Could this be used for coffee? if not could someone link me to something similar?

I would say yes if not tooo fine a grind. It is a fine mesh and if you've ever use a coffee press you would probably get same effect. I haven't done it myself because I don't drink coffee so I don't see why not. Finished pot should contain no grounds. Not to mention that when I was young, my grandmother use to make great coffee by putting the grounds in empty egg shells. The coffee stayed pretty settled at the bottom of the pot inside the egg shells and you poured carefully. So this should work.

I just had to know. So I took one camping over the last few days. It wasn't a very good coffee filter. A lot of sediment and some grounds will make their way into your cup. I'll bet, as all reviewers have pointed out, it would be dandy for making tea!

It can be used to heat water for instant coffee, cocoa or tea. The instant products are not used in the coffee maker. Thanks for lookingSteve

It probably would work for coffee. Just keep in mind it isn't sweet, so you might need a sweetener. I use it to mellow out my curry dishes. I have not used it in coffee. The container has recipes for smoothies on it. Hope this helps.

I have used it to mix vanilla protein powder into coffee. I am not sure what the manufacturers recommendations are but it worked great for me.

though technically yes, it would be waste of coffee as the coffee reservoir is too wide to give a decent brew with minimal coffee grounds. I have a Black and Decker "Brew and Go" that I really like. It is a 1 cup brewer that is quick and easy and doesn't use those expensive "K-Cups".

Yes you can! And it would be stong, but it would be better with the percolator style coffee pot then an Automatic Drip Coffee maker style...

Yes, the only thing you can use is ground coffee! This is not a pod/k-cup compatible machine.

I've never used it for that, but it looks like it would work--except if the coffee is very finely ground, as for expresso.

Yes! But it would be best for loose tea, not coffee, unless you like really weak coffee. I bought it hoping to make my own pods with my custom mix of half italian roast and half decaf french...but you can only fit about one tablespoon of coffee in a pod. That makes for a super weak cup of coffee, even with the pulse option turned on.

If it comes intact, it should work for coffee but maybe not for super fine grained coffee.

Unlikely - it only provides less than an amp of current - US coffeemakers are usually over 10 amps

I only used it to mix a powdered drink with warm water. I never used it for hot coffee. Be careful to hold down the top when blending as it does not stay on. Good luck.

No, I think the mesh is too large for making coffee - it's a great idea though; maybe somebody will make a finer mesh ball.

It can be used BUT they are too shallow. Therefore, my coffee comes out weak, or I must make a small cup of coffee.

I think it might be ok. I used it to grind cardamom seeds and it was great. The grind wheel is adjustable so you should be ok. I don't think it would work for coffee beans or anything of that size

Well, technically you could do that. However, it would not taste as delicious as pouring freshly boiled water on freshly ground beans. You would have to give it a stir to ensure it all mixed in and it would just not be the same. However, in a pinch, it would totally work. Please don't tell any coffee lovers you did it though. ;) Just be sure the water temp isn't super high.
