SIBARIST FAST/B3 cone filters

The CONE is the V60 filter that provides faster, even and continuous flow for coffee brewing. It also provides a clean and silky result in your cup. Its unique FAST and B3 Specialty Coffee Filter technology makes it possible to explore new extraction conditions and recipes, which have been limited until now.

The main differences between Sibarist FAST and B3 coffee filters lie in their flow rate, cup profile, and brewing use cases:

• Flow Rate: FAST filters offer an extremely fast flow rate, whereas B3 filters have a moderately fast flow rate.

• Cup Profile: FAST filters produce a clean, silky cup with high clarity, emphasizing brightness, floral, and fruity notes. B3 filters yield a balanced, sweet, and full-bodied cup with more texture and thickness.

• Best For: FAST is ideal for modern light roasts, high-extraction recipes, bigger brews, and batch brewing. It allows finer grinds and highlights acidity and juiciness without over-extracting. B3 works well with fermented or washed coffees emphasizing sweetness, and it is more forgiving, suitable for medium to coarser grinds and smaller brews.

• Brewing Experience: FAST expects more precise control and grind adjustments for finer grind size; B3 is more forgiving for less precise pouring or brewing methods.

• Material and Design: Both are made from high-quality Abaca fibers with superior rigidity and durability. B3 filters provide a minimum contact surface to avoid bypass and produce cleaner cups with sweetness.

• Usage: Both are single-use specialty filters designed to enhance clarity, extraction, and sweetness, trusted by world brewing champions.

Overall, FAST filters focus on speed, clarity, and brightness with finer grinds, while B3 filters focus on a balanced, sweeter, and fuller-bodied cup with a slightly slower but still fast flow rate. The choice depends on coffee type, brewing style, and desired flavor profile.
