Hey Omen, which city are you in? or nearby in OZ? I have some contacts .... . Which might help...might not.Thanks for the suggestions both of you.
My only concern with the filtering was in regards to bleach or other contaminants but I will give this a try and see how it goes.
I was doing some reading yesterday and apparently companies are allowed up to 10% of the grounds to contain insects etc (which is commonly cockroaches?). I hope this is just a myth, not sure the validity of it.
But definitely do keep experimenting. Paper filters do some of this filtering as @GTW stated, I totally agree. This method is simple and direct. Ground coffee into paper filter inside some funnel, and Voilà! Try this same coffee with cold brew method - which is more acidity reducing, and you have a great experiment.
Also, I have been buying green beans for almost 20 years and no insects also. Some tiny stones sometimes, but rare.
