- Where are Coffee Disc filters available? The filters used are - #2 coffee filter (4 cup size - either basket or cone styles can be used - we tend to prefer the basket style) and are generally available at supermarkets, coffee shops or on the web. These are the same paper filters that have been used in the smaller sized drip coffee machines for years. We believe that using filters that are readily (and easily) available locally helps to improve customer satisfaction.

- Can I brew Tea's with it? Sure can! Just use loose teas in the BREW-YET Coffee Disc Maker instead of coffee - Follow the same steps to make a Disc and you can brew your favorite tea. Or just as with the Coffee Discs, you can create your tea brews by blending different tea's and flavors to your liking.

- Does it produce consistent coffee? We believe that the BREW-YET Coffee Disc Maker produces very consistent coffee each and every time. In making coffee, once you have selected your brewing technology, the next two largest variable that can influence the consistency of the coffee are the coffee itself (this includes freshness, grind and blend) and the amount of coffee that is used in the brew (to little and it can be weak etc.). The BREW-YET Coffee Disc Maker provides the home coffee brewer with the flexibility to use their desired coffee – so we will not discuss that here. The BREW-YET Coffee Discs Maker also allows one (within the limits of what the various machines will accept) to vary the amount of coffee used (the instructions indicate 2 TABLESPOONS of coffee). Here at BREW-YET™, we like our coffee on the stronger side – so our Tablespoons tend to be “FULL” Tablespoons, which naturally produces a very consistent volume of coffee of use. Any method that lets you use a consistent amount of coffee will result in a very consistent Brewed cup of coffee.

- Have heard about “pre-wetting” a Coffee Disc - what is it? In virtually any Single Serve coffee machine that does not pre-wet the pod as part of its cycle – you should consider doing this. What you do is to place the Coffee Disc into the pod holder and simply run hot water over it, till it is damp. The results is a moistened Disc, which will have better overall extraction. This is a common technique used with prepackaged products to improve their consistency.
