Benefits of Permanent Coffee Filters
The use of a permanent coffee filter can be very simple and effective. Permanent coffee filters unlike the paper filters do not take away the flavor and aroma of the coffee and hence improving the quality of the coffee that one brews. Paper filters can seem to be easy to dispose and very convenient but there are more setbacks in using paper filters than using permanent coffee filters. These setbacks include, one, they absorb the coffee oils that produce the body, aroma, flavor and richness of the coffee. Second, the papers impart some of their paper components resulting to paper like taste of the coffee and also other side effects that may result from the repeated consumption of the components of the papers. Finally, in cases whereby the paper is bleached, one can notice chlorine like taste in the coffee. The permanent coffee filters are re-usable alternatives to paper filters that have many advantages in their usage.
The permanent coffee filters are made from durable stainless metal's mesh and are either gold plated or gold toned. The filters have a fine mesh but they can allow finer coffee particles to go through. Paper filters can also allow finer grind to pass through but one may prefer medium grind to get the best results from coffee.
Some of the benefits of using permanent coffee filters include they do not rob the coffee of its aroma and flavor, as they do not absorb any of the contents of the coffee; they also reduce the quantity of waste produced after filtering coffee. They save on the environment as no more trees are required to be cut to make the paper filters and they last longer as hence helping in saving more that could have otherwise been used for the purchases of paper filters, which need to be bought on a regular basis.
Other advantages of using the permanent coffee filters include they are energy savers. Energy savers in that they can make use of a simple touch 60 or the simple touch multi, which are both electrical safety shut offs. With the simple touch 60, one will never forget to turn off any electrical appliance. You only need to plug the appliance into the simple touch and set it. When the time set is complete, the simple touch will shut off the appliance's power easily and safely. The simple touch 60 or the simple touch multi can also be used on other appliances like monitors, flat irons, lamps, crock pots and more.
The cleaning and maintenance can be quite simple but one should always remember to do the cleaning to avoid over time buildup of coffee residues and oils. Always rinse the filters after every use and have them thoroughly cleaned at least once in a week, and place them on top of a rack or shelf. This will enhance the durability of your filter and provision of a better mug of coffee with its every use
