Hi Allen, I have a question about the paper filters. I rinse and reuse mine from 3-5 times drying the filter between each use. This works fine and the coffee tastes as good on the last use as on the first one. My question is this: Does the filter continue to filter out the LDL cholesterol with multiple use? – From Meredith K.

We had an independent lab test the percent of LDL-promoting diterpenes filtered out by a new AeroPress paper filter and by one that had been reused ten times. After ten pressings the diterpenes were slightly higher, but still so low as to be considered negligible.
