I don't mean this to be an advertisement, but I have tried a few metal coffee filters, and have not been able to find one that works as well as one from a company called Ovalware. Its the only one I could find that lists a micron size for the inner mesh (40 μm). I've found that this draw down time is faster than a paper filter, it is still slower than other mesh filters. And while it doesn't quite eliminate fines, it does a great job keeping most of them out of my coffee compared to other mesh filters. I've also not had any trouble with the filter coming apart at the seams, or getting coffee grounds stuck between the inner and outer layers.

Has anyone tried this filter? Or have you found other metal filters that you've liked?

I’m pretty sure it’s just color preference. I got the basic stainless steel version. Let us know what you think if you end up trying it.
