I’m wondering how effective a #4 Melitta coffee filter would be.

Probably not very.

I think some sort of filter was on the filtration chart, but not sure if there was a coffee filter.

“I’m wondering how effective a #4 Melitta coffee filter would be.”

Holes are too large, but apparently HEPA filters are good enough.

CV is .12 microns or so, holes in coffee filters tend to be a lot bigger. On the other hand, those CVs don’t usually fly around on their own, they live on droplets which makes the whole package bigger.
