How it brews
Fellow's flat-bottom, fluted paper cut for the shorter Stagg [X] dripper (~1-2 cup). It's a Stagg-proprietary flat seat, but Fellow and the community treat the X as interchangeable with the Kalita Wave 155 footprint, which is the seat we record — the papers are steeper-walled than a true Wave, so this reflects Fellow's own cross-compat guidance, not identical geometry. Fellow publishes no flow rating, so flow is left unrated.

How it brews
The small (1-2 cup) Wave paper: a crinkled, flat-bottom cup that stands the coffee bed on three little contact points inside the Wave dripper, away from the walls. That geometry is the point — the flat bed and three small holes make the brew more forgiving of an uneven pour than a single-hole cone, which is why the Wave is a common recommendation for consistency. Where it sits on flow versus other flat papers isn't something Kalita rates and there's no reliable within-seat ranking, so we leave flow unrated rather than guess. The 155 fits any 155-class flat dripper (Kalita 155, and by cross-compat the smaller Stagg and Origami-S beds).
