Coffee filter substitute

Asked by haleejo 10 months ago, 4 answers.

I ran out of Coffee filters and will not have time to go to the store in the morning. Is there something else I can use just for one morning?

paper towels
cheesecloth
dishcloth (preferrably a clean one)
aluminum foil with several small holes poked through it

Just a few options...as a veteran coffee drinker, I've been through the whole gauntlet (now I have a re-usable coffee filter , lol)

I've used a dishcloth with a paper towel on top of it, couldn't tell the difference, and saved me the mess of cleaning all the coffee off the dish towel :P

get a wire basket. you never run out of filters and you get much more flavor and natural oils from the coffee
