I use coffee filters in fruiting chamber holes to help keep those little gnats out of it.

I've never used a coffee filter as my jar filter, nor would I, but I have used it in place of foil to cover my jars while PC'ing. The reason being that the steam evaporates the water right off afterwards and your lids don't stay wet like they do underneath foil.

I use tyvek and then coffee filters. There is no reason not to use Tyvek as it is free and can be delivered to your doorstep. Also Staples carries Tyvek envelopes if you are in a bind and need it ASAP. Coffee filters work but Tyvek is better. Go to this link and order all the Tyvek envelopes for free and have them shipped to your door:

Link edited out

Huge Tyvek envelope at no cost to you, why wouldn't you use it??????




Don't post direct links to a government run website on here bro. That's just asking for trouble and you run the risk of screwing it up for everyone else. I'm sure RR missed it or else he would have deleted it already.

Edit: I see you've done it a few times now. Delete those links bro! It's better to just send a PM with the link.

Coffee filters are pretty good at trapping dust, but that's about it.  The more filters you use, the better your chances of using them successfully.  If you're going to use them, DON'T SHAKE YOUR GRAINS.  If your grains contact the filter, they have a really good chance of wicking contams off the filter since they're slightly moist.

One thing to take into account, also, is the brand and type of coffee filter.  Some are thicker than others, and some are more porous than others.  None of them are going to completely block contaminants.

Can you get away with it?  Yep, just like you can sometimes get away with no filter whatsoever.  Would I recommend, especially to a new grower?  Nope.

Well if you're not going to shake the grains might as well use a dry verm layer
