Vacuum Coffee Pot

Hate the taste of paper filters in your coffee? Hotgadget has the ticket with this vacuum powered coffee pot. Here's how it works:

The top sphere holds the coffee grounds and filter, and the bottom holds the water. The pot is placed over medium heat and as the water boils it rises up (didn’t we learn about that in chemistry?), it then blends with the coffee grounds. After the coffee brews for 3-4 minutes remove it from the stove. Once the pot is removed from the stove a vacuum is created forcing the coffee to trickle back down through the filter for 5 (small) cups of perfect coffee.
