Tricky to fold at first, but simple once you get the hang of them. When using the Orea V4, I find I extract more with wave style filters (though the medium size doesn't sit exactly right which could be the issue here). Still better and faster than the other available options!

The team at eight ounce is amazing, they took the time to nerd out with me over a drawn down issue I was having. I use the Hario Switch but have the Niche Zero which was creating a lot of fines that was slowing the pours and making some questionably tasting coffee.

The SIBARIST paper really tackled the issue with faster draw downs and the design of the flat bottom. Although an expensive filter, is you occasionally make pour over then it may be worth the money.

Just started with Sibarist paper filters. Definitely interesting way folding them. The hybrid ones bring better experience than the fast (origami edition) ones. Will keep experimenting with other light/ medium roasted beans

I did a comparison with the FAST FLAT filters on the Orea v4, and I felt like the extraction is less with the B3 paper.

I have purchased both the flat and hybrid variants of these filters, and so far I have enjoyed using them. In comparison to other filters I have used, like the untabbed Hario filters and Kalita options, I find that I can push a coffee finer in grind without running into issues with astringency. These filters have helped me get more out of some the lighter roasted coffees than I could with other filters. With that said, I do have to point out that it took me a decent amount of time to figure out how to properly and consistently fold each filter, but maybe that's a me problem rather than the filters. I really do enjoy the resulting cups from these filters, and would recommend picking up a pack to at least experiment with. For me, these will be reserved for special coffees I get to try, as the price point doesn't make sense for me to use as a daily driver filter.
