How it brews

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 B3 version of Sibarist's abaca cone paper for V60-style cones, in S (01) and M (02). Where Sibarist's FAST papers are cut for high permeability and clarity, B3 is a lower-porosity sheet that Sibarist rates as medium flow — the trade being more contact time, more body and more retention on the same cone. That medium class and its low clog sensitivity are the maker's own framing, not measured here. It fits the V60-cone seat and interchanges with other cone papers there; a pre-brew rinse is the usual habit.
