AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap, Stainless Steel Filter, and Paper Micro-Filters Bundle

The AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap's valve doesn't open until users begin pressing. This creates a buildup of pressure that brews barista-worthy espresso-style coffee. The pressure-sensitive valve stops all drip through so that users can extend their brew times and control their brew.

You can clean the AeroPress Flow Control Filter Cap with a quick rinse, or it can be cleaned in the top rack of the dishwasher.

No. The bleaching process used by filter paper manufacturers until the late 1980s used chlorine gas and the chlorine gas bleaching process created dioxin as a byproduct. In the late 1980s the filter paper mills switched to using what is called the non-elemental chlorine bleaching process (they use a chlorine compound, not chlorine gas) to eliminate producing dioxin as a byproduct.
