- Sibarist's abaca cone paper for V60-style cones in S and M, offered in both FAST and B3 grades. It drops into the V60-cone seat and interchanges with other cone papers there. The FAST grade is the high-permeability sheet Sibarist rates as fast-draining, letting you grind finer for clarity without choking the bed; B3 is the lower-porosity option that builds more body and contact time (both the maker's own claims, not measured here). A pre-brew rinse is the usual habit.

- How it brews
- Kono's Meimon cone paper for the Meimon dripper, sold in MD-25 (about 2 cups) and MD-45 (about 4 cups). It's a conical paper that shares the V60 seat, so it drops into a standard V60-class cone as well as a Kono — handy if the Kono paper is easier to find than the reverse. Kono publishes no flow rating for it and there's no reliable within-seat ranking against other cone papers, so we leave flow unrated rather than guess. Pick the size to your batch, and a rinse before brewing is the usual habit for any single-use cone paper.
