Product Overview
Melitta #4 Cone Coffee Filters are designed to enhance your coffee brewing experience. Made from natural brown, unbleached paper, these filters feature micro-fine flavor-enhancing perforations to ensure a rich, clean cup of coffee by filtering out impurities. Their double-crimped design provides extra strength and durability, preventing bursting during use. Each pack contains 300 filters, suitable for 8- to 12-cup cone-style coffee makers.
Setup
Before brewing, ensure your coffee maker is clean and ready for use. These filters are designed for cone-style coffee makers.

Operating Instructions
- Prepare the Filter: Take one Melitta #4 cone coffee filter from the pack. Gently unfold it to form a cone shape.
- Place in Brewer: Insert the unfolded filter into the cone-shaped filter basket of your 8- to 12-cup coffee maker or pour-over device. Ensure the filter sits snugly against the sides of the basket.
- Add Coffee Grounds: Measure your desired amount of coffee grounds and add them evenly into the filter.
- Brew Coffee: Proceed with your usual brewing method, whether it's an automatic drip coffee maker or a manual pour-over technique. The filter will effectively separate the coffee grounds from the brewed coffee.
The micro-fine perforations in the filter paper allow for optimal flavor extraction while preventing sediment from entering your cup.
Maintenance
These are disposable coffee filters designed for single use. After brewing, carefully remove the used filter containing the coffee grounds from your coffee maker or pour-over device. Dispose of the filter and grounds responsibly. No cleaning of the filter itself is required.
Troubleshooting
- Filter Collapse: Ensure the filter is fully opened and properly seated in the cone-shaped basket before adding coffee grounds and water. The double-crimped design helps maintain shape, but improper placement can lead to collapse.
- Slow Drip: If your coffee is brewing too slowly, check that the coffee grounds are not too fine, which can clog the filter. Also, ensure the water flow is consistent and not too rapid, especially with pour-over methods.
- Sediment in Coffee: While these filters are designed to prevent impurities, very fine coffee grounds or an improperly seated filter can sometimes allow sediment through. Ensure the filter is correctly positioned and consider a slightly coarser grind if the issue persists.
