Hi. I dont use them, its easy enough to rinse out. Personal preference really. :)

I highly recommend use of the paper filters in the Acme 550 Juicerator. If not used, the tiny holes in the spinner will become clogged. This part is extremely hard to clean if the paper filters are not used.

I don't use any paper filters with it although you could if you prefer. It is a regular style basket -- typical of percolators -- so you should look for coffee ground for percolators or grind your own so not as fine as for drip pots.

No paper filters are required. There is a replaceable filter that comes with the unit. You wash it after every use. There is no bitter taste or acid when using this filter.

Yes, I use the standard 10-12 cup paper filters in mine. I love this coffee maker.

Yes, there are a couple paper filters that come with the vacuum; after that you can purchase them on Amazon.com. They are a tad delicate, but I've managed to make each one last through several cleanings.

Yes, you do need to do the traditional manual filtering through cheesecloth. I wish someone would figure out how to circumvent this step.

Must setup correctly. I always use paper filter. Make sure it's only 1 paper filter.

Yes, but you still need to buy paper filters. Also included is a little water filter.

Yes, it takes a standard #4 paper filter. I think you can buy a reusable gold filter too.

You would have to buy one separate if you wanted one. I just use paper filters.

They do not REQUIRE the paper filters, however, you do get a very small amount of coffee "debris" in the bottom of your cup, which is so small it is not a problem for either my husband or myself. I have not tried using them for anything other than coffee. Hopefully, someone else can answer your question concerning the other items.

permanent filters are just another big mess to clean up. Stick with the paper. If its the expensive cone shaped filters your trying to avoid, stick a regular basket type filter in the melita cone. it will work.

For Yes I need to put paper filter because some of the coffee is not filter from the hole and so the coffee you drink have coffee fiber on it, but its up to you weather u like to put the paper filter or not its ok by me because I use it with or without the paper filter

No, you don't NEED IT but you get a little fine grounds without it. Can't see wasting the money of filters....

No paper filter - comes with gold filter - they last at least a couple of years
