I have used mellita brown filters for years, and always thought they were the best-until now! For the same price, these are clearly better, at least when used with a Hario filter holder. The latter are more expensive than the plastic mellita holders, but are made from ceramic, glass or resin(chapest) and are quite beautiful in both form and function. The filters fit these perfectly. I read about these filters in The New York Times, in a piece on the best coffee bars in town.
The filters are hard to find in shops, so i ordered them from Amazon. I brew one cup at a time, wet the grounds and wait about 30 seconds (for the coffee to "bloom" ie, release oils and gasses), and then add water slowly ih a spiral pattern to wet the grounds evenly. This is simpler than it sounds and takes about 2 minutes. The Hario instructions say to pour the water directiy down the center, but the spiral method makesa richer cup. Also remember to pour hot water through the filter, in the holder, first. This washes out all the filter dust that is a byproduct of the manufacturing process in any brand of paper filter ( "soaking").

I was a diehard Chemex user until I received a Hario V60 for Christmas (OK in all fairness, I had asked Santa for it). These filters are the best I've ever used. Absolutely zero paper taste, so the intended flavor of the coffee comes out after the care taken in roasting and brewing it.
And yes, wet the filter with hot water before adding your ground coffee :)

This filter is a great balance between traditional paper filters and mesh filters. In my experience, the flow rates of different filters range from very slow (traditional coffee filter), less slow (engineered "cone" paper filters such as meletta), speedy (laser etched sheet metal filters), to super speed (mesh filters) for the same sized grinds. These are generalizations and obviously the surface area of the different filters affect the speed but this generally seems to be the case. This filter is in between the engineered paper filters and the laser etched sheet metal filters, closer to the metal ones than the paper ones. The Hario cone drippers these are made for are also designed for maximum evacuation instead of slow mixing. This open design actually (for me) makes the filtration step much easier to control. The other cone filters can suffer from clogging or unexpectedly rapid filtration if you are not paying attention and fill the filter improperly or your grinder is having a bad day - which I believe can be a problem for most people who are getting ready for work in the morning. The typical shortcomings and benefits of this design do occur such as less rich flavor than other slower paper filters and no sediment found in metal filters. This filter is a good compromise for me.

These work well with my strainer. Ironically, I settled on the most basic of coffee makers after having tried some more elaborate devices. Using a simple pour strainer turns out to be the easiest and makes a great cup of coffee.

If you do pour-over coffee, you need several things:
The Hario v60 02
a burr grinder
a way to make water hot but not boiling
a scale to measure your grounds to water ratio (15:1, 28 grams of coffee works for me)
and these snappy filters.
They're different from the cone filters you use in your machine drip brewer in that the seam can be bent over to maximize the fiter surface area, and the cone comes to a point, not a squared off edge.
Making coffee takes a little longer this way, but it fits perfectly into our morning routine.

I tried these since it was cheaper than the size 02 for the same count, and am very glad I did! I only make coffee for myself or one other person so I don't really need all that extra paper, and the grounds never even reach the top when I make coffee anyway. Its a cheaper alternative to size 02 and does the exact same job

This is a very simple product. It fits the cone. It has no odor nor taste.
They come out of the bag easily and I know of no substitute.
If you need them buy them- that's it.

What more can I say other than I like the White filters more than the Brown filters - I think the Brown filters are imparting just a tiny bit of paper / cardboard taste.
Try this if you have both the white and brown filters on hand - set both of them up in a filter holder / cone, and then pre-wet both filters. Do you notice a slight "wet paper" smell emanating from the brown filter? I do.
Note that one of the keys to using these is to make sure you pre-wet them and let the water drip through them before loading with coffee and using them. Also note these filters are custom made to fit the Hario 02 filter, and will not fit standard #2 coffee pour over cones.
By the way, I am using these on both a glass and plastic Hario V02 cone filter, as probably expected.
Thanks for reading.

Bi-Monthly purchase. The Hario v60 dripper is my favorite pour over method, and is obviously a delicious way to brew coffee. These filters are essential to the process. I have used both natural and white, I prefer the look of the natural ones but they both work well. When In first began brewing coffee at home, I used Melitta to save money, but trust me that these filters are way better, even at a slightly higher cost. Of course, be sure to rinse any filter you use before brewing pour over coffee; filters contain particles and "papery taste" that is rinsed out when rinsed with hot water. I love Hario, and my whole set-up. Don't forget to fold the perforated edge on the filter before putting it in the dripper (it will not fit correctly without the fold!). Amazon is cheapest I have found as well.

I'm not sure, but I think I get faster pourovers with this. I would think it would lead to underextracted coffee, but it tastes no different than if I were to use the regular white paper filters. I don't think I have the tongue to taste the small differences between filter paper. If you're not at that stage like me, may as well just get whichever is cheaper by the quantity when needed.
