How it brews
Timemore's own paper for the Crystal Eye B75, a 155-size flat-bottom filter made from Japanese virgin pulp. The B75 is a flat-bottom (75° wall) brewer, and its paper is explicitly cross-compatible with the Kalita Wave 155 seat (and April Small), so it interchanges with those flat papers. Timemore states no flow class and there's no reliable within-seat ranking, so flow is left unrated.

How it brews
The small (1-2 cup) Wave paper: a crinkled, flat-bottom cup that stands the coffee bed on three little contact points inside the Wave dripper, away from the walls. That geometry is the point — the flat bed and three small holes make the brew more forgiving of an uneven pour than a single-hole cone, which is why the Wave is a common recommendation for consistency. Where it sits on flow versus other flat papers isn't something Kalita rates and there's no reliable within-seat ranking, so we leave flow unrated rather than guess. The 155 fits any 155-class flat dripper (Kalita 155, and by cross-compat the smaller Stagg and Origami-S beds).
