Never waste a drop! This standalone black conical inkwell helps you easily fill your pen. It's really helpful for when the volume gets low in your bottle, for large pens that don't fit in our sample vials, or for filling your pen from a 4.5oz Noodler's ink bottle or other bottle with a small neck opening. A disposable pipette is included.

This has worked for me, when I haven't wanted to put my whole pen or cartridge into an ink bottle.

The Little Dipper

A simple item that works quite well for not spilling ink when refilling a fountain pen. The only thing that would make this item work better would be if a tiny pouring spout were incorporated into one point on its rim. Otherwise, a valuable but inexpensive tool for the pen aficionado.

exactly what i needed

well made, and very usefuli gave mine to a friend who was just getting into fountain pens, so this was a replacement ... i think that everyone who owns a fountain pen should also own one of these

Oops - got the wrong item

I actually wanted the clear Ink Miser but accidentally ordered the black one. Returning it from Europe to the US is too expensive, so I'll include a clear one in my next purchase & hope to give joy to another ink enthusiast here.

Good size and narrow diameter for easy refilling of those last few drops of ink.

Simple but perfect

Great little device - provides just enough of a cone grade to comfortably fit a fountain pen, and it holds just the right volume of ink to fill the thirstiest of my pens! Can't believe how simple and easy this little device is!

A practical little device.

When ink level is too low in the bottle this little funnel shape is ideal to get that last little bit of ink into the pin. I wasn't sure that the base was wide enough to prevent it from tipping over so I glued it to a wider platform to prevent me from making a terrible mess when i'm using it. Easy to use with the accompanying syringe. A shout out to all of the packing personnel for the extra care that's always put into the packages that I receive. Thank you Goulet Pens!

Works like a charm.

You get ink. You get the right amount of ink. After you fill it, you can close the ink bottle first, before doing anything else. And even someone as old and fumble fingered a I am can often end the process without ink all over my fingers. What more is there to ask of it?

Almost perfect....

It was handy and easy to use, except it was hard to see the ink level unless the light in the room was bright and overhead. Next time I will get a clear one and it should be perfect!

Works great. Since noodlers inks are filled to the top. Use the pipette put some in the well and your off. I think i should have bought the clear one to.

Ink Miser

Works perfectly! Great! How did I ever do without it? My only thought about improving it would be to make the base larger to guard against tipping over.

A must for some bottles, nice to have for empty bottles.

Some inks have bottles that aren't great for filling any pen. Others are only useful when the bottle is full. This helps overcome bottle problems.

Works great, but one more thing you have to clean

Has a great shape and allows you to get a nice fill if you only have a few mLs of an ink, which can be very handy. It is a little tough to clean though, no matter how many paper towels I jam down into the bottom of it I still come up with a little bit of ink it seems, as the tip is very small and ink tends to stick a little. While the black is slightly transparent, you cannot see through it enough to see if you have cleaned it well, in hindsight I probably should have bought the clear version.

Works great!

The Ink Miser Ink-Shot Inkwell does exactly what it is supposed to do--make it easier to fill fountain pens. I am glad I purchased it.

Works great - I can't believe it's so expensive

I bought this because I have several pens that clog all the time, had bought some pen cleaning solution, and had seen a nifty video showing a pen in the cup soaking in it. When I got the product I was immediately disappointed opening the box. It is a little plastic cup. My very first thought was I can't believe I spent that much money for this. It looked like something you might get at a fast food restaurant that you would throw away at the end of the day. This is not a swipe at Goulet's, it's just a statement. Especially with the shipping costs, I was annoyed at myself for having made the purchase. In addition, I was worried that the base was too narrow so that a heavy pen would topple over if I put it in there. Nonetheless, I brought it to work and immediately found a use for it. My Metropolitan Vanishing Point had fallen off my desk on a radiator and been baking for who knows how long. I filled it with cleaning solution, filled the cup, and stuck the pen in. It worked great. Much to my surprise, it was very stable. Because it is so narrow, the pen holds fairly vertically. This not only means ink/cleaning fluid is always around the nib, it means the center of gravity is over the base so it's not tippy. The weight of the liquid adds to the weight of the cup. The small diameter means you're not wasting cleaner. If you use it for ink, you can fill very efficiently. I still think the base could be a tad wider.So it works great and I am not sorry I bought it. It did take using it to get to that point though.

Nice pen accessory

Got this to use while cleaning/filling my pens. In addition to filling, it's great to use just to hold your pen upright when the barrel is removed, prior to cleaning, and holding a converter upright so there's no spill.

Great for testing inks and filling pens

Pretty straightforward on this: agree with other users to the practicality of this as a pen filling device. Also, I use it with a dip pen to try inks and it works well. Only qualms are the the dropper included is fairly brutish (long, cheap, inaccurate - a cheap fix, but still) and the base does not grip/stay put: one bump and this will spill. It would be nice if the base was weighted and had a felt liner. Otherwise, indispensable little tool.

Makes filling pens easier!

I just got this and love it. It works great. When the ink gets low in its bottle it is hard to see, and I think I've filled my pen when I didn't. This solves that problem. I may glue a quarter to the bottom to make it harder to tip over. Robbie P. Packed it perfectly which was fortunate as the package got crushed in the mail and this survived.

Have used it Twice Already!

I am a Fountain Pen user that likes a few Inks and I was getting low and wondering what to do... Buy the Ink Miser! It's allowed me to use Goulet Samples easily with any Fountain Pen and Inks that are getting too low for me to use the bottle. Recommend!

Exactly what I needed

I switch inks often and also have two bottles with very narrow tops. This makes it easy to fill converters and dropper pens. I am very pleased with it I just wish it were a little heavier.

A Useful Accessory

This is a very useful item, especially if your ink is low in a bottle. It lets you use the last bit of ink to fill your pen. If the ink in the Miser is still not high enough to fill your pen, you can use an ink syringe to draw out the last few drops from the Ink Miser. I wish it was clear or translucent, but it still works well. I've actually been using the sample vials for this purpose, but this is easier to pour into than using a vial. Quality is good, seems reasonably robust.

It's such a Fantastic Idea, it's a wonder no one thought of it before

As soon as Goulet mentioned the ink miser & I saw the YouTube video for both the Ink Miser and the intra one, I immediately ordered both. It performs beautifully. I used to put ink into the small vials samples come in ending with knocking the vial and ink going everywhere. Now I have a stable item and NO more spills, to my husband's delight.

Great way to fill your pens

This is the perfect way to fill your pens. Stop messing around with half filled ink bottles and just get something like this to fill quickly and easily. I just dump some ink into the well and fill away. Afterwards, whatever is left i just put back into the ink bottle. This rinses clean easily to be stored until you need it next time.
