Swissgold KF300 1 Cup Pour Over Coffee Maker

My previous place of employment supplied us with free coffee, but at my current job, that's not the case.For awhile I tried just using instant coffee, but it just didn't taste right. Now I use ground coffee, with this awesome brewer, and I will never go back. I use 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per cup. Fortunately there is a hot water dispenser near my desk, which is just barely hot enough to do the job.I couldn't imagine the hassle of dealing with filters and such, it's nice that I don't have to. You only have to empty out the used coffee from it into a trash, before using it again.It only fits snugly on top of standard coffee mugs. You can use coffee mugs that are slightly bigger, they just won't sit on top as neatly. If your mug's mouth is much wider than usual, you'll probably end up using a different mug for this filter.Just remember this particular brewer is for a standard cup of coffee, not your ultra-gulp-monster-mouth-coffee-tank-filler, and you should be alright.

I've had this for years and I use it several times a day. It brews better coffee than you can buy in almost any shop - provided, of course, that you use good coffee. Buy a grinder if you do not already own one.

Well constructed and filter screen is so small it clogs quickly. Still must use paper filter to make it work or use course ground coffee.

Swissgold is best known for their 24K gold permanent filters. I use one in by Bunn drip brewer because unlike paper filters the gold filter does not impair any filter taste. I purchased the Swissgold KF 300 to use when I just want a single cup but to tell you the truth it makes a better cup of coffee then my Bunn drip brewer. The reason for this is because coffee should be brewed at a temperature between 200 & 205 degrees. My Bunn brewer unfortunately only reaches a temperature of 190.You heat the water on the stove until boiling point take it off the burner and let it set for 30 seconds or so to let the temperature drop a little and then pour it into the KF300, it is as simple as that. The only negative thing I can say about the KF 300 is I wish it brewed a little more coffee at a time. When you fill up the reservoir it holds about 8 oz. I cheat a little and add a little more water when the level drops because I use a 12 oz mug. If you want a single great cup of coffee I highly recommend this brewer.

I go and eat out often and want a strong cup of coffee. The swiss gold comes to the rescue. I ask a waitress for coffee mug, coffee (I bring a baggie full) and hot water. Presto great cup coffee to enjoy, just right.

I bought one for my mom and one for me. Mkes amazing coffee and espresso as well. Most filters, especially those for single cups of coffee, usually aren't made for espresso. This one is exceptionally wonderful! Highly recommend!

I love this coffee maker. It's great for making only 1 cup. I used to have one that required filters which was a constant added cost. I turned my friends on to this too and they all love it.

I brewed my first cup of coffee with the Swissgold manual coffee maker in the afternoon at work -- so as not to make a whole 12 cup pot with the electric coffeemaker. It smelled so good that people at work asked if I used a special home made batch. In fact I just used regular Pete's Coffee. It tastes really really good, in fact it tastes amazingly good. I may end up never using the electric coffee maker again.
