Snow PeakCoffee Drip

The instructions are completely in Japanese with this writing taking up the whole back of the large cardboard the plastic bag containing this item is stapled to. There are also 5 pictures demonstrating it but the instructions under each photo is also in Japanese. I am sure there are tips and such on how to use this but since those who cannot read Japanese will never know.I use this every day several times a day. I use hemp CUSP Natural Product #6 cone coffee filter. They can be reused indefinitely. Very easy to clean and boiling water goes right through it very easily. CUSP hemp filters have sewn borders - something the other brands do not have. cuspnaturalproducts dot comeThis filter fits over almost any cup. I use in on Snow Peak titanium coffee cups of different sizes.People shouldn't complain about it being "large". This allows it to fit over larger coffee cups. Also, having a larger opening makes pouring water into it easier.

Snowpeak engineering, so fabulous design, brand name folds more flat, less bendy, worth the money! Take any cheap round paper filter, fold in half (half moon) then fold over about a third, now you have a cone that fits perfectly, throw out or compost when done. No need to even rinse in between uses although it’s stainless steel so dishwasher fine too. Also works with stainless screen, laser drilled or fabric reusable filters. Fits even larger mugs or former French Press containers whose fiddly bits have gone wonky. Everywhere I take this, people end up loving it. Make coffee as mild, strong, fast or slow as you want. Ideal for tiny, sustainable living.

I have tried several different methods of making coffee while camping. Percolators, Presses, Pulls, Powders, plenty of others. The simple pour-over has worked out the best every time. The Snow Peak is light-weight and it folds flat for easy transport. Works with standard filters. And I can make one cup or ten cups, each one hot and fresh when made.

First, I am a man, but I am in touch with my feminine side, and I had no problem using this product.I never like using the coffee makers in hotel rooms. I travel with a very old Bodum travel coffee kit that came with a small electric kettle and French press. I ditched the French press years ago and would wedge in a Melitta One-cup pour over. It was a squeeze.This folding model is just what the doctor ordered. Now, I can fit the kettle, Snow Peak Coffee Drip, beans, and my Hario Slim all in the bag.Perfect!

I ditch my coffee maker for this coz I'm trying to avoid plastic thing as much as possible. Yes you can use the coffee filter that we use in our coffee maker with this.don't need to buy those brown paper #.2. Also I used to have the metal paperless filter I don't like that 1 coz use a lot water to clean it.with this u don't need to wash just wipe it.hope this help you guys.enjoy your coffee.!

Filter is durable and easy to pack, but hard to use. It requires finesse to make a cup of coffee without breaking the filter, as the hole at the bottom is too wide, the coffee plus hot water creates pressure and readily breaks through. Might work with a mesh metal filter, but that is hard to pack...

I ordered this because of a review I came across in the mag Bon Appetit. I thought this would be a significant addition to my traveling accessories wherever the journey leads. It is light, foldable and still stable. Overall it is a very nice additionHowever, the instructions are written in an Asian language. Therefore I'm not sure if I use a number 2 or 4 cone filter, basket filter, all the above. After pondering the foreign diagram there seems to be a manufacturer recommendation regarding the filter. The other pause for consternation was my premise, purchasing this "American" offering vs the Chinese models at 1/2 the price. I've been to Snow Peak website and they are rather elitist so this non-English instruction card came as a surprise revelation. At this price point I was expecting English instructionsAnyway. It is what it is. Did brew a cup of coffee and folded it away after cleaning. Mission accomplished but I felt the product did fail to meet my 5 star criteria

I used to bring a big perculator camping, but for just two people this works way better. Packs down easily for backpacking and pretty durable. Slightly more money for Snow Peak name, but considering how obserdly priced most of this stuff is, this is a decent value.
