How to buy coffee filter paper?
Bleached filter paper vs unbleached filter paper
Coffee filter paper is mostly made of wood, and the pulp color after wood cooking is mostly brown, and it takes several stages of bleaching process to turn white.
The difference between coffee filter paper bleaching and non-bleaching is as follows:
1. Bleaching: the coffee filter paper looks whiter when it is bleached.
2, no bleaching: refers to coffee filter paper without bleaching, filter paper looks close to light brown.

To put it simply, filter paper is generally used to filter coffee, to filter the ground coffee beans and coffee powder, and to filter the extracted coffee liquid into the cup. The filter paper can also filter the coffee oil to get a clean coffee solution. A good filter paper can filter out impurities. Coffee tastes more mellow and the aroma is more obvious.
Advantages: high convenience, throw away after use, can also change the brand; flush out taste is cleaner; less impurity smell.
Disadvantages: less environmentally friendly use of paper; non-bleached paper will have paper flavor; oil will be filtered out, resulting in coffee taste non-greasy, get a cleaner taste. Daily brewing | sharing experience, brewing a cup of balanced taste and coffee extraction with grease

Although we have been comparing bleached and unbleached coffee filter paper, this is not the only difference between filter paper. The quality of filter paper is also important for keeping coffee utensils clean and good filtration flow rate. It seems easy to say here, but in fact, the impact is really great.
In addition, be sure to choose filter paper that suits the size of the filter cup, and pay attention to the thickness and density-too thin and sparse filter paper will make the water flow too fast, while too thick and dense filter paper will filter out more coffee grease (such as Chemex).
Is it necessary to develop the filter paper? Wash? Or not? This is a problem.
For beginners, one way is to fold filter paper, wash filter paper, warm filter cups, anyway, just do it, but some old Japanese drivers don't wash filter paper, so they can't imagine, "Why do you have to wash filter paper?" I'm confused.
It doesn't matter, let's analyze it in detail:
1. Consideration of removing pulp flavor
In fact, the above introduction of bleached unbleached filter paper, the original pulp filter paper has not been washed, the flavor of wood pulp is still very strong, so it is necessary to wash the filter paper. And bleached filter paper, residual paper flavor and bleaching taste due to the brand system, high-quality filter paper can indeed be processed to be very clean, there is little difference between washing and unwashing.
2, consideration of suitability with filter cup
Washing filter paper helps to improve the fit of filter paper filter cup, and helps to fit the rib design and cooking principle of filter cup, but in most cases, the suitability of unwashed filter paper and filter cup is a little worse than that of preheating and pre-washing.
3. Consideration of coffee oil absorption by filter paper and initial extract.
Without washing the filter paper, the filter paper will absorb some of the moisture and grease during steaming, and bring out some suspicious odors.
Therefore, for the complete consideration of extraction flavor, it is more appropriate to rinse the filter paper.

Metal coffee strainer
![](/uploads/allimg/180816/11-1PQ6122532646.jpg)
Metal filter screen, omitting the less environmentally friendly filter paper, as long as it is cleaned and can be reused after use, it is also durable and strong made of stainless steel.
Suggestion: use a clean toothbrush to remove oil from baking soda powder after use, so that the next brewing taste will not be affected. The metal coffee filter can also extract the oil, which will be thicker and closer to the original taste of the coffee beans, and can be different from the filter paper in the blind test.
Advantages: it is more environmentally friendly and can be reused through rinsing; it can drink the original taste of coffee and has a thick taste.
Disadvantages: the fine powder is easy to cause excessive extraction and lead to excessive bitterness; the fine powder will pass through the strainer into the coffee and may have a dregs taste.

Coffee filter cloth
![](/uploads/allimg/180816/11-1PQ6122549241.jpg)
Usually used in flannel filter cloth, Siphon siphon, the more troublesome is cleaning and preservation, if not really clean the grease on the filter cloth, over time will affect the taste, after washing, but also need to soak water to store in the refrigerator, can not be used many times a day, is a more troublesome point. The coffee taste is between metal and filter paper, balancing the advantages of both.
![](/uploads/allimg/180816/11-1PQ6122604311.jpg)
Suggestion: filter cloth cleaning and preservation need to be done, otherwise there may be rag smell, it is recommended to use baking soda powder to clean when available, while flannel filter cloth has better permeability and insulation, brewing coffee aroma and taste are called saturated and rich.
Advantages: the fiber is thicker than filter paper, and the grease will stick to make water and coffee have longer contact and fusion.
Disadvantages: it is not easy to save, it takes time and labor, and more practice and skills are needed.

Comparison of three filtering methods
All three have their own advantages and disadvantages. Filter paper is only a small part of coffee brewing, and there are many factors affecting the taste of coffee. The taste of each kind of filter paper is different because of the different flow rate, so you can try several more. Friends who like the original taste of coffee can refer to filter cloth and metal filter screen, which can better retain oil and original taste, while those who like clean and refreshing taste can use filter paper.
It is not difficult to make a cup of dripping coffee, but it is not easy to make a good cup of dripping coffee. Like Italian coffee, there are many variables that you need to grasp. Filter paper is a variable. For example, water quality, water injection, drip rate time, coffee grinding degree and so on, you need to grasp each variable and constantly adjust it, so as to finally find the kind of experience you need for your taste buds.
We Qianjie Cafe still prefer this KONO coffee filter paper trickling hand filter paper, as long as it is a conical filter cup, whether it is Hario V60 filter cup or KONO filter cup can be used, and the KONO filter paper imported from Japan is medium, neither thin nor thick, medium filtration, ideal fit with filter cup when water injection.

Hanging-ear coffee
Finally, a kind of filter paper is introduced, which is more convenient to hang up the ear.
The coffee powder used in hanging-ear coffee is ground from freshly roasted coffee beans. Hanging-ear coffee can maximize the original flavor of coffee, usually by thermal extraction.
Because there will be coffee grounds, so, there should be filter bags!
/ /
Filter bag material
The material of hanging ear is called degradable non-woven filter bag.
![](/uploads/allimg/180816/11-1PQ6122R92W.jpg)
The inner membrane of the hanging ear is a filter layer with such a mesh, which homogenizes the rate of coffee flow.
When the hot water seeps through the coffee powder, the essence and oil are extracted, and finally the coffee liquid seeps evenly through the filter hole.
Degree of grinding: according to this design, the degree of grinding should not be too fine, close to the size of sugar.
Tear, hang, rush and take four steps.
A cup of warm, fragrant coffee is ready

There is also a kind of coffee bag on the market, which is similar to the tea bag. It is freshly roasted coffee beans after grinding, according to the cup quantity encapsulated in a disposable filter bag, made into a convenient coffee bag, the material is like tea bag material, mostly non-woven, gauze and so on, this material needs to be soaked.
