How it brews
A reusable organic-cotton cloth filter cut for the V60 in 01/02 sizes. Like nel cloth, it passes more oils and some fines than paper — landing between paper's clarity and metal's heavy sediment — while cutting single-use waste. It needs the cloth-filter care routine: rinse thoroughly after each brew, store wet (many refrigerate it), and periodically boil it clean, or old coffee oils will turn the cup stale. There's no manufacturer or community flow rating within the V60 seat, so flow is left unrated.

How it brews
Cafec's basic cone paper: a white, oxygen-bleached wood-pulp (cellulose) sheet in 01/02 sizes, distinct from the pricier ABACA line that swaps in abaca fibre. It drops into any V60-style cone seat and interchanges with other cone papers there. Cafec publishes no fast/medium/slow class for this wood-pulp cone, so we leave flow unrated rather than infer one from how the ABACA papers behave. Treat it as the everyday, lower-cost option in Cafec's cone range; a quick pre-brew rinse is common to knock back any paper note.
