How it brews
Sibarist's fast abaca flat-bottom paper cut for the Etkin's 8-cup batch bed. It sits in the flat-basket family and interchanges with flat papers of the matching fit. It's the same high-permeability, low-clog abaca sheet as the rest of the FAST line, shaped for a larger batch bed, which Sibarist frames as fast-draining so the grind and pour set the pace rather than the paper (its own claim, not measured here). Specialty, single-use, with the usual pre-brew rinse.

How it brews
MHW-3Bomber's flat-bottom paper in the 155 class, a cellulose sheet for flat-bed brewers. It sits in the flat-basket family and interchanges with other 155-class flat papers there rather than with cones. MHW-3Bomber publishes no fast/medium/slow class, so we leave flow unrated. The flat bed spreads the coffee wide the way flat-bottom papers do; a pre-brew rinse is the usual habit.
