    Chandos,
    you're correct. I meant drip filters then. My dictionary didn't have pictures or explanations.

    As for Krups, this beauty is the one I have.

    :D Btw, I made the part about the water-like-consistency up out of pure silliness :shake: The idea was to describe generic really bad coffee. What I did not make up was that my sources were unanimous about that they didn't like whatever they got.

    I have to issue a retraction. I talked about this subject to my wife, who has visited Europe on several occassions. While she pointed out that it is a matter of opinion whether European or American coffee is better, she did say that she felt European coffee was stronger on average than American coffee, and seemed to have a higher caffeine content. She likes strong coffee, and thus thought that European coffee was better, and thought that I would think the same. Acknowledging that, she pointed out that if you make your own coffee at home, you can make it as strong as you want.

    Heh, that would explain why my friends say I make coffee "European style" I just make it the way my family does, since I don't drink it.
