- Cafec's higher-abaca cone paper — the "+" signalling a larger share of abaca fibre than the standard ABACA cones — sold in Cup1 and Cup4 sizes for V60-style cones. Abaca tends to build a more open, durable sheet, and Cafec's pitch across the ABACA range is flow with clarity, but the maker prints no fast/medium/slow class for this paper, so we leave flow unrated rather than guess. It fits the V60-cone seat and interchanges with other cone papers there. A pre-brew rinse is the usual habit.

- How it brews
- The V60-sized version of Able's reusable stainless cone. Like its larger Chemex sibling, the metal mesh passes oils and fine particles that paper traps, so it pushes a V60 toward more body and more sediment at the cost of clarity. It drains quickly through the perforated wall, so a coarser grind than your paper V60 recipe usually keeps it from running muddy. "Fast" here is community consensus, not a measured figure. Choose it for zero waste and a heavier cup; keep paper if cup clarity is the priority.
