I had a couple of these types of grinder/brewers that were off-brand before I finally sprung for the Cafflano. It's great; the grinder is high quality and takes a bit of getting used to but I don't think it'll ever give out. The self-contained mug is relatively large, but for the number of features you get with it, it's worth it as that is literally all you need to bring with you to make good coffee. You can pre-load it with beans for easy next cup. I have never used the pour-over spigot that's included in the top cup, but it does offer a nice fine stream for a controlled pour. The pour-over basket itself is small and very fine mesh, so you would need a slightly coarser grind, otherwise be prepared to sit there and meditate for at least five minutes while you pour (and your water will likely fall out of ideal brewing range). If you're not a zealous coffee aficionado who needs everything to be laboratory precision, then it's totally fine and very convenient for travel. If you are, you'll probably find something to gripe about, but come on, we're talking about a portable grinder and pour over... Read more

This made excellent coffee. I wanted to have something to make good coffee when I visit my kids who have indiscriminate taste for coffee (think Folgers). The only concern is that is takes a while to grind the beans by hand and the beans kept popping out while I was trying to grind them, hence the 4 stars instead of 5. If the well for the beans was a little deeper maybe the beans wouldn't jump out as much. Read more

Great to have for good quality coffee when traveling from hostel to hostel but a chore to grind the coffee beans. Read more

I've tried a lot of portable coffee set ups, and I think I've finally found my favorite. For my uses (road trips, camping, etc) the Cafflano Classic is perfect. It fits together into a super portable/sleek device and has everything you need for a good pour over. Does it provide the same quality of say a Chemex? Maybe not quite, but it does a great job when you're on the go. I think the only thing that could make this product better is if it had the ability to heat the water as well. This will be one of the products I'll use for years and years. Read more

I love this thing. I was paying $1.83 at work every day for their concentrated coffee that they just add hot water to. Now, I just line the strainer with a paper filter then fill it up with coffee grounds and use the same hot water they use to mix with the concentrated coffee. 5 mins later after finishing pouring over the hot water, I have coffee I paid pennies for. Then i just dump out the paper filter into the trash, and there's no mess and no grounds to cleanup at all. BIG W!!! Read more
