Es de las mejores cafeteras. El filtro es de tela, y si lo cuidas es duradero. La jarra es buenísima.

So in LOVE with this coffee drip pot! I have never had coffee as rich and robust as I've had from this pot. I had the pleasure of visiting Costa Rica a few weeks ago and I bought a TON of coffee for a very cheap price. Since Ticans use hand-dripped brewing systems traditionally, I HAD to buy one. The ones in CR are made out of wood and require the drip to be exposed to air prior to hitting the cup or pot, ergo its cloth filter is suspended in the air.However, I wasn't totally sold on this method. I was worried that it might splash more than I would care to clean up, therefore, I didn't end up buying a drip pot there in CR. But as soon as I was in the States, I got on Amazon and looked for a great product to substitute the traditional CR method. I saw several, but I ultimately a chose the Hario. It has been a godsend and I will never go back to modern coffee systems again! Nope. I'm sold for good. I don't think it'd be possible to top the coffee that comes out of the Hario. It's so simple and it tastes divine! I thought that my Keurig was great since I could brew one cup at a time and I could chose whatever coffee I wanted easily. However, I put the Keurig in the garage about a week into using my Hario, because it became pointless to have it taking up space on the counter. This tiny beauty takes only a small space in my kitchen and frees up the counter for my important tasks.My only suggestion for purchasers is that you need to should let your hot water sit for a small amount of time before beginning your pour. I wait about 2-3 minutes after I take the kettle off of the flame. I noticed that if I don't let the water sit and I start pouring right away that the coffee doesn't taste as rich. It ends up having a more watery taste than when I wait a bit. I, also, really suggest that you use high quality coffee. That's just its own rule. Happy Sipping!

I’ve had my 480ml about a week now. I initially bought the 240ml pot but returned it – my fault, I didn’t realize how small it is. In my opinion, if you like a good mug of coffee in the morning, you will need the 480ml. What can I say, I like to prolong my experience of drinking really good-tasting coffee – and that’s what I’m getting with this brewer. It definitely took some trial and error, and I’m still a little mystified because I recently bought a small scale and found that I’m using about 18 grams of coffee to make 360ml (about 12 oz.) of a pretty strong brew . That’s WAY less that what Hario recommends (they say 10-12 grams per 120 ml). I use a somewhat coarse grind (Baratza Encore burr grinder at #18) and the total brewing time is around 3 minutes, including a 30 second “bloom” time. I decided to try my old 1 quart pyrex measuring cup to pour with before dropping another $30-$40 on a “pour over” kettle and I’m glad I did – it’s working out fine, I can get a nice steady dribble of water into the grounds. Dealing with the filter is not as bad as I thought – no one’s mentioned that you have to thread it on & off the ring every time you make a cup, but it actually got easier after the first few times. Cleanup is easy – just turn it inside-out, tap into a garbage can, rinse and store. That’s where things get a little more complicated – my wife, who’s a bit of a germ-phobe, claims that the recommended method of storage for the filter (soaking in the refrigerator) is not sanitary. I lack the knowledge to speak to this specific issue, but my gut feeling is that if you change the water each time and boil the filter once a week (Hario recommends boiling it occasionally) you’ll be fine. I guess time will tell on that one.Did I mention that the coffee I make with this brewer tastes really good? I have an Aeropress but gave up on it since the cups it makes are too small, and after diluting with water the coffee seems to lack some of the acidic “bite” I like. I’ve been getting Clover brews at the “unmentionable” place, and while those still taste best to me, the Hario is a very close second.UPDATE! Nine months later, I thought I would mark the occasion of changing my filter! I probably should have changed it a while ago, only because the water is flowing much easier in the new one. This first cup with the new filter did taste a little cleaner too. I store it in a ziplock in the freezer, not soaking in water as the instructions suggest. Of course the filter became discolored from regular use, and it was a little more difficult to thread onto the ring (as the openings got frayed), but I never saw any evidence of mold or decay on the cloth. I did boil it every few weeks as Hario suggests.As great a tasting cup as I get with the Hario, I am considering moving on. The issue for me is that I like a HOT cup of coffee and despite my best efforts – preheating the filter, pot, pyrex pouring cup, *and* my coffee mug with boiling water – it's just not making it. By the time the three minute + pour is done, the coffee is satisfyingly hot only for the first one or two sips. I think I'm going to need an "SCAA certified" brewer that provides a constant flow of 200+ degree water. If a really hot cup 'o joe is not as big an issue for you, I will repeat that the Hario makes an exceptionally good tasting cup of coffee.

OK - I've never used/drank coffee from a Chemex so I can't really say. But, I do love coffee and have tried everything from espresso in various European countries, drip coffee from a crappy machine, a nice percolator, French press, Stumptown...everything - and this is the best freaking cup of coffee I have had in a long time. Honestly, I have only made one cup with this thing so far...but the coffee you will get from this is so smooth, so fresh and clean, that's really the only way I can describe it.Now, if you're like me, all the fancy espresso places have been getting kind of heavy for me - like one cup and I'm pretty much done for the day, the espresso is thick, it's strong, all the good stuff but it just feels heavy (I'm a latte drinker). Drinking a cup of this is just so refreshing.Like I said, I have never tried using or drinking from a Chemex before, but I decided to go with a Hario because of the reusable fabric filter. I've read that you have to refrigerate the filter after use (to keep it moist, you don't want to wash and dry it every time you use it), so I stuck it in a ziploc container for the next time, pretty easy.All in all, way easier to use than my little espresso machine (which broke from over-use), and easy to clean too.***edit: Nov.2012OK, rereading my above review makes me cringe but I have been using this little guy solid for over a year now, and I am still so happy with it. All you need is some hot boiled water, some fresh ground beans, and the rest is so easy. You don't need to replace or constantly buy new filters, and you just take the wood handle off and throw this guy in the dishwasher, it's so easy. I find that the coffee it makes gets better and better as you get to know the right amount of water/beans. The only thing is that this size makes max 2 cups of coffee.
