Able KONE

Does it come in a size that fits into the Hario V60?

Yes, but it does stick up above it a bit. SM has a bunch of pictures. I would primarily use it in my V60 and my 8C Chemex. Although, the 8C Chemex has not been used since the Brazen arrived.

Thanks, Eric, I will look.  I forgot that the Hario V60 I have and was referring to is the small one -- maybe V60-01.   And all I have ever used in it are the Hario unbleached filters I bought when I got it....

I believe, with the way the Kone works, it won't matter how much sticks above the cone holder.

So, that would mean I could throw away an entire drawer full of filter papers for various sizes of Chemexes and Harios?
AND I will like the taste better?
Wow.  That makes expensive sound not so much....

Eric?  Did you pull the trigger on one?

Assuming you have a good pouring kettle, and don't have the shakes.

Able Brewing is the place for you then, my friend!

I ordered the 8C Chemex along w/ the Kone; $95 for the pair, just for the times when I want to brew two or more mugs.

Well ....
I tried, but whatever frugality is still in my genetic make-up declined to push the button on the total of $70.
Maybe another day when I am feeling looser with the purse....

Pourover remains a second-choice mode for me, so I guess I'm stuck with paper filters for a while....

I just hit the place order button. I had an order for SM so at least I saved the $10 in shipping.  I will let you know what I think.

You would never have to buy filters again, so it would save you money in the long run. It also works quite well in a Clever.

This would be pertinent if I didn't already have a life-time supply of paper filters due to a bad habit I have of buying in bulk, consuming in whatever is the opposite of bulk, and changing my mind a lot....

Still...
one of these days...I will probably 'just want it' more than I do today.

KONE 3 is KING.

[BozemanEric]

The Kone Arrives today. My first impressions, this thing is a lot lighter than I thought it would be. Any other impressions will have to wait. I left all my pour over devices at my place and I am still housesitting my folks dogs.  I will let you all know what I think as soon as I have a chance to use it.

[BozemanEric]

This might have already been answered somewhere in these nineteen pages but I got tired of looking. Do I need to adjust my grind when using the Kone in my V60 and Chemex or do I stick with the same grind as I use with paper?

[headchange4u]

Noticed today the the plastic lip on my Kone is broken. I use it with the Clever almost daily and hand wash it after each use. I've not been rough with it.

Anyone else had and issue?
