Large metal screen filter basket?
« on: January 18, 2010, 07:06:32 PM »
Does anyone know if there is a large metal screen filter basket made that will fit the holder in an office Bunn machine?  Something like the Swiss Gold.  I've been unable to find anything of that diameter so far.

Thanks,

kp

Do you have a machine model number or filter number?

Closest I've been able to come is to make up one from wire mesh - http://www.mcmaster.com. The problem with mesh filters is they let too much sediment through to suit me.

Hmm ... the shape of this looks close to this.  But then again caveat emptor.  The only way you would know for sure would be to try it out or contact someone at vendor that is selling the permanent filter just to make sure.

I found a filter basket with gold filters that fits a Bunn-o-matic here about a year ago, but unfortunately they seem not to have them any more. It makes a much better cup of coffee in my opinion.

There's a pick of it in this thread.
