Did anyone do the coffee test yet? If so, how did it turn out? I'll try it tomorrow was glad to hear of other people's "odd" places to find starch. Does anyone else have any? I'm sure allot of this has been discussed before, but it's nice for those of us who are just starting out to become more aware of these things.

Hey, Eliabeth:

I did test running a small amount of water through a coffee filter, then tested the water. It was fine. Then I thought to actually drop a little iodine on the filter itself. It also was fine. Yea! I don't have to give up coffee also.

I just got a re-usable metal filter at the Acme for three dollars. I haven't yet done the filter test, but was suprised to hear that a coffee filter tested as having no starch. Isn't all paper starchy? Maybe I am mis-informed about this subject?

All I know is I put a drop of iodine on it and it stayed the same color. I was surprised too. ~Shelli

i am not sure at all, but my theory is taht starch is "dissolvable" and paper used for filters is needed to filter things, not to disolve with them, therefore, they'd aim to make it more... nylonish, rather than paper-ic?
