I have 4 in use at the moment that I rotate through depending which one I grab. Every one has the flashing and each lets through a bit of fines. Personally, it doesn't bother me. Neither do the little bits that come through the Swiss Gold or the French Press What would you use to grind them with? Obviously not the old Black & Decker bench grinder. My thought is you would end up with a very fine channel or a flat spot. In either case, a ruined filter rod. John Respect the bean.

Probably a Dremel tool I also don't mind if some grinds find there way past the glass rod Remember I drink quite a bit of Greek/Turkish coffee I was just questioning the performance of the filter and if it was normal I guess you have answered my query So I will leave the glass rod well alone & enjoy the coffee Many thanks KK I home roast and I like it.

A very small file with a concave cutting surface. The chances of slipping with the Dremel, cutting too deep are great. At least for me, anyway. But leaving it as is, is a good thing too.
