I can't believe we are on generation 3 and haven't put one through its paces on a road show.  Time to change that.

Post here to sign up to take a chance on winning the KONE (Gen 3).  I am sold on it and haven't used a paper filter in who knows how long.  I put it right into my Chemex 8-cup or my Hario V60 when I just want one cup.  Fabulous results but why take my word -- try it yourself.

Cost to participate:  $6.48
Time to use?  One week and ship it on.
Members needed for the road show?  10
Who wins?  I have Jim Spain's wife Patti pick a random number.  That person drops to last and gets to keep the filter. 

So who is in?  I will order and send to the 1st person on the list when we have 10 members in.  Send no money now -- wait until we hit the needed number of members.

4. Richdel, paid

5. Yakster, paid
7. Bekeld, paid, skip, already KONE-d

I have been wanting to try this, so I am in. This will be my first experience with a Kone of any kind. Thanks for getting this one started!

This will be my first roadshow, and I'm really excited about trying this. Do I pay now or when we have 10 members?

This is a really cool idea, and I hope to get in on some additional offerings in the future. Thanks for putting it together.

Sorry I missed that. Next time I'll actually read. I'll be the first to admit I got interrupted 3 times while I was looking at that on my phone so not the best use of technology there.

You know I would be in, but have already broke down on one a few days after Gesha Fest.

I like the look of version 2 better, and as clumsy as I am have never done harm with any of the sharp or pointy bits.  Version 3 has a much wider acceptable grind range, and I think I like the effect of a slightly coarser grind than is really practical in v2.

Yup, add me to the list. I have v.1 as well. The pointy end had drawn blood and was buried in the cupboard. Probably need to sell it to someone less clumsy.
