@Gina just a word of warning, using any means of making coffee that doesnt involve a paper filter causes **extremely** high cholesterol. The paper filter filters out a chemical (cafestol) in coffee beans that causes dangerously high cholesterol when consumed

@freemo @Gina I've been a French press user for 10-15 years. This is news to me, thanks for the heads-up.

Side-note, however ... at first glance, it sounds like They think this cafestol is probably responsible for many of the good medical benefits from coffee, too.
