My apologies if this has been covered. I did a Bitog search and couldn't come up with anything, but I can hardly believe this would not have been discussed here.
What up with this filter??? Seems like a brilliant idea if it works. Can't find any info on how efficient it is. No idea how much the price is either. Does anyone have any real life experience with this metal reuseable filter???
