How hard are vacpots to use day to day?
Day to day use of a vacuum brewer is not a hard thing to maintain. The cleanup and care is higher than that with an auto drip electric coffeemaker, but not excessively so. Depending on the filter device you use, it can be very low maintenance indeed, and the coffee you get from it will taste great. The normal measurement of grounds is 7 grams (or one heaping tablespoon full) of ground coffee per 4 ounces of brew. This is subjective however: use it as your starting point and adjust to taste.
