- 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.

- The most open, fastest-draining paper in Cafec's roast-tuned ABACA line — a low-density sheet with high crepe texture on both faces, which Cafec rates as its smoothest, quickest flow. Counterintuitively it's paired with medium-to-dark roasts, not the lightest: the quick drawdown keeps contact time short so a developed roast doesn't tip into heavy, ashy extraction. Because the paper stays out of the way, your grind and pour do the steering and it's the least fussy of the three to run clean. In one roaster's blind test on a floral honey coffee — same recipe, only the paper changed — the faster T-90 read as cleaner but less layered than the denser, slower T-92 (author testimony, a single coffee, not a controlled study). If a cup tastes thin, reach for a hotter pour or a slightly finer grind before adding agitation.
