Product Information

Measure the coffee into the filter paper, start with 60g of coffee for every 1 litre of water used (adjust + 10g according to taste) or 1 rounded dessertspoon per cup.

The bags are 100% compostable despite the plastic and maintain sturdiness with their tear-resistant configuration and double-seam. If you're looking for filter papers for your AeroPress, Chemex, V60, or Kalita Wave, then we've got you covered.

This will minimise any paper taste getting through to the end brew and allow the coffee to filter through easier. The mesh sieve and the teabags will give you the best flavor results, but you may not have them lying around.Gabriel says that he thinks the majority of “experienced baristas” prefer unbleached paper filters, which have more tightly-knitted fibres. A range of raw materials are used to manufacture filter papers, from mineral fibre pulps and fibre crops to softwoods and hardwoods. This also means that they won’t rip or break when wet, which is good news for anybody not after a coffee full of sediment and bits of paper.

These filters are a standard size that fit most filter coffee machines no matter what brand, and they’re ideal for any 8-10 cup filter coffee jug. A filter’s basic function is simple: it must separate the grounds from the brewing water during extraction to produce a clean-tasting filter coffee, with minimal or no sediment. They’re wrapped in packs of 50 which is great for keeping the other ones safe until they are ready to be used.

We only use chlorine-free, oxygen bleached ECF Cellulose Paper (ECF = Elementary Chlorine Free), this reduces the papery taste that you can often get with other filter papers, and has much less environmental impact than traditional chlorine-bleached papers. Earlier this year, our Quality Control Coordinator travelled to Nicaragua on a sourcing trip to meet our Direct Trade partners, the Mierisch Family. For those who don’t own a temperature-controlled kettle, Hiro suggests leaving the kettle at room temperature for 5 minutes after boiling.

The Filtropa brand is well known and loved for their papers, and not only are they great quality, but they are also great value.

As flow rate changes, it alters what scientists refer to as “mass transfer” – the speed at which water moves through the ground coffee. The various sizes available will fit any size of V60, and they are also available in bleached white if you prefer. They’re now renowned for their coffee-making expertise and work hard to ensure that every aspect of the company is run along the most eco-friendly, energy-efficient lines. Once you have the fibres], the papers are then press-heated together on the sides to make a conical shape, or whatever shape it needs to be,” Hiro says. Plus, as they come ready-made as a bag, they are super easy to just pop into your filter and get ready.
