Is the Bodum Santos Vacuum Coffee Maker any good?
This Bodum Santos stovetop coffee maker is funky to look and it is fun to watch it brew your coffee too. This is a vacuum coffee maker, so you put water in the carafe in the bottom, put the top part on, put a filter in the mouth of the tube coming down from the top, then you put ground coffee in the top and pop it onto the stove (preferably on top of heat diffuser). The water in the bottom boils and goes up into the top area where it mixes with the coffee grinds and brews your coffee, then when pretty much all the water has gone into the top then you turn the heat off and leave it on the stove to cool (that is the safest option as it is top-heavy if you try and move it) for a few minutes and a vacuum forms in the bottom as it cools and pulls the brewed coffee through the filter, leaving the grinds in the top and some delicious coffee in the bottom! Many people think this produces some of best tasting coffee of any kind of brewing process, and it certainly has some great reviews on Amaz
