{"product_id":"stainless-hanging-ear-coffee-filter","title":"304 Stainless Steel Hanging-Ear Coffee Filter","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWhy it exists\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaper filters run out, soak through in a wet pack, and leave you standing over a mug with hot water and nothing to hold the grounds. Drip bags are convenient until the box is empty three days from a store. This 304 stainless mesh cone hangs on the rim of your mug by two fold-out ears, so you can brew pour-over at camp or at the kitchen counter with no paper supply at all. When you are done, the ears fold in and the whole cone sits inside a cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfold the two ears and hook them over the rim of a mug or camp cup; with the ears open the cone is about 12.9 cm (5.1 in) wide, which spans most mugs. Add your grounds to the mesh, wet them with a little hot water to bloom, then pour in slow passes the same way you would with a paper dripper. The coffee drains straight through the 304 stainless mesh into the cup below. Lift it off, knock the spent grounds into your trash bag or fire-safe ash pile, rinse the mesh, and let it dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a single-cup pour-over tool. It replaces the dripper and the paper in one piece and works over any cup the ears can grip: an enamel mug, a titanium cup, or the kitchen mug at home. For packing, fold the ears in and drop the cone, about 7.4 cm (2.9 in) tall, into the same mug you brew in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for the trail\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReusable 304 stainless mesh cone\u003c\/strong\u003e; no paper filters to buy, carry, or keep dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo fold-out ears\u003c\/strong\u003e hook over a mug rim, so you need no separate dripper or stand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEars fold in\u003c\/strong\u003e and the cone stores inside a cup, taking almost no extra room in the kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbout 12.9 cm (5.1 in) wide with the ears open\u003c\/strong\u003e, sized to span most mugs and camp cups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbout 7.4 cm (2.9 in) tall\u003c\/strong\u003e, low enough to pack in a standard mug.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFood-contact material (FCM)\u003c\/strong\u003e with no high-concerned chemicals listed by the maker.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCleans in seconds\u003c\/strong\u003e: knock out the grounds, rinse, dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBest for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolo backpackers and hikers who brew pour-over and refuse to carry paper, van and car campers who want a dripper that never runs out of consumables, and desk brewers who are tired of running out of drip bags. It is also the right choice for anyone trying to cut waste from a daily coffee habit. If you brew for two or more people at once, or you want the clean, paper-filtered cup specifically, pick a larger dripper that takes paper instead; this is a one-mug tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHonest limits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA metal mesh passes more fine particles and coffee oils than a paper filter, so expect a heavier-bodied cup with some sediment at the bottom. It brews one cup at a time. The ears need a rim to grip; very wide bowls or cups with a thick rolled lip may not seat it level, so check your mug against the roughly 12.9 cm span. The maker does not list a weight. Rinse it after every brew, because dried grounds clog mesh faster than they clog paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/thead\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e304 stainless steel mesh; food-contact material (FCM); no high-concerned chemicals listed\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eAbout 12.9 cm (5.1 in) wide with the ears open; about 7.4 cm (2.9 in) tall\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptions\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eSingle version, no options\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eOne reusable filter\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWorks with\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eMost mugs and camp cups (the ears hook over the rim); no paper filters needed\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eKnock out the grounds, rinse the mesh, and let it dry; ears fold in so it stores inside a cup\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's covered\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30-day returns for unused items in original packaging; anything that arrives defective or damaged is replaced.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree shipping on every order.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e ","brand":"Ridgebrew","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67103836700913,"sku":"RB-STAINLESS-HANGING-EAR-CO-1","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/7114\/1361\/files\/rb_hero_stainless-hanging-ear-coffee-filter.png?v=1790789118","url":"https:\/\/ridgebrew.com\/it\/products\/stainless-hanging-ear-coffee-filter","provider":"Ridgebrew","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
