These simple reusable coffee filters are the perfect alternative to disposable coffee filters. Easy to use, and all you need to do to clean them is compost the grounds, rinse, and hang to dry. Plus, even compostable filters take a lot of water to produce and carbon to transport, so reusable filters dramatically reduce the footprint of your morning coffee ritual.

Use and care
Initially, boil your filters in fresh water to clean and shrink for about 10 minutes. For a hot brew, brew as is customary with your favorite method, compost the grounds, and thoroughly rinse filter. Hang to dry. Periodically, once every 4-6 weeks, boil the filters in fresh water to remove any accumulated coffee oils. If you'd like, you can add a scoop of baking soda to the regular cleaning process to enhance your filter.
