I've just recently bought a Bodum vacuum pot (the stove-top kind, not automatic) and I really like it EXCEPT the filter really tends to get clogged. I've tried using a coarser grind of coffee and it still happened--it just took a little longer than with a finer grind. I really don't want half of my coffee to be infused for 20 minutes or so! I've heard that Cona vacuum pots are better but I didn't want to spend so much money for something I only use on the weekend anyway. Is there a filter from another brand of manual vacuum pot that would fit the Bodum Santos? I read on an FAQ about vacuum pots that the filter could be replaced but I'm not sure which brand to try. Any advice greatly appreciated!
