I recently found a great organic coffee filter which is 100 % organic cotton and is re useable for up to one year and is 100% made in USA.
I found it in Crosby’s Supermarket in New England.

I use a surgical stainless steel fine mesh filter. I helped in the design and distribution thru catalog sales.
Currently have several cases avilable in both basket and cone design. Simply empty used grounds in your flower bed and rinse with water.I have used mine for the last14 years.

Plastic filters are made with PET. PET is an inert plastic that has been in use for decades and has been given a clean bill of health from every world authority, including the EU. PET does not leech dioxins when frozen. It does not leech dioxins if left in boiling water. You’d have to heat PET to 700 degrees before you’d begin to release dioxins into your beverage… so unless you’re brewing your coffee with mercury instead of water, I don’t think you have anything to worry about.
