Does this coffee pot need a filter and if it does, where do I find them? Thanks!

We use it to keep coffee hot that has been brewed in our central kitchen, therefore I have not used the brewing portion.

It is a percolating unit that does not require a filter. You place grounds in a provided metal dish. Just pick a course ground coffee, add water and let it brew!

No filters needed. I have found a few grounds in the very bottom of the urn. If you do buy filters, you will need to go to Restaurant Depot or other restaurant supply store. Also check on Amazon for large coffee filters. I found that when you use a filter, the coffee grounds overflow the top of the basket and thus having grounds in the coffee..:( not a good thing.

You definitely want to have a filter and honestly it was difficult to find the specific size for this coffee maker, however, you can just buy giant filters to cover the top and that works just fine. Hope it helps.

We use a paper filter in ours. We had some left over from before. They are just like the ones used in a regular Mr. Coffee, but one size bigger; fold in quarters, cut off tip and it fits over the percolator tip. The last ones I purchased were at WalMart, but I have not purchased any in the last year. The holes in the basket filter are quite small, you could try it without the paper filter, but you will likely have some grounds left in the bottom of the pot.

Hello, this coffee maker has removable cup, no filters needed but it's very different to one I just to had, this one has a plastic lid that I don't know how it goes and the only time that I used all coffee grounds come inside the coffee, oh well I guess I need the manual.M.

I don't know why you need to replace the filter, but if it's because of calcium build-up as mine were, soaking it in vinegar does wonders. I'm not an expert, but I don't think you must use a filter anyway. If you feel you must use one for your water, perhaps you can use a fine mesh filter such as those for coffee makers, and hold that over your mug? I now have a reverse osmosis unit, so my pot is spotless.

It doesn't require a filter...but I still like to use one...I just use a regular Mr.Coffee filter. Punch a hole in the center..fits pretty good. Only covers the bottom

We have used a paper filter for this but I don't like doing that because I think it takes the oil out of the coffee and makes it taste bland. We just use a small round wire strainer set over the cup to catch any grounds that have escaped the basket. The answer is no you don't need any kind of additional filter.

no the filter is purchased separately, there's a great video on You Tube as to how to use this Drip Pot, its a great little pot to use if you only drink one cup of coffee in the morning or your not in a hurry, hope this help you. Nancy

No special filters but be aware that the coffee side had a rubber taste for awhile. I cleaned with salt and vineger and it is a little better. For what I paid I would recommend buying another brand.

I am guessing you now have a third coffee maker, so if you are asking if a water filter is included, it should be. We change it out every 6 months or so. We use Reverse Osmosis filtered water which makes our filter for the coffee maker last much longer. The water is cleaner & tastes like fresh clean spring water!

I'm sorry, but I don't now. All it says as listed: Permanent Gold Screen Coffee Filter. They never wear out, although I wanted a new one. You should feel safe trying it. I love mine!Lynn

None. There is a plastic basket inside where you can put your coffee. I never used a filter but suppose if you get a really small one it might help if some of the grounds, if small, escape into the coffee pot.

No I use paper filters - square with paper punched holes in each corner, and one in the center. Easy to use. You can get them from the grocery store. Near the regular filters . I always used when I went camping - on a camp stove. Put the center hole over the center coffee basket post - then put in the coffee - fold over each corner onto the center post. Easy to get rid of used grounds.

They do not REQUIRE the paper filters, however, you do get a very small amount of coffee "debris" in the bottom of your cup, which is so small it is not a problem for either my husband or myself. I have not tried using them for anything other than coffee. Hopefully, someone else can answer your question concerning the other items.

My coffee maker doesn't use that style of filter. It goes in the bottom of the water tank.

You do not need a filter for this french press. There is a screen that acts as the filter to keep the grounds out. The press keeps out most of the grounds, but the screen attached to the lid will also filter out any remaining grounds.

I use basket-style filters when I make a full pot. Otherwise you use the insert provided with machine to make individual cups, which does not need a filter.
