Bodum Pour-Over Set

The standard Bodum Pour Over Coffee Maker uses a reusable stainless steel mesh filter, so paper filters are not required. This is an important difference from a Hario V60 or a paper-filter Chemex, and the catalog description calling it a paper-filter set is misleading. [Bodum's catalog lists the stainless steel construction](https://prod-bodum-media.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/media_production/downloadable/Catalog%202025_r3.pdf).

The common 11592 model is the 4-cup version with a capacity of 0.5 liters, or about 17 U.S. fluid ounces. Bodum also lists larger 1.0-liter and 1.5-liter versions, so confirm the model number before ordering.

Add ground coffee to the reusable filter, slowly pour hot water over the grounds, and let the brewed coffee collect in the glass carafe. Because the filter is permanent, there are no paper filters or coffee capsules to discard after brewing.

The Bodum uses a glass carafe and a permanent stainless steel filter, while a Hario V60 normally uses disposable cone-shaped paper filters and a separate server. The Bodum setup is convenient for avoiding paper filters, but the reusable mesh allows more coffee oils and fine particles into the cup.
