- A budget reusable stainless cone that fits both V60-style cones and the Chemex, aimed at people who want a metal filter without the premium of an Able Kone. As with any metal filter, the mesh lets oils and fines through for a fuller, more sediment-heavy cup than paper, and it drains fast enough that a coarser grind usually behaves better. The "fast" rating is community consensus, not a lab number. It's a zero-waste, one-buy option; the trade against paper is clarity and a clean base.

- How it brews
- The Chemex-sized organic-cotton reusable, in 6/8/10-cup cuts. It's the cloth middle ground for a Chemex: more body and oils than the famously thick bonded paper, but less sediment than a metal Kone. The draw is zero waste over the paper's clarity. It carries the usual cloth upkeep — rinse after every brew, store wet, deep-clean periodically — without which the fabric holds rancid oils. No sourced flow rating within the Chemex seat, so flow is left unrated.
