Gold!

Wow, look I'm rich! I have a gold coffee filter :)

Actually, the filter is gold mesh and it was a little expensive at 5,000yen. So why did I buy it? Two reasons:


1. Coffee tastes much better made with a gold filter. If you use a paper filter, the coffee oil is soaked up by the filter and doesn't remain in the coffee. In addition, I don't know how the paper filters are made. Bleached ones have chemicals in the paper and even brown ones have been made somehow in a factory. I worry about the manufacturing process of paper filters.

2. I can keep the gold filter forever! This means that in about 2 years I will break even on my purchase. (I calculated that buying paper filters for 2 years = 5,000yen). And how many trees can I save? :)
