Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Braun #UGSF4 Univ Gold Screen Filter
Customer Review: Works well but...
Summary: 4 Stars
you still have to wash the coffee grounds out. I dump them in the garbage, of course, but then the filter takes quite a lot of rinsing, and coffee grounds get all over the sink, and you have to rinse that out. Takes a lot of water. So I still use a paper filer inside this, then the filter just takes a quick rinse. But at least if some of the grounds are outside the paper filer, they don't go in the coffee like they would with a conventional filter. Not quite worth the money to me.Customer Review: Gold Screen Coffee Filter
Summary: 1 Stars
You're better off with paper filters. They allow less sediment into your coffee than this thing does. Don't bother.Customer Review: Go for the Gold
Summary: 5 Stars
Our UGSF4 has lasted for 10 years of daily use, even after the screen has separated from the plastic, the gold has faded to silver, and the handle has been lost since who-knows-when. We wash it by hand. Coffee still tastes great!Customer Review: Great Filter!
Summary: 5 Stars
This filter works very well if you like strong coffee. A thin film of oil from the beans will end up in your coffee, and it lets through more richness than a paper filter. It also lasts a long time, and you won't have to purchase paper filters, which probably helps the environment over the long-run. Ours seem to last quite a while (a year or more?) and you can also put it in the dishwasher, which is a good idea to remove some of the residue. (Oily residue build-up in both the filter and coffee maker will cause your coffee to be bitter.) All in all, we are very happy with these filters and will continue purchasing them again and again.
