How it brews
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 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.
