How it brews
The larger disc for the AeroPress XL, in the unbleached natural sheet rather than the white one — it fits the XL cap only and does not drop into a standard AeroPress. Its job is the same as any AeroPress paper: catch fines and oils under the pressed column for a clean cup, with the natural version differing only in the absence of bleach. A rinse before brewing is common practice. No flow class is published and there's no dependable within-seat ranking, so we leave flow unrated.

How it brews
The larger round paper disc cut for the AeroPress XL cap — a bigger seat than the standard AeroPress, so this filter and the standard one do not interchange in either direction. Like the smaller disc it works under a pressed column rather than a gravity drip, catching fines and oils so the pressed cup lands clean; the extra diameter simply matches the XL's wider chamber and larger batch. AeroPress states no flow class for it and there's no dependable within-seat ranking, so we leave flow unrated rather than invent one. Brewers who dislike any trace of paper tend to give it a rinse before brewing.
