Have you ever tried any of these coffee filter uses? Also, do you have any other suggestions?
No I have never tried the coffee filter uses... But I will definitely try them all...👍🥰
We have an older, but still in good condition handheld Shark vacuum that the paper in the permanent, cleanable filter had deteriorated in. Due to it's age, a replacement filter was not to be had at all. After thinking about it a while, I cut the deteriorated (and holey) filter material out of it framework, and a large basket filter fit over it perfectly. Just like that the vac is useable again.
Yes, I have tried and still do several of these. Thanks for the refresher though 👏😊💯
I have a very small Mr. Coffee-like machine which takes very small filters. However, having cats I purchased water fountains which need filters, which are almost impossible to find here in Israel. Solution? I cut the small filters to the size of the filter in the water fountain and insert into water fountain. Seems to work very well and I save lots of money on purchasing the filters via Amazon and import fees, which costs almost as much as the product themselves.
I use them to wipe my ass
I use them to line the bottom of my flower pots before putting in potting mix. I figured if they filter water for coffee without the grounds leaking into the pot, they will work for dirt in flower pots.
Eventually they will disintegrate.
@@ginger6582 yes, one would presume they disintegrate eventually, but so far, no matter what kind or brand I use, they are still fully intact when it's time to replant to a new pot. This makes coffee filters low on my list for composting.
i use them under plates when stacked to prevent scratches
❤The tea 💡❕
Thank you. I never thought of coffee filters to have so much use for.
Thank God for coffee filters! I rarely drink coffee but use them in other ways, for eg. as diy tea bags to make my own customized tea blends. I also add spices to them. Sometimes I don't tie the top, I just give it a good twist. You can also save the strings from tea bags and use them as ties.
Right! I am amazed! 👍
Or bread bag ties, I don't have the patience to wrangle with tea bag strings
Works really good for cleaning windows. You can get in the corners and the crevices easily.. Get all the gunk out . Paper towels always break up into pieces. Coffee filters do not. Works wonderful. No lint or dust left
behind.
Thank you for sharing 😊
Love these ideas! Never heard before😊
Thanks for sharing...👍
Awesome thanks so much great ideals
Use coffee filters with compost for flower beds and indoor planters.
Thanks again for sharing
Just by this one informative video, I will be subscribing! Thanks ☺️
You can also use coffee filters to clean eyeglass’ they work great.
If they aren't plastic lenses.
@@robreuler144well - most of my eyeglasses in the past 30-40 +++ years have been plastic lenses!
Best to use unbleached filters (iMHO) (. The brown ones. ) if using for consumption.
Great information! We learn something new everyday! ❤
Wow! Very good!

Thanks Great ideas👍🏼🍁🍂🎃🍂🍁
- GENIUS - !!!
Thanks
I USE THEM TO COVER FOOD IN MICROWAVE👍👍
Will they keep air out of food?
Great ideas
I was thinking about stuffing the filters with lint then soaking them in oil to make fire starters.
Yes, lint from your clothes dryer screen.
Those greasy filters from fried food? Stick them in a jar. They will make good firestarters.
Just a health reminder: Re-using cooking oil changes the oil into a different chemical arrangement, making it a trans fat and an artery clogger. Most seed oils are genetically modified already, and have been bleached and heated, even before you use them. If you repeatedly use high heat for frying or deep frying, you are putting a substance into your body that the mitochondria cannot process, and the body will store it in your arteries. Always fry on low heat using non-seed oils like avocado, coconut olive oil or animal fat like ghee, butter or beef fat. Once heated, it should be disposed of. Rancid oils kept in the refrigerator are terrible for your health.
Weird. I always use some leftover oil because it helps brown the food. I’m almost 80 and am pretty healthy.
@@graciaschlafly7183 I understand. But using leftover oil that has been heated already is not good for you. Seed oils like safflower, corn, soy, canola or mixtures of those are genetically modified oils and are not good for you even BEFORE heating. Oils have further been bleached. My suggestion would be to always use fresh olive or avocado oil, or ghee, a good grade of butter, beef fat from low cooking temperatures or even chicken fat. Clogged arteries can be cleared out, but it must start with diet.
@@yellowbird5411 TMI, growing up there was always a coffee can with used cooking oil, lard, bacon grease used for frying....still here
@@greenonions7978 I'm glad you are still here. But so many are not, due to clogged arteries, heart attacks and strokes due to eating oils that the body cannot handle. Re-heating oils produces similar chemical arrangement as trans fats. They were supposed to pull it off the market due to it's health-destroying properties, but didn't. We can still find many foods with "hydrogenated vegetable oils" in them. Look inside an empty pan that has deep fried foods. You often see a layer of a shiny brown film on the sides. The chemical composition is similar to shellac. And that is what it looks like. This "shellac" is what is foreign to nature. It doesn't exist in nature. Your body cannot break it down, so it stores it.
Thank you
I always use coffee filters for tea bags or even when I’m making soup or bone broth. I put my herbs in near my spices and I put them in the soup and then I take them out when it’s done. I also use them as covers when I do my ferments like vinegar and Kiefer . But I’m glad I watch this because you taught me other things I didn’t think about using them for.❤Thanks
When one couldn't find toilet paper, you can use coffee filters to clean/wipe yourself. Just don't flush, put in a bag instead!
Funny. At 5:50, guy apparently has never used a cork screw!
That’s what I thought! No wonder there’s cork in the wine.🤪😂🤣
Restaurant on the corner used stacks of them to stop bleeding in car accidents. Crashes every week. I ran out of bathtowels quickly as they went with the ambulances. Filters are cheap and disposable.
Repairing torn loudspeaker cones.
Wadding for muzzleloading shotguns.
I use them to blot my lipstick and blot my face. I use it for under the cooking oil bottle to catch any excess oil. Thanks for sharing y ideas i am going to try them . Thanks again
At the beginning, you talked about making a "Sachet". You can also put "potpourri" in a recycled coffee filter.
same thing 🙂
oops...i see it means something different here. Usually it means the same, but here they mean odor-absorbing, instead of adding a pleasant smell.

