I have a hot water dispenser built into my sink. I put a Melitta cone holder over my mug, put a size 2 filter in it, put it under the spout, put a bit of water over the grounds, wait a second or two and fill cone and let it drip. Fills mug perfectly. I'm the only one who drinks coffee here so that works perfectly for me. Fresh cup each time. Lately I've been enjoying Kirkland coffee.
