Stelton Nohr Coffee Filter

No, the Nohr dripper is designed as a permanent, reusable alternative to paper filters. Its fine stainless steel mesh is engineered to hold the coffee grounds while allowing oils and flavors to pass through into your cup.

The Nohr dripper is specifically designed to integrate with the Nohr jug. While it may physically sit on other vessels, we recommend using it with the intended carafe to ensure a secure fit and proper stability during brewing.

Because the stainless steel mesh allows natural coffee oils to pass through—which paper filters typically absorb—you can expect a richer, more full-bodied cup. It provides a cleaner extraction than a French press but a heavier mouthfeel than a standard paper-filtered pour-over.

We recommend hand washing the filter with warm water and mild soap after each use. To prevent oil buildup and ensure consistent extraction over time, give it a thorough rinse or a gentle scrub with a soft brush.

The mesh is fine enough to filter out most sediment, but it performs best with a medium-coarse grind similar to what you would use for a standard drip coffee maker. Extremely fine, espresso-style grinds may pass through the mesh or cause the filter to clog.
