have is pre-ground and too fine to use with JoGo (but still tastes pretty good, although the beans aren't anything special). I'm looking forward to fresh, high-quality coarse beans as suggested. It's strange when all the earth is at the bottom of the cup. When I first used it I didn't think to consider the size of the mug for the extra space the area would take up. With 2 heaping tablespoons of ground coffee and 10 ounces of water, my 12 ounce mug was almost too full to add cream, so be careful what size mug you use. JoGo comes with a cleaning brush, small drawstring pouch and instructions. All in all, an unnecessary but fun gadget for coffee lovers.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Weak set
