Silly Coffee Pot question

[chaoscent]

I can't remember what size filters go in the coffee pot at the Boardwalk. We are going down 6/26 & I need my coffee to get jump started on the day. I don't have paper filters in my coffee pot at home so I will have to buy them & I forget what they look like now. Thanks, Penny

They're the basket type filter NOT the cone ones.

I don't use filters at home because I use a percolater. When I'm at DVC, I trim the plain white towels down to fit in the basket. They work great!

They do provide a couple of filters in each room. I just ask Mousekeeping for a few more when I see them in the hall.

8 cup basket style filters. I also need my coffee in the am.

Those silly coffee pots. They just don't know how to act!

the filters I use are basket type. The box says 8 - 12 cups.

We just pick up a pack of the Maxwell House filter pacs. Not our favorite brand, but soo convenient and it doesn't matter the basket type. We haven't found the package type in my photo, usually the stores carry a canister of about 12 packets.

If you aren't going to be able to hit a store down there then you can just put them in a zip bag and throw them in the suitcase. We use two for 12 ounces (strong).

Thanks everyone. I am planning another trip in August & our Dollar Store sells the filters. I love the paper towel idea, but I always seem to make a mess of things when I am emptying the filter when using the paper towels (I have used them at home when I have run out of filters). I like flavoured coffee and rarely make it at home as DH doesn't like it. So I will bring flavored coffee with (DH isn't coming) and enjoy that first cup of coffee, sitting on the balcony, while waiting for my nieces to get up. Can't wait. Penny
