Stanley The Perfect-Brew Pour Over

Durable as always, solid build. I am a fan of Stanley, and this did not disappoint. Make sure to pour water slowly and evenly to minimize coffee grinds to pass thru the filter.

I bought this pretty much ONLY to use when I’m making coffee in my Stanley travel mug, as it fits the lid perfectly and helps prevent heat loss by being able to brew directly into the carry mug. I also use a paper filter in this brewer for a cleaner taste, but it’s quite annoying and finicky to do as it’s not designed to be used with anything other than the include metal filter which feels like a massive oversight. Coffee brewed through a metal filter will be drinkable, but noticeable grittier, more full bodied, and bitter than a paper filtered coffee and it would make sense to design a product that could be used either with paper filters OR with the included metal filter, and unfortunately this product, while convenient, missed the mark in many areas and is now relegated to very specific use cases in my kitchen

The Keurig was on its last legs and My wife needed a simpler way to brew coffee. So I bought her a pour over and taught her how to use it. I created a monster…

This is a good option for days I will have only 1 cup of Joe. I have had pour overs at local coffee houses and generally found them very good. This is an inexpensive option to make my own pour overs. Without a paper filter the cleanup takes a few more minutes.

Works great, a little pricey but serves the purpose well.
