How it brews
The small round paper disc that drops into the cap of a standard AeroPress — the same filter covers the Original, the Clear and the Go, which all share the one cap seat. Its job is simple: it sits under a pressed column of water rather than a gravity drip, so the paper mostly catches fines and oils and keeps sediment out of the cup, giving the clean finish people tend to associate with a paper AeroPress. AeroPress publishes no flow rating for it and there's no reliable within-seat ranking against, say, the metal reusable disc, so we leave flow unrated rather than guess. A quick rinse is common practice to knock back any paper note, and the XL brewer takes its own larger disc that does not fit this cap.

How it brews
The unbleached version of AeroPress's standard round paper disc — same cap seat, covering the Original, Clear and Go, just a natural-brown sheet instead of the white one. Under the pressed column the paper's job is to catch fines and oils for a clean finish, and the only objective difference from the bleached disc is the absence of oxygen bleach; any taste difference beyond a proper rinse isn't asserted here. A quick rinse is common to knock back any paper note. AeroPress prints no flow rating and there's no reliable within-seat ranking, so flow is left unrated.
