I recently purchased a vintage Filtron pot. The kind made of heavy rubber glass. It's parts are: Top section for water Large middle section for coffee grounds Bottom section to hold the coffee Fan to hold the coffee Plastic screw on filter Plastic cone with cone edge Round fabric filter
How on earth do I use this thing?
I love the idea of cold brewed coffee and want to try it out.
Thanks for the welcome! And thanks for the link. I had seen this already and the maker I have is the old fashioned all glass one. I will post some pics when I get home tonight.
Thanks again Leonard PS: I spent hours cruising around this site last night. VERY cool how many other people love vacuum coffee pots so much!

Congrats on your purchase, EccoPronto.
It does appear that you have a vintage Filtron Cold Brew Coffee Maker. You can visit http://www.jitterbuzz.com/indcof.html and scroll down to see a picture of it, packaging & brochure as well as instructions according to the posting by "40s Phil of central Indiana."
Hope this helps and you enjoy many cups of cold brewed coffee.

I've consulted that page may times just to look at the photos of all those amazing coffee makers.
The instructions they provide are for the newer (1970s) model.
Sooner or later I will fiNd the instructions and I will pass them along to you guys.
Thanks for addressing the question though. I appreciate it.
Best Leonard
nb: I'm drinking a cup of coffee made in my silex vacuum as I write this. If people knew how smooth and delicious coffee becomes when brewed in the vacuum method, they could junk every electric drip machine in the house. It is de-licious! (I'm just sayin')
