Using hi-tech photo-etching technology, Sowden has developed a micro-thin filter with more than half a million microscopic holes giving outstanding filtering ability and making it possible to produce what we call SoftBrew Coffee. Put your preferred amount of ground coffee into the filter and pour in hot water, just off the boil. Let it brew for four to eight minutes and your coffee is ready. It is that simple. Nothing to worry about except the hot water. We have followed our principle of reducing things to a minimum in order to make coffee brewing the simple treat it is supposed to be and bringing out the natural flavour of coffee. The new Sowden SoftBrew filter is definitely an easy way of brewing an excellent cup of natural coffee.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.
You can trust this review, i hope you can try to buy this product and then you know this product good or no. Next time you can make a review for another people.
I returned it.
I really wanted to like this device. It received good reviews from some respectable coffee "experts" and it seemed to be a nearly ideal setup for making consistently great coffee and it seemed easy to keep clean.
Our drip coffee maker broke and I was looking for an alternative that was easier to keep clean and more landfill friendly.
However, this pot just requires too much effort to get good tasting coffee from it. I came to the conclusion that method is flawed and I ultimately returned it.
The reason this CAN achieve so little sediment is that after 4 minutes, much of the sediment has settled to the bottom and the way this thing pours, the sediment slides into a pocket towards the front and does not easily pour out of the pitcher (cool design this part).
If you follow the instructions, you will get great tasting coffee with some particulate matter, but not too much. It will be weak and your 2nd cup will be room temperature, but good...

Great little coffee pot!
I love this little pot. I ordered the 4 cup, and make coffee and tea in it every day. I find I use a full 6 scoops of coffee to brew, but I am measuring whole beans. I have a tiny kitchen, and I am the only one in the house who drinks coffee or tea, so the smaller size fits my needs. If I have guests, I just make it stronger and dilute it with a bit more water. As is, it makes three of my mugs of brew.
The coffee is wonderful. I have a problem with acid reflux and prefer black coffee, and I find I can usually drink it that way in the Sowden. I have yet to make the cold brew, but will try that when summer comes around. One thing I should add is the filter needs a good washing and rinsing because it does harbor little bits of coffee, but a soft sponge will do the job. I used to use a French press, but this is my new coffee pot of choice. No filters, not complicated or messy to clean, simple. And I can make tea in it, too. The instructions say not to microwave, but I think...
Enjoy delicate coffee flavor produced in a charming new Euro manner.
I spent the day recently at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and then pleasantly stumbled on a Peet's Coffee nearby.
A salesperson spontaneously began chatting me up about the Sowden coffee brewer. Unprompted a European gentleman approached and explained he had purchased one recently and spoke highly about the brewer. A week later, I was in another Peet's and was able to sample some coffee prepared with the Sowden 8 cup model. It was delicious and I purchased the brewer.
In my opinion the Sowden makes really delicious coffee. Although I have been using a "plug-in" automatic brewer for years, "French press" system produced coffee seems to bother my stomach less. I can drink a lot more "French press" coffee without experiencing stomach acid issues. I decided to write about my recent purchase of one after reading some of the overly critical reviews posted here.
The Sowden definitely falls into the "French Press" coffee brewing family...
