fwiw, those paper filters are reusable many times without degradation. Even just using them 2-3 times, you'd be using less than an A4 sheet worth of paper over a month. Does that really move the needle in terms of waste? I mean, we probably throw away many times that on food packaging every day...

- adwi 7y agoYes, and the inventor said he went with paper instead of metal because it tastes better and doesn’t allow sediment into the cup. Trying both I came to the same conclusion. I reuse a filter ~5 times. Bonus: you don’t need to “burn” the filter every time to remove paper taste, and after a rinse you can just leave it in the filter holder to dry so it’s ready to go immediately.
- organsnyder 7y agoI was impressed that Aeropress actually recommends reusing the paper filters.
