Viddler.com - How to make a coffee filter out of a paper towel

About This Video

This video is Public

Colin twittered he was out of coffee filters so I suggested he use a paper towel instead. Owen challenged me to make a how-to video and put it on Viddler. So I did.

Thanks so much for doing a video about this!! Haha. This is great. I'm going to do it right now!

Now, while I know paper towels work in a pinch... don't forget they leech acid into your coffee making it much more bitter than it would otherwise be. Colin, you should hook yrself up with a reusable metal filter! :)

Magdalenus, you are right. This isn't a all-the-time option, but just one that works if you are stuck. Personally, I go with a french press most of the time, no filters needed at all.
