Everybody stresses out about cleaning filter socks. I have about 30 socks. I keep them in a HD bin. All I do is run them in the washer with vinegar, steam cycle, and a double rinse.

I think you have inspired me to start a new thread tomorrow, if I get around to it. Sock laundry is a thankless chore.
