CoffeeKid - Are Vacuum Brewers Different? (#)

  „This combined with a rather short siphon tube leaves too much water in the bottom. This dilutes your coffee too much, especially if you are brewing a half pot. One other thing that bothers me about the Cona is the pour spout on the bottom vessel is really narrow - too narrow even for my special vac pot brush, a question mark-curved bristle brush designed specifically for vacpots with narrow necks and wide bellies. If this brush doesn't fit, that Cona's mouth is really narrow.“

CoffeeKid - Vacuum Brewing Method

  „The little Silex stove that came with this vac pot is awesome. They were all mint when I bought them, never used before, but I couldn't resist, now this is my daily coffee maker for my newspaper reading. Here, I just plugged the stove in - see the red coils?“

CoffeeKid - Press Pots and Drip Brewers

  „In fact, it was the press pot that gave me my introduction into the world of quality coffee in my own country. Espresso is so technologically and artistically challenging to me, I do tend to talk about it more, but at the end of the day, when I want all my worries to go away, many times I go to my favourite press pot or drip brewer for a nice, easy cuppa to relax with.“

CoffeeKid - Vacuum Brewer Hey Day

  „At the front of my vac pot section, I briefly talked about the lack of good information online about the vacuum brewing method, and you have to wonder about this - after all, in the 30s, 40s, 50s, and even early 60s, the vacuum method ruled the kitchen along side perk and other methods.. Most of the major "appliance" companies of that era made vacuum pots, including Silex, Westinghouse, Cory, General Electric, Sunbeam, just to name a few. Some of these companies (like Silex) made a whole catalog's worth of different models and accessories. If you were a coffee drinker in the 40s or 50s and you appreciated a good cuppa, chances are you had a vacuum pot in the kitchen.“
