I. Why Choose a Metal Coffee Filter?
Compared to paper filters, metal coffee filters offer longer lifespan and superior eco-friendliness. They are reusable and washable, significantly reducing environmental impact. Additionally, metal filters preserve the natural oils and enhance the authentic flavor profile of coffee.
II. Pre-Use Preparation
Cleaning: Soak the metal filter in hot water for 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
Grinding: Grind coffee beans to a fine consistency suitable for metal filters.
Water Temperature: Bring water to a boil, then let it cool to 90°C–95°C (194°F–203°F).
III. How to Use Your Metal Coffee Filter
Place ground coffee into the filter.
Position the filter securely over your cup or coffee pot.
Slowly pour a small amount of hot water to saturate the grounds. Let it bloom for 30 seconds.
Gradually add the remaining hot water. Allow coffee to drip through completely.
IV. Metal Filter Maintenance
Rinse immediately after each use to prevent coffee residue buildup.
Deep-clean periodically using a vinegar solution or baking soda paste.
Avoid direct sunlight exposure to protect the filter’s coating integrity.
