Should You Use Gold Tone Coffee Filters?

The very first coffee filter was invented by the commercial coffee giant Bunn. Since that time, coffee filters have been constructed from a number of materials, including paper, cloth, gold tone, and even bamboo!

If you are interested in using gold tone filters, they provide the best choice in brewing in that they allow the essential oils of the coffee beans to drip into your cup of Joe. Paper filters are highly absorbent and remove many of the essential oils that are responsible for giving coffee its body and flavor.

Gold tone filters are also highly economical since they are not disposable. If you properly maintain your gold tone filter, it can last for years at a time, and it will save you money in the long run as opposed to purchasing disposable filters.

Helpful Coffee Brewing Tips

No matter what your preferred coffee brew method may be, here are some helpful tips for you!

Always remember to use the coarsest grind of coffee available for your French Press. If the grounds are too fine, it will be difficult to press down your plunger to extract the French Press brew.
• You can also heat milk in your microwave or on the stove, and then place it in your French Press. When you press down the plunger back and forth for several minutes, it will froth the milk for an easy addition to your daily coffee.
• If you like drip brewed coffee, you may want to consider using a permanent mesh filter, which comes in many home coffee makers, to leave more essential oils in the brew for a better taste.
• If you are a fan of the Moka pot or stovetop espresso maker, then make sure not to pack your grounds too tightly, or it will cause problems in your brew.
