The default V60 paper for most people: a thin, oxygen-bleached cone in the 01/02/03 sizes that matches the V60 dripper's ridges and big single hole. The V60 system is widely regarded as a comparatively fast cone, and these thin papers impose little flow restriction, so your grind and pour do most of the steering — that fast-flow reputation is community consensus, not a printed Hario flow rating. The only objective difference from the natural Misarashi version is the oxygen bleach (which is why the paper is white); any "cleaner-tasting" claim beyond a proper rinse is not asserted here.

How it brews

The middle paper in Cafec's roast-tuned ABACA line by drain speed — denser than the fast T-90, more open than the slow, light-roast T-92 — which Cafec pairs with dark roasts. Its flow starts brisk but tends to brake as fine particles accumulate in the bed, so on very fine or fines-heavy grinds it can slow toward the end of the drawdown. Dark-roast coffee gives up its solubles easily, and this middling contact time aims to develop body without pushing a developed roast into bitterness. On a light roast the balance shifts — the shorter, uneven contact can read as thin — which is exactly why Cafec sells three papers instead of one.
