The cloth filter allows more of the coffee's natural oils and fine particles to pass through into your cup, resulting in a richer, fuller body and a cleaner flavor profile than paper filters. It eliminates the papery aftertaste often found in standard drip brewing.

It requires a bit more attention than paper filters. After each use, you must rinse the cloth thoroughly with hot water to remove all coffee oils and grounds, then store it in a container of clean water in the refrigerator to prevent it from drying out or developing off-flavors.

We recommend a medium-fine grind for this brewer. This consistency helps balance the extraction rate, ensuring you get a clean cup without clogging the cloth filter.

No, the glass carafe is not dishwasher safe. You should hand wash it gently with warm water and mild soap, being careful to remove the wooden collar and leather strap before cleaning.

With proper care and regular cleaning, a single cloth filter can last for several months. You will know it is time to replace it when the cloth becomes heavily stained, starts to retain old coffee flavors, or the flow rate slows down significantly.

The wooden collar is designed to act as a heat-resistant handle, so it remains cool to the touch while you pour. It provides a secure, comfortable grip even when the glass carafe is filled with hot coffee.
