A reusable and collapsible coffee filter for making drip brewed coffee on the go. It is compact, lightweight and uses renewable materials: a bamboo frame and handle, and ethically-sourced organic cotton (Global Organic Textile Standard certified). A broad bamboo ring is used for placing the filter on a cup, and a rounded handle for holding and moving the filter. The filter is easy to clean with water only.
