Review on ☕️ Melitta Gourmet Coffeemaker with Porcelain Carafe: Convenient Pack of 1 for Premium Brewing by David Bone

I received a white ceramic Melitta pouring filter with a white ceramic jug - what a stroke of luck! I wish I had known that decades ago. It's so easy, quick and easy to make coffee without a machine (literally just pour hot water over it and you're done) and it tastes WAY BETTER. I'm so sick of the coffee makers you pay $200 and last a few years before the tube bursts and they start leaking across the counter. Do you know how long this ceramic filter and jug will last? Forever and ever! And I make delicious coffee in about three minutes. It turns out that this is the original technology of filter coffee. I don't know how the industry convinced us that pouring hot water over coffee grounds for two minutes is so hard that we need an ephemeral machine to do it for us, and machines are so bad at it. When pouring, simply twist the teapot spout a little and your coffee will come out just fantastic. I don't know why coffee machines can't do this properly, but they just can't. I had no idea, but I absolutely love this Melitta ceramic coffee maker. It's also nice that I can toss the coffee grounds in a regular supermarket coffee filter - it seems so much easier than one of those hipster chemistry coffee pouring kits with steel filters and totally unnecessary analytical scales and specialized bells and whistles. Hipsters claim that the paper filter absorbs oils. Yes, I'm sure it's not a lot, but are you really losing enough oil from a six-cup pot to notice or care? I doubt it. The pot is a bit smaller than one of those big ten-cup coffee pots that come with full-size coffee makers, but with this smaller 6-cup size, I had to fill the filter halfway with ground coffee to get decent. strong coffee and I wouldn't recommend filling it above this level for the convenience of pouring and flowing water. In other words, the full size of this 32-ounce, six-cup pitcher is the maximum amount of coffee I can brew in one batch from a filter this size without my coffee coming out weak or my filter overflowing! Let the Germans remind me how to keep things simple and efficient! If relevant, our family has long endured French presses, cold brews, cheap $20 coffeemakers, and expensive $200 coffeemakers. I buy fresh beans from my local roaster and grind them in an inexpensive ($30 store bought) medium sized coffee grinder for drip or pull roasting. If asked, I'd say I prefer delicate floral foods like Indonesian beans, but we actually walk a lot and try lots of different beans and roasts, and I appreciate them all. I've been thinking about getting an electric swan neck kettle. use it, but then I remember that no, I don't need it - just keep it. Our regular old kettle on the stove works great.
