Phin Coffee vs. Filter Coffee

Phin coffee is made with a small metal filter, where water passes slowly through the coffee. In regular filter coffee, water passes more quickly through a paper filter.

Taste Difference

Coffee made with a Phin is often fuller-bodied and more intense. A paper filter, on the other hand, provides a cleaner mouthfeel.

Which one should you try?

The Phin is particularly suitable if you want a Vietnamese coffee experience and a strong cup without complex equipment.

See the Phin coffee brewing guide.
