How can I effectively clean and maintain my Chemex reusable filter for optimal performance?

To effectively clean and maintain your Chemex reusable filter for optimal performance, rinse it thoroughly after each use with warm water and a mild detergent. Allow it to air dry completely before storing it. Periodically soak the filter in a solution of water and vinegar to remove any built-up oils or residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals or scrubbing too vigorously to prevent damage to the filter.
