minus-squareMexOPMlinkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoYou might not like the dripper if you don’t want to use paper filters. Yeah the timemores are around that price, no complaints with mine but I don’t really have anything to compare it with other than the hario it replaced which was terrible.

Using a blade grinder?
Yeah, it looks like a little mini blender.
