How it brews
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.)

How it brews
A dense abaca paper that drains slowly — in a fast dripper the paper itself can become the rate-limiter, holding water in contact with the bed for longer. Brewers tend to find more body and a rounder, more layered cup, at some cost to top-note clarity. In one roaster's blind test on a floral honey coffee — same recipe, only the paper changed — the T-92 cup read as noticeably more complex than the faster T-90 (author testimony, a single coffee, not a controlled study). Because it drains slowly it can stall on fine grinds or high-fines coffees; if drawdown creeps well past your target, grind a touch coarser.
