Stick to the French Press it tastes better. I need to replace mine that disappeared sometime in the move from Charlotte to Boone.
That said, if you do go drip, I like a coffee maker that uses the cone filters. The filters are a bit higher, but they make better coffee when you only do a partial pot. As for the fancy gold permanent filters I have two of them in the cupboard where they stay. So much more convenient to just toss the paper ones in the trash (it isn't much more environmentally unfriendly than just tossing the grounds). I have never seen nor used cloth filters, but the idea seems like a nightmare to me unless you have absolutely nothing better to do with your time than was them. -- graywolf http://www.graywolfphoto.com http://webpages.charter.net/graywolf "Idiot Proof" <==> "Expert Proof" ----------------------------------- Shel Belinkoff wrote: > I've been brewing coffee using the French Press method for years.
