Duh…

     There are some things I can’t believe I don’t figure out on my own.  Like reusable coffee filters, what a great idea.  Too bad I just bought a whole case of filters that will last the entire season.  If you don’t purchase in bulk like me then why not make a simple switch that could help reduce the amount of trash you produce?  And even better yet, ask your favorite coffee shop to do the same.

It’s 7 a.m. – did you forget to pick up coffee filters yesterday?

The BiteBrew-tal. We know some Americanos who start getting frothy at the mouth without their morning cappuccino. Mocha better choice for yourself and the planet, and pick up a reusable filter.

The Benefits   It’s grande for the earth. Paper trash (such as regular coffee filters) takes up 40% of landfill space, and the chlorine used to bleach most filters lets off carcinogenic dioxins.

  • A thriftier cuppa. Regular paper coffee filters cost only about $10 for a year’s supply, but reusable filters save you money in the long run.
  • Not taking a latte your time. Reusable options are easy to clean.
  • If 10,000 Biters switch from disposable to reusable filters, in a year we’ll save enough paper to fill 127 burlap coffee bean sacks.

 

Personally Speaking
Jen’s used a reusable single-serve coffee filter for her morning cup since her coffeemaker went haywire one morning, and she hasn’t looked back since.
