Funny, I get all the Melitta products all around me, EXCEPT the brewer itself! I found it online but it cost as much as a V60 so I have no incentive to try it.
The filters are good, I haven't had issues with them. I hear good things about the cones, the openings seem smaller than a v60 so the flow might take longer. In theory you can grind a tad bit coarser to compensate if you follow a V60 recipe. The cone itself is plastic so it retains heat well. You can pre-heat it with boiling or hot tap water to increase extraction.
That's what matters. I can only give general advice. Play around with the grind settings to dial things a little if you want. Try things out with different water. Ultimately the coffee itself, pouring technique, temperature, grind size, filter, water quality all play a role. The cone is just a small part.
I have plenty of variables to play with then. Thank you for the tips!
