Number 6 works best: http://www.amazon.com/Melitta-Coffee-Filters-Natural-40-Count/dp/B0000CFLIL/ref=pd_sim_k_1 ...but I think the package says #4. That works too but if you are making ~30 oz (1 liter) of coffee you have to take a little longer pouring the water into the filter vs. the #6. If you have this 14 oz mug: http://www.amazon.com/Thermos-Nissan-14-Ounce-Leak-Proof-Insulated/dp/B00004WHWV/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1216510969&sr=8-2 ...then the #4 filter works fine and the #6 is fine also. I have a hard time finding the #6 at local stores so I use the #4's a lot. Darin

I have the large clever coffee dripper and it uses the #4 filters. I love it!

From what we read in the owner's manual, it uses a conical shaped paper filter. But we prefer the mesh screen filter basket that came with it versus the paper filters, the coffee seems to be more flavorfull this way.

Yes - it comes with filter basket, and we also use a paper cone filter - just to prevent grounds from getting into the coffee.

There are 55 filters in a plastic bag and cost is per plastic bag. These filters are a almost square piece of filter paper with 5 holes, one in the center and one each at each corner. Grounds may still get in the coffee by being forced out if the brewing is to fast AND you use fine ground coffee such as drip grind. Wetting the filter first helps the grounds stay in the filter better. If you grind your own coffee with a course grind then that helps keep the grounds out of the coffee also.

Yes, we use a cone with Melita filters; shortly after we bought it, however, we got a cone that was meant for carafes so we did not have to hold the filter in place as we poured, which regular Meita filters required. .

Dorothy, I read my entire manual and no where does it state a model# for the filter disks. I do have a phone number it listed to order filters through Mr. Coffee, maybe they can help 1-800-672-6333. My coffee maker is the FT series if that helps, sorry I couldn't answer your question.

Good Question! You would need to purchase #4 cone style coffee filters (for 8-12 cup coffee makers). I hope that you find this information helpful.

Yes, the Medelco GF214CB #4 Cone Permanent Golden Coffee Filter sold here on Amazon will fit if you remove the plastic handle from the coffee maker basket, i.e. the part the paper filters lie against. The handle interferes with the mesh filter seating properly but you really don't need it. You'll mostly be using the handle on the mesh filter since that's what you'll be removing to dispose of grounds. This link should work: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000TCZRKW/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Cone filters. But I dont use them. The mesh filter works great for me. When it wears out I will switch to the # 4 paper filters.

I use paper filters. You have to be careful the paper doesn't fold over because it doesn't fit perfectly. Other than that, I am very happy with the coffee maker.

Cone shaped filters are the only ones that will work correctly. Check the Chemex site for the correct size.

I just use the Mr. Coffee 12 cup basket style filters. I punch a hole in it and push down in the coffee stem. It works wonders.
