to think it would foam in the basket.

Are you talking about regular coffee maker coffee, with filters? Wingus Dingus Jun 2021 #1
Yeah, just a plain ol' Mr. Coffee type coffeepot. I have a French press, a percolator, and... TreasonousBastard Jun 2021 #4
Hmm. If you are successful, you could put all sorts of things in there. Wingus Dingus Jun 2021 #5
I have found it easier to put it in the carafe once a small amount of coffee is brewed... TigressDem Jun 2021 #2
Now I wonder why I didn't think of that! TreasonousBastard Jun 2021 #6
You were moving in that direction anyway. TigressDem Jun 2021 #8
Well, it's just me. But, I suspect I was lookingfor something unusual, not... TreasonousBastard Jun 2021 #19
YES! Just made a pot this way and it came out perfect. TreasonousBastard Jun 2021 #29

That was my suggestion. TigressDem Jun 2021 #14

Ah, well I stand corrected. TigressDem Jun 2021 #24

Sounds great. If there is a real advantage to sugaring the basket it would... TreasonousBastard Jun 2021 #21
I've put powdered chocolate mix in the basket. Mr.Bill Jun 2021 #17
Interesting. Maybe it's time for some mocha. TreasonousBastard Jun 2021 #22
Am I the only one who cringes at the thought of powdered milk? Ka-Dinh Oy Jun 2021 #18
