Vietnamese Coffee Filter


This traditional one cup coffee filter is an icon in many asian restaurants. The single cup slow drip filter infuses the coffee with the full flavor and fragrance of the coffee's oils. Comes in 3 pieces: stainless steel body, lid, and removeable screw type screen. To make coffee, remove lid and screw out the upper screen. Put in the coffee (3 to 4 teaspoons). Tighten the screw moderately. Pour in a little boiling water to fill about 1/4 of the coffee filter. Wait for about 20 to 30 seconds. Undo the screw down screen a couple of turns. Refill with boiling water and replace the lid. Easy cleaning dishwasher safe durable stainless steel construction.
