Lot of love to Steven for his kind donation of a Swiss gold. I love TMC for the generosity of friends here.
First impressions. I sit here with cup of Nicaraguan COE which is even better with the metal filter. Seems a little shaper and bigger in the cup and has the body that can get lost with the paper filters. Must do a side by side but my initial impressions are its an improvement. Which begs the question why aren’t Aerobie doing them as standard. It also allows a much finer grind as I dialled this one right down.
NB some kind of gloves are an idea whilst cutting the filter I'm picking little bits of metal out my fingers as I type
