OVALWARE Pour Over Coffee Filter | Reusable, Titanium Rose Gold

Really happy with this filter. It was a replacement for another double filter I had that clogged and had gotten really slow (probably used too fine a grind and didn’t keep up with weekly vinegar cleaning). This one gives me a pretty fast cup of coffee without compromising on flavor, and I prefer it over single layer filters that allow more sediment through. Just wish it had a little tab or was a little wider to fit my Chemex pour over, but it does fit the neck and the little rubber O-ring lets me grab it through the Chemex spout opening and not burn my fingers.

We've been using these filters for several years now, and will continue to use them. They filter well, clean-up easily, and make great tasting coffee. Usually after about 1.5 to 2 years of use, they filter noticeably slower and need to be replaced. Compare that with the cost of daily paper filters for a Chemex (what we use) and it's just a better deal.

We love this filter much better than the paper ones. It gives the coffee a clean taste where as the paper ones are let's the coffee grounds sit too long. Coffee can sometimes taste to acidic, muddy, and bitter. The construction of the filter is well made, great quality. It's smooth, no rough edges and the rubber rim at the top makes it easy to remove from the Chemex. It does sit slightly below the rim of the Chemex but I had no problem remove it. My husband has giant fingers and not issues there. The copper finish is beautiful. Highly recommended.

I decided to get this instead of ordering more paper filters. Even though this is more cost effective and brews faster, I find out it not as easy to clean out. Grant it you essentially dump the grounds and then rinse out the excess in the sink. I just find it as an extra step and not as easy as just lifting the paper filter out and tossing it in the trash. Plus the extra step in having to soak in vinegar to clean periodically I don’t know if it is worth it for me. Also keeping vinegar on hand is not something I normally stock. The cost of one box is $10.95 for 100 filters at World Market plus the discounts of buy online, pick up in store or the periodic sales of 20-25% off. Overall the cost of paper filters is more but the convenience kind of makes up for it. I will keep this filter but will go back to my paper filters. Overall this metal filter is nice but just not for me.

I wanted to leave this review, more than a year after purchase, because this product was an important part of my move towards eco-consciousness. I'm a heavy coffee drinker, so I would go through a mountain of filters every month. I'm also very particular about taste, so I ordered this with a lot of skepticism. Fortunately, my fears were absolutely unfounded. I've used this filter every day since that time, and it's yet to fail, yet to pour slower, and if there is a negative taste impact, I don't notice it. It's ultimately saved me quite a bit of money as well (I used square unbleached Chemex brand before and, well, you know.) Now that I've told you the positives, here are the negatives: Sometimes the rubber around the top comes off in washing (I handwash), but it's easy to snap back on. On a practical note, it's harder to know how to handle the grinds if you normally toss filters in the trash. I take a butter knife and scrape them, so it is an extra step. I recommend this product to everyone who uses a pour-over or Chemex. It's a lifechanger.

I've been using this filter in my Chemex 6 cup daily for over a month and it proves to be a good alternative to wasteful paper filters. While the final yield isn't quite as clean it's pretty darn close. Those having issues with clogging may need to evaluate their grind choice. I'm using a medium grind in a burr grinder and have noticed zero clogging issues. I could see, however, if one were using a blade grinder or perhaps a fine grind that it could. Get yourself a proper burr grinder - you should have one anyway. Overall happy and the copper version looks great with the wood of the Chemex.

Like probably many people, I want to "go green" and stop using paper filters for my V60 pour overs. This thing is great in concept, looks real real nice, and cleans pretty easily, but I'm not sure it's the replacement I'm looking for: With paper filters, a nice slow pour process typically takes 4 - 5 mins for all the water to pour through the grounds. With this filter, it's immediate, as fast as I can pour the water. I'm not sure I can taste the difference, but you coffee nerds will likely be unhappy with the extraction.

I purchased this product in December 2018 because I wanted a reusable option for my Chemex. I have used it daily for almost 2 years now and it's still working perfectly! I rinse it out immediately after using every time. After about 6 months, I noticed it wasn't dripping hardly at all and I was concerned. I scrubbed it heavily with a dish wand and some soap and it was good as new again. I like things that are well made and last a long time so I felt this product deserved a 5 star review. It was worth every penny. Highly, highly recommend if you're looking for a reusable filter option!

Après avoir acheté une Chemex 8 tasses, je me suis rendu compte que ma consommation de filtre me coûtait plutôt cher ! Du coup j'ai pris ce filtre en métal et c'est super pratique, ça rentre pile poil Je recommande vraiment, c'est solide, bien usiné propre

I was surprised at how well this worked. It drips through the metal filter faster than it does with a paper filter, but the extraction of coffee is much more full bodied. I had to play a bit with the grind size and quantity, but found the right mix after a couple of pots. This is using my own home roasted beans. Very little sentiment, in fact so little, I just drink the whole cup down. I am quite impressed with this filter and consider it a very good buy. The filter has been extremely easy to clean, I just use the kitchen sprayer and spray the outside with hot water for a minute or so, then rinse the inside with the same sprayer. I hold it up to the light to check the holes to make sure none are plugged and it is good to go, very nice and easy. Shipping was very fast, two days up from the US to Canada, excellent service. Good price as well, if I have any complaint it is that it does not rest on the top rim of my 10 cup Chemex but sits just inside the rim. And as a last comment I don't usually bother with reviews unless the product is exceptionally good, I feel this is.

This filter has definitely upped my WFH coffee game. Fits my Chemex, coffee tastes great, easy to clean, and looks good doing it! Would definitely recommend!

I bought this to reduce the paper waste from my coffee-making process however there are issues with filtering large quantities of coffee (50grams+), I didn't have this issue for 30grams but is prevalent at higher quantities. The other issue with filtering large quantities which then block the filter is that the filter heats up, the coffee steeps too much and you then get a really bad metal taste and smell in your coffee. This does dissipate when the coffee is poured into a cup and left for a few minutes. Overall the design and build quality is great and it is easy to clean, but using the filter does affect the taste and smell of the coffee. Most metal coffee drippers are copper and still require the use of a filter, I think this is because ultimately a bare metal filter affects the coffee negatively.

These are so so good I bought another one in case they never see light of day again.... There is something about the fine screen and the construction that makes coffee incredibly. We use dark French roast beans, grind them ourselves every morning. We like strong coffee. The color of the coffer is a clear golden hue and the flavor is beyond description. These are pricy but we think worth the price. Besides, no more paper filters. Incredibly good filters.
