- The taller variant of Fellow's flat-bottom fluted paper, cut for the larger 2-4 cup Stagg [XF]. Fellow explicitly states that Kalita Wave 185 and Blue Bottle papers also work in the XF, which is why we map its seat to Kalita Wave 185 — the Stagg paper is steeper than a genuine Wave, so the token records endorsed cross-compatibility rather than a shared mold. No manufacturer flow class is published, so flow is left unrated.

- How it brews
- The larger (2-4 cup) Wave paper — same crinkled flat-bottom cup as the 155, scaled up for the 185 dripper. The flat bed and three small drain holes hold the coffee off the walls and reward a steady, unfussy pour, which is why the Wave is a go-to when you want repeatability over a cone's higher ceiling. Kalita doesn't publish a flow class and there's no dependable within-seat ranking, so flow is left unrated here rather than invented. The 185 seat is widely shared: OREA Wave, the larger Stagg (XF) and Blue Bottle papers all drop into it.
