Bought these as a gift for my husband. Includes very hwlpful directions on how to steep....getting the grind (coarseness) right and how much to tamp down the beans takes a little practice to get the drip-rate right but its just a practice thing and well worth the effort. Very happy with how it turned out

I almost never write reviews but this was such a poor product experience that I hope this review prevents someone else from making the same mistake. As soon as I opened it, I gave it a quick wash and started making my coffee. After a while, I noticed that the water was taking too long to drip down.That's when I saw the gunk that was stuck between the holes in the filter. It certainly explains why the water took so long to drip. I tried scrubbing a little harder but no sponge could get in between those tiny holes. I tried using a Waterpik water pressured flosser to clean some of the gunk and got some of it but ultimately still needed to use a needle to clear the holes. I wish I had taken a picture of it before cleaning the gunk but I have one from after I was done. This is just what remained in my sink as most of it had already gone down the drain.Additionally, one of the handles of the filter inserts was welded on crooked. Not a deal breaker but certainly does not inspire confidence.

Very typical Vietnamese coffee filter: easy to use, easy to clean, easy to store. The only problem I have with them is that they seem to drain a little faster than other filters, otherwise they work great!

I like variety in my coffee life, and these definitely have a role and get used often. Obviously they are my go to for Vietnamese style drinks, duh. They are pretty much my go to for any style iced coffee actually. Cheap and indestructible enough to tote around, or stash places like work or relatives houses.I have a couple other phin filters, and I really like this size and design. The gravity top cap is my preference, I have some that screw down and inevitably find that I like to use more coffee than will allow the threads to engage anyway. I suspect this is because the phin pots are traditionally filled with much different coffee than I'm using which of course would call for a different dosage.Also, the separate "saucer" that the filter sits on over the cup is a preference. This design seems to keep the stray grind or fine out of the cup opposed to the kind that have the "saucer" rim built into the filter. Of course it's just another thing to lose, so I guess it goes either way.With practice and attention to grind size and how tight you pack them they make a decent cup of pour over, though definitely not ideal.

I recently discovered how awesome Cafe Sua Da is at a local Vietnamese restaurant. As an iced coffee lover/addict, I had to figure out how to make it. A couple minutes of internet research brought me to these filters (and some super easy recipes)Construction quality is solid, and the gravity filters make a drink just as good as screw type filters, while being quicker/easier to prep and clean. I've made at least a dozen batches in them and I've never had an issue with grounds making their way through. I have a high-quality espresso machine and I've been loving how easy and delicious it is to make Cafe Sua Da with these.My only criticism is that the 8oz filters only make about 6oz worth of coffee. I personally prefer more, so I found myself topping off this filter. I may replace them with the 11oz version, but ONLY because I'm a heavy coffee drinker. I'm happy with everything else about this product.

Bought this set with a can of Cafe Du Monde. My local Vietnamese restaurant uses the Cafe Du Monde as well. The set brews a perfect coffee each time. I put condensed milk in a coffee cup and brew this right over it. Once done, I stir it up really good and pour the drink into another cup full of ice. Per my local guy, do not use a straw, drink it strait for the best flavor. Best Vietnamese ice coffee at a fraction of the price paid in restaurant.
