    all espresso is poured using metal/without a paper filter. I highly doubt the entire nation of Italy is going to fall over dead because they’ve never had a coffee run through a paper filter.

    Its coffee. Not cyanide. Just drink it.

        This is a great example of a “micro optimization.” It feels good but ultimately does jack shit to help you.

        There are studies suggesting adding paper filters to coffee increases bad cholesterol, and cardiovascular disease kills more people than cancer every year. Whoops? Brussel sprouts ever so slightly elevate your chances of getting cancer. Anything with an ethyl in it does too.

        All of this to say, pick better risks to worry about. Everything is a tradeoff. Better chance you die in a freak car accident rather than developing cancer from drinking coffee that was filtered without paper. It is not worth the fuss.

            Taste, environmental friendliness. Just to name a few. Feel free to ignore my comments if you don’t like them.

                French press and espresso, IMO, taste far better than pourover with paper. I also prefer metal mesh with pourover, as it allows for more of the oils to seep into the carafe. But it’s just a matter of opinion. :)

                Remember the whole trail of paper carbon impacts! Trees get cut to make them. Then they have to be cut/manufactured in a big factory, which uses energy. Then shipped to your stores, using gasoline. Finally you throw them away where they sit in a landfill (the most negligible part).

                Though to be clear, you’re still correct that the carbon impact is negligible compared to like… big oil and cow farms. So you’re right on that front. :) Worrying about the negligible is not worth anyones time when there is an elephant in the room.

                    So you DO get my point, yeah? Elephants in the room should be considered first and foremost. Drinking non-paper filtered coffee every day is trivial to your risks of getting cancer compared to so many other things in our environment. I hope it clicks for you. :)