1. Drain yogurt.
2. After soaking frying pan, use coffee filters to strain water out into the sink. Far less grease ends up in the drain! I use two or three layered in a colander.
I use mine to make hash oil😃
I used them to line my small air fryer.
"I was excited to get an air fryer, but after getting one, I had no idea about the mess it makes when cooking wings - it's like dealing with a grease pit."
Is there a concern of them catching on fire?
They haven't
Large cup cake baking cup❗️🗣📢👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🧁
Store the used greasy coffee filters in a jar for when you go hiking. Good firestarters.
I make coffee filter flowers using food coloring or markers.
The wine cork opener was done wrong…the lever has a notch to leverage the cork out…was pulling instead of placing the slot one the rim of the bottle.
He had one job!
No wonder there was cork in the wine!
That is fantastic
When I need to strain tuna I remove the lid insert coffee filter put back the lid and press lid into can. The filter fills the gap between the lid and can. You can remove as much of the oil/water out just by pressing the lid into the 🥫 can. Hopefully this makes sense.
I drain the tuna and give the broth to my cat...
@@itsajahthingMy close family members have always have rescued 😺 cats, 🐶 dogs, 🐍 snakes, 🐦 birds, 🐢 turtles and other animals that cross our paths. We always managed to find their owners or find them a new home after a period of time. You can't turn them over to the local so called shelter as they will put the animal down. We only adopted them out to a new family after we searched for the owners. Unfortunately a lot of those people will not answer any of the ways we try to contact them for various reasons. We have rescued several cats (ferals) that have had kittens. My nephew rescued two female kittens and had them fixed. I'm in the process of getting a male kitten 🐈 fixed. Anyways we have more than our share of cats living in our home. Just remembered that I rescued a very young German Shepherd puppy that was hit by a car 🚗. When I tried to take him to the shelter they wanted to put him down as it would have cost them to care for him until they could adopt him out. He turned out to be a pure breed German Shepherd. I ended up taking care of him myself. After a couple of months he was doing well. I ended up keeping him for 10 1/2 years before I had to put him down. That was the hardest thing I ever had done. He was my friend who watched after me. He woke me up late at night I couldn't figure out why? When I was going to the bathroom I collapsed, starting having seizures and went into a coma. I had a aneurysm that almost killed me. After a brain operation I survived thanks to my four legged friend . I owe my life to him 😭😞😭😞. I'm going to be 72 years old in about a month. So I can't get another German Shepherd as I don't know how long I have left on this planet. When I pass I want to be cremated and having my ashes spread where I spread his ashes. At least we will be together again. 🇺🇲✌️☮️🕊️ Peace and Love. A Proud Viet Nam Era Veteran 🇺🇲🪖 age 71 homeless (long story) and living on the streets of Sunny Southern California. Thanks for having patience with my long story. As I have PTSD and many other mental health issues.
"I open the can, leaving the lid on, and squeeze the salty liquid down the sink. While still holding the lid on, I run water over the top of the can, continuing to squeeze the lid. Repeat until the water coming out of the can is clear."
@@itsajahthing. I know cats love this but check for salt content. You might want to give infrequently or just a few drops.
@@twinfin8571 Whenever I make tuna salad which is about once every couple of months or so in the summertime...he actually looks at me with those tuna broth eyes like he's asking me for it...sweet boy...especially if he thinks I'm preparing to make it...waits for those tuna cans to come out...
Filters have a lot of chemicals on them. Was a big issue years back. Just saying
Yes!!
Use unbleached, brown ones. Might be better.
3 ninjas, tumtum and colt made the best use of coffee filters.. if you know, you know.
❤️👍
If you don't have a coffee filter , a section of paper towel will work .
NOOOOO paper towels have nasty chemicals in them!!!!!
@@jimmio1622 I meant for emergency use , no coffee filters .
I don’t see why the ones that are naturally processed can’t be used instead. Color won’t matter.
Not sure if I'd buy coffee filters for other purposes since i don't drink coffee as they aren't always inexpensive. My question is, how do you reuse a coffee filter if it was previously used for brewing coffee? I mean, you'd still have residual grounds as well as aroma from the coffee, which seems to knock out the sachet. Also, i don't believe i would that same filter for stiring seeds either.
Pretty sure all the suggestions are for unused coffee filters.
used filters are good to use in plant pots. The coffee. has nitrogen, which is really good for most plants.
The woman did not know how to use the wine opener. What she was doing was going to break the cork and allow parts to fall into the wine.
Saw that... 😂
That’s one hairy arm if is a woman
C o o l ideas❗️🗣📢👼👐🙌🙏😇🤲⚘️🌺🌷🌹
Watch out 🔥..l.put coffee filter in my microwave and it caught on 🔥 fire !!!
Had to throw microwave in the dumpster ..

they are paper, what is so difficult?
You should dump the cheese.It's heart attack food.
For some, the greasiness of McDonald's hash browns is part of their charm. It adds a certain indulgence and decadence to the breakfast experience. It's like treating yourself to a guilty pleasure once in a while. However, for others who prefer a cleaner and less greasy meal, it might be necessary to explore alternative options or modify their order to suit their preferences.
