Handbrühmethode: Gewünschte Wassermenge im Wasserkocher aufkochen, während dessen Papierfilter (Größe 6) in den Porzelanfilter einlegen und Kaffeepulver einfüllen. Sprudelndes Wasser darüber gießen bis zum Papierfilterrand. Bester Kaffee überhaupt.Bei der Handbrühmethode sind jedoch mehrere Dinge wichtig: Gewisses ausprobieren ist angesagt bis die Methode gut sitzt. Je nach Kaffeepulver, Papierfilter, Wassermenge und Kaffeepulvermenge, aber auch je nach "Art" des Eingießens, schmeckt der Kaffee mal besser, mal schlechter, daher hier ein paar unkomplizierte Tipps die ich mit dem Porzelanfilter anwende und dadurch mit diesem Produkt sehr zufrieden bin.Der Porzelanfilter hat übrigens auf der Unterseite einen kleinen Ring und passt und sitzt dadurch auf allen meinen Kannen UND Tassen recht gut und stabil UND kann auch von alleine stehen ohne umzukippen (z.B. im Spülbecken).Tipp 1: Bei nur 200ml, Filtergröße 4 ausreichend und Porzelanfilter vorher heiß Ausschwenken (damit Kaffee nicht gleich zu kalt wird)Tipp 2: Wenn das Wasser zu langsam durchläuft gibt es zwei Möglichkeiten; erstens: bei geringer Wasserrestmenge vorzeitig den Filter von der Kanne nehmen oder zweitens:Tipp 3: ich stecke immer (schon vorab) den Griff eines Edelstahl Brotmessers zwischen Papierfilter und Porzelanfilter. Dadurch öffnet sich ein Spalt über den der gebrühte Kaffee schneller abfließen kann wodurch er keine Zeit hat die Bitterstoffe aufzunehmen.

I've had this about a month and use it with a carafe to make a liter of coffee at a time, using a #6 filter. I had previously been using the plastic RSVP Manual Drip Coffee Filter Cone so I'll compare them. The two cones have some obvious differences:1) the Cilio is heavy ceramic, the RSVP is light plastic. The Cilio is much easier to clean and looks great in the kitchen. The RSVP would be my choice for a camping trip.2) the Cilio has a flat bottom with a cup-like foot while the RSVP has a molded extension that is designed to fit into a carafe or thermos. In practice, the Cilio fits fine on top of my carafe, with the foot inside the lip of the carafe. It is not as secure as the RSVP, but it is secure enough. On my thermos, however, the foot of the Cilio does not fit inside or outside the opening. It rests on top and one would need to be very cautious. The RSVP works well with a thermos. The Cilio can be placed on top of a coffee cup, while the RSVP just falls in. The Cilio can sit upright on a counter3) the Cilio has very deep ridges the entire height of the cone, while the RSVP has very shallow ridges and only in the bottom half of the cone. These ridges allow coffee to flow through the sides of the filter paper and down to the bottom. The Cilio also has two large holes in the bottom, while the RSVP has a single smaller hole. Because of these features, the Cilio will pass a liter of water through coffee and a #6 filter in about 30 seconds, which unfortunately results in weak coffee. In contrast, the RSVP will quickly clog and takes two minutes or even longer, which results in annoyance. I'm still experimenting, but my current method is to place two coffee beans in the holes on the Cilio to restrict the flow. It helps, but results vary depending on the bean size.I prefer the Cilio for kitchen use, but am still working on getting the flow right. I might try using a glass bead to block one hole, and I might also try a finer grind. The RSVP is going back into my camping gear (I might try drilling out the hole more).UPDATE: I had been using a very coarse grind with the RSVP because it had such a problem with clogging. I finally got around to using a fine and extra fine grind with the Cilio, since it didn't have that problem. This works pretty well. The coffee doesn't gush through the filter as fast and I don't need to block the holes. I've tried various grind settings from fine to extra-fine: extra-fine is too much, a fine grind works better and you get less sediment. I've raised my rating to five stars.
