Works like a charm
By macbook pro 15
This item works great. The only disappointing thing was that there were no instructions on how to use it, although a quick internet search solved that.What I do is:1. Pour about 2TBS of condensed milk into a 16 oz glass and set aside.2. Place the lid on the counter upside down and then place the coffee infuser on top of the lid like a coffee cup on a saucer3. Put 1 heaping TBS of coffe grinds inside, then put the metal strainer on top and LOOSELY screw it on. If you do it too tight then it'll take forever for the coffe to come through; too loose and you don't get the rich flavors out4. Then place the coffee infuser on top of your glass you prepared earlier.5. Pour near boiling water into the coffee infuser about 50% to 75% of the way and place the metal lid on top6. Once the coffee has filtered through then fill the rest with hot water and enjoy.

By Susan Jensen
I had read the reviews about the grounds falling through the filter holes--- but purchased it anyway ---and the first time I used it, that is exactly what happened. But, after doing some research, this little device brews a GREAT cup of coffee. Here's what I'm doing now, that works every time:1. Remove the screw-in press portion and set the main brewing pot on the lid.2. Add 1 Tablespoon coffee grounds (approximately to the ridge)3. Tap it lightly on the sides to even out the grounds.4. Screw down the press portion fairly tightly.5. Place it on the cup.6. Add about 2 tablespoons of boiling water, and let it sit about 20 seconds(***This is the essential step. If you skip it, that's when the grounds fall through the holes.***)7. Fill it close to the rim with slightly-cooled boiled water.8. Unscrew the filter slightly if it is draining into the cup too slowly. (It should take 4-5 minutes)9. Put the lid on top, and try to wait patiently.I am using a fairly finely ground coffee. I don't have any condensed milk at the moment, so I've been microwaving about 1/3 cup of regular 2% milk, then filtering the coffee into that. Otherwise, this is exactly the same device as was used at the Pho restaurant my son took me to. It's a bit shinier than it appears in the product picture. It may be somewhat cheaply made, but it does the job just fine, especially for the price.It holds about 1/2 cup of water. I tried filling it twice to make a larger cup of coffee, and that seemed to work (although one internet site said that if you want a larger cup of coffee, you should add hot water to what you already brewed, as adding more water might make the coffee a bit bitter.)I can't stress enough that STEP 6 is essential. Apparently letting that little bit of hot water sit in the device for about 20 seconds either swells the grounds a bit, or creates a meniscus (surface tension) that holds the grounds in. (Maybe both things happen?) The scientific type explanation doesn't matter so much as the fact that the grounds don't wind up in my cup!I may order a second one to take to work.

Best coffee maker for the money
By Jesse Christophel
Much of this review is about Vietnamese Coffee Phins (filters) in general since they are all very similar:Pros-Incredibly cheap-Makes VERY strong coffee (Great tasting!)-Easy to store-Easy to travel with-Can be used anywhere you can get hot water from-Easy to clean-Does not require (paper) filter replacements (no waste)-Can be used with ground coffee/tea without the need of extra filters/attachments (I'm looking at you Senseo and Keurig brewers!)-Brewing process can be done to the individual's taste/preference-Does not make an excess of coffee (no waste)-Durable (at least stainless steel ones)Cons-Assembly quality may vary-Must be cleaned after each use-Not a fully automatic process-Brewing time can be long (3-10+ minutes depending on your techniques)-Long brewing time can lead to a luke-warm cup of coffee-Does not make enough for a full travel mug (e.g. 24oz)-Only makes coffee for 1 person (at a time)-Brewing process can be tricky to learn and even harder to perfect (no 1 button push here!)-Easy to make a mess-Nearly impossible to avoid having sediment in the bottom of your cupThe unit I received personally:This filter only holds about 5oz of water, even if you add creamer or condensed milk to this you still will not have a full cup of coffee so I often will add more water half way through the brewing process so that I can get a full cup. While 7 and 8oz (about 1 fluid cup) units are fairly common, it can be difficult to find a seller that has labeled the size of the filter you are buying (Trung Nguyen even sells 11oz filters) and so when I got my filter I was not only surprised by it's small size, but uncertain as to if this was the standard size. Another side note is that the unit was not 'perfectly' assembled and the screw on top can be very difficult to remove afterwards (I usually use the butt of my stirring spoon on it like a screwdriver).Overall I really like the coffee this makes, and will be buying another, bigger, unit! The only reason I give these things a 4 star instead of 5 is because you will pretty much always have sediment in the bottom of your cup. The rest of the cons are pretty negligent in my opinion, but that may differ depending on the person.
