Me and mom just enjoyed the Nguyen phin drip experience. Wow. Proud of your work. We without hesitation enjoy the Vietnamese coffee and recommend your products. Thank-you to the Nguyen staff and tradition. From Canada eh!
Very much enjoying the taste of Vietnam. Been using the sweetened condensed milk. I like milk and sugar in my coffee. Viewed some of your videos on how to make it and the story behind your business.
Love the mug. So light almost thought it was plastic.
Enjoying the Hanoi right now. I would love to taste the other two included in kit. Since I’m the only one drinking it. Don’t want the coffee to go bad.
Would be cool if you had a mini taster pack of all your brands. Then could figure out most favorite. That’s probably not economical.
The kit included 4oz phinn, for expresso. Don’t remember if that was stated what was included in the kit. If I knew it was expresso size. Probably would have included next size up with my order. I can always order later on with another mug.
Good luck with your business adventure. Thanks for sharing a part of Vietnam.

Good stuff
The coffee itself is really great but that little brew cup thingy that came with it is useless. Way too small and the coffee gets cold before it finishes brewing.

the coffee is so delicious and the phin filter is so fun to use!!
At this time, unfortunately, we do not sell replacement parts for the phin filter. Please contact hello@nguyencoffeesupply.com for further information and assistance.
How is the phin filter different from pour over?
Phin filter brewed coffee is more concentrated due to the water to coffee ratio. Additionally, phin filters don’t require a paper filter, so the extraction process and final cup differ from pour over.
Our pricing is derived from a variety of factors such as fair labor wages, costs of materials, and production. Our producers are a small, woman-owned team in Vietnam who make our phin filters in batches. Phins at supermarkets may have been mass produced in factories without any information provided on origin or sourcing. We’re striving to be as transparent and ethical as possible through every level of our business, and the prices are an effort to reflect that.
Why is my phin filter dripping too fast/too slow?
Factors including how you're grinding, what’s your grind size is, and whether or not you have dialed in the grind size to the phin filter affect total brew time.
For Nguyen Coffee Supply phin filters, we recommend a fine grind size and a 2:1 ratio of water to coffee. For other phin filters, we recommend experimenting to dial in according to that specific filter.
For example, coffee that is too coarse will drip too fast. Using less than 2 tbsp of coffee in a 4 oz phin filter may result in a fast drip as well.
