Tag: Reusable filters

According to the American Heart Association, unfiltered coffee consumption can raise LDL (bad) cholesterol levels due to compounds called cafestol and kahweol. So, do reusable coffee filters remove cafestol, or are paper filters the only way to minimize these compounds for a healthier cup?

According to a study in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology, people who drank filtered coffee had lower rates of cardiovascular disease than those who drank unfiltered brews. To understand what kind of coffee filter is healthiest, it's essential to look at how different materials affect the final brew's composition.
