Problem with coffee filter?
Curtis76 asked:
I have a Mr. Coffee coffeepot that uses the basket filters. The problem is that the paper filter often folds over during the brewing process, and this allows the grounds to go behind the filter. I end up with coffee grounds all over the coffee pot and in my coffee. I tried using a paper clip to secure one side of the filter, but then the opposite side of the filter collapsed. I guess I could try 4 paper clips, but I was concerned about the aluminum going through the heating process and ending up with something toxic in the coffee. Any suggestions?
