Grocery store coffee filters are good for removing hair and large
particles but pass a lot of smaller stuff which will show up on
enlargement. For really good filtration I would suggest Chemex brand
coffee filters available on the net. They are a bit more expensive but
are made of laboratory filter paper while the cheap filters are not.
Another advantage is that they will fit an 8 inch funnel and are more
suitable for filtering large amounts of liquid such as fixer.

Subject: Coffee filters
Just found another good reason to drink coffee. My negatives
have had a lot more junk in them than usual, and I've started thinking
it was coming from the fixer. So I poured the fixer through a coffee
filter and was surprised by what I found. There were those tiny bits of
fiber and flecks of who-knows-what, and just little particles of dirt
that I've been finding on my film. I think I'll be doing this more
often.
