So I've got into filter coffee in a big way since joining Monmouth and the filter racks they use make life a lot easier, so I knocked up a two cup version in the shed this afternoon. Thought I'd share it with you.
It allows you to pull the cup when it's ready and leave the filter to drain into the drip tray to make the clean up easier.

I too love this drip method. I've bought some filter cones for me and to sell and I'm looking for someone who can build me some racks. Very cool

Very nice! I just (a few days ago) switched again from drip back to the Aeropress, this time with paper filters ... when I get back to drip I know I want one of those!

This week I like my coffee luke-warm.

Nice thread on coffeed, lots of interestind designs. I don't understand the argument that it's better to have the cone directly on top of the cup in a commercial situation. It is vital to be able to see the progress of the brew in the cup when you have a whole bunch of cups at different stages at the same time.

yep, the monmouth one was developed for borough market stall for that very reason.
works really well though, as you know, it is not as easy as it looks to make a cup well
