- The Graycano is a conical cast-aluminium dripper, and the GC01 is its own size-2 cone paper tuned to the dripper's "Lava Rib" geometry. Graycano states that V60 size 02 and Melitta 102 filters also fit the dripper, so we record a V60-cone seat as the closest match; the GC01 is a true cone. No published flow rating, so flow is left unrated. (This is the standalone Graycano brand, not GINA's cone papers.)

- 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.
