If it's paper it's biodegradable.
100% right! Paper is wood-pulp(organic). There is no synthetic

dig them into the soil, either way is good.

They also have chlorine and other preservative matter. Do whatever.

Not if you use the unbleached ones...
Those make better tasting coffee anyway.
Hey OM. You are right about the taste. The bleached ones do break down
completely too.
